Which of the following is an acceptable way to show HTML text to google while creating a graphical image to display to users? CSS image replacement - create a rule in the CSS file that replaces the text with an image based on a given class User-agent based cloaking - show search engine agents text and browser agents the image CSS layers - show the text on a layer underneath the image atop IP-based Cloaking - show search engine IPs the text and other IPs the image
Just use an alt attribute on the image, Thats what its for. It's a bad idea to intentionally show one thing to your users and another to google.
Correct Answer: CSS image replacement - create a rule in the CSS file that replaces the text with an image based on a given class The only method that's approved by search engines is to use CSS image replacement with the exact copy in both the image and the HTML text. how to use CSS image replacement ? anyone give me sample? thanks.
I don't think is good to show one thing to google bot and another think to users. You could be banned for this practice by Google.
If we go strictly with Google guidelines, good will not like it.. but the best way to go for it would surely be CSS layers.
