Alt text means that alternative information - alternative information for users is not displayed or hidden images selected in the browser or the user agents simply can not afford to display. Image alt tag description to provide information to users.

Google has officially announced that the search engine will focus on analyzing the text in alt tags to better understand the contents of the image file.

The alt tag is used by screen readers, the browsers used by blind and visually impaired people, to tell them what is on the image. Not just for SEO purposes but also because blind and visually impaired people otherwise won't know what the image is for. A title attribute is not required.

alt and title attributes in WordPress. When you upload an image in WordPress, you can set a title and an alt attribute. By default it uses the image filename in the title attribute, which, if you have no alt attribute, it copies to the alt attribute. This is better than writing nothing but it's actually rather poor.

Google can not read images so, we need to define alt tags for that images. These alt tags work as a keyword or anchor for search engine.

Alt text may be a word or phrase which will be inserted as associate attribute in associate HTML document to inform electronic computer viewers the character or contents of a picture. The altitude text seems in a very blank box that may commonly contain the image.
