About this tool
A filename, alt text, dimensions, and image format help search engines and screen-reader users understand the visual on a page. This tool helps you prepare a sound publishing baseline without making automatic ranking claims.
How to use it
Use the visible content as your primary source. Add a keyword only when it accurately fits both the image and the page context.
Practical example
Input: Design team discussing a wireframe around a laptop; page context: web design services.
Result: Filename: design-team-discussing-wireframe.webp. Alt text: Design team discussing a website wireframe around a laptop.
Mistake to avoid
Alt text exists to communicate visual information, not to repeat keywords. If an image is purely decorative, use an empty alt attribute.
Name the subject, activity, and important visual context. Do not begin with a list of keywords.
Enter a keyword or page context only when it helps make the filename and alt text more specific.
Keep the filename concise, make the alt text natural, optimise the file size, and use empty alt text for decorative images.
Frequently asked
A clear filename gives extra context about the image. Use words that describe the visual and separate them with hyphens.
There is no required character count. Prioritise a concise description of the important information in the image for someone who cannot see it.
No. Include it only when it is genuinely relevant to what is visible. Repeating keywords that do not describe the image makes alt text less useful.
For an image that carries no information, use an empty alt attribute. This lets screen readers skip decoration and focus on meaningful content.
No. File details are read directly in your browser on your device and are not sent to or stored by this tool.
