    Wow, this is weird, the description for one of my sites is showing the text I have in the alt tags :eek:

    Has this happened to anyone else?

    I've always observed alt tag text appearing in the serp descriptions occasionally. Been seeing this on and off for over a year.

    Does the page validate OK?

    I'm wondering if it's just Google getting confused by broken tags..
