    Generate alt text templates following SEO best practices.

    Copy alt attributes into your CMS, HTML, or social posts.

Writing good alt text

Describe what matters in the image context — not "image of" prefixes. Decorative images can use empty alt="".

Include keywords naturally when relevant — keyword stuffing in alt triggers penalties.
