Image details

Add only the details that affect meaning: subject, page context, action, visible text, and optional keyword.

How alt text should be chosen

Alternative text communicates the role of an image in context. Decorative images use empty alt, functional images describe the action, informative images convey meaning, and complex images need short alt plus supporting text or data.

Usage notes

  • Choose the image purpose.
  • Combine subject, context, action, and visible text.
  • Decorative images use alt="", functional images describe the action, and complex images need short alt plus a longer explanation.

Frequently asked questions

Should every image be described in detail?expand_more

No. Describe only what is needed for the page context. Decorative images are better with alt="".

Can I include SEO keywords?expand_more

Only when they naturally fit the image and context. Keyword stuffing hurts accessibility and quality.

Is alt text enough for charts?expand_more

Usually no. Provide a short alt plus nearby text, a table, or another long description of the data.
