What Are Alt Tags?

Alt Tags ("alt text", "alt description", or "alternative text") are snippets of HTML code that is used for the following:

  1. Visually impaired users relying on screen readers will read an alt tag to describe an image.
  2. The alt text displays in the event the image cannot load.
  3. Search engine crawlers also rely on alt text to improve the image's indexing.

Ensuring all images have some descriptive alt text is the best way to keep your website accessible.
