    @RH-CalvinAug 09.2017 — Search engines cannot read images directly on a webpage. Alt text is used with to define images in the source to help search engine spiders crawl and know about your webpage images. These tags are helpful to rank your images higher in search results.

    @Eric_DebbyAug 14.2017 — Actually 'alt' is not a tag, it is an attribute.

    The alt attribute is a additional bit of information you can add to links (<a>) and images (<img>) to provide additional information about the tag. Generally 'alt' attributes are used by certain pieces of handicapped software or by SEO crawlers to help identify what exactly the tag is doing. For instance if you have the follow

    <img src="/images/my_logo.jpg" alt="Image of my logo" />

    A screen reader for the blind would be able to see read this image out as simply "An Image of my logo" and proceed on, otherwise the screen reader may have skipped the image completely or incorrectly identified the image as something unrelated.

    @rootAug 14.2017 — people also call them properties and I have heard them called elements, what ever floats your boat I guess ?

    @jedaisoulAug 14.2017 — What I find strange is that the author of this thread knows about the ALT attribute, but apparently does not know how to use it? How can that be?

    @rootAug 15.2017 — D'ya know what I also find strange? The fact that people use google to find this site and ... *nuff said*
