Definition

Words you add to images to help people who use screen readers.

Alt text helps people who can't see your images. LinkedIn adds its own alt text if you don't, but it's best to write your own.

Usage

Always add alt text to your images. This helps everyone see your content.

Tips

• Be clear: Say what the image is about.
• Keep it short: Make it easy to read.
• Use good words: Add words that people search for.
• Don't say 'image of...': Screen readers already say it's an image.
