Good basic stuff on optimizing google image search results
Optimizing Your Site for Google Image Search
Image optimization is one of those things that falls under the “best
practices” heading for Webmasters of all shapes, sizes, and knowledge
levels. Simply put, if you are truly running your site the right way, then image optimization is a de facto benefit.
What, then, is the proper way to construct an image reference in XHTML, and what aspects of this help in Google’s image search?
Every standards-compliant, Google-sensitive image reference should contain 5 key items:
- A
srcattribute specifying the URL of the image - A
widthdeclaration in which the width of the image is specified in pixels - A
heightdeclaration in which the height of the image is specified in pixels - An
altattribute that describes the content of the image—this is the #1 element of image-oriented SEO - A
titleattribute that contains text to be displayed when the user hovers his/her mouse over the image
