When I wrote for a music blog, I went from receiving a few hundred visitors a day to a few thousands visitors a day overnight. Did I hit it big on Digg? Get major Stumblage? No. I brought in thousands of readers through Google Image Search.
I know many bloggers and web writers label their images haphazardly
or with little thought as to whether or not they’ll bring in search engine traffic.
A picture labeled “snow122208″ probably won’t bring in as many search
results as one labeled “snow conditions”, “snow boots”, “snow tires” or
“snow boarding.”
In addition to saving your images using keywords, use keywords in
your image descriptions and, if you can do it without looking spammy,
your image captions. Start doing this and within a week or two your traffic numbers will rise.
Labeling your images properly is one small thing you can do to bring in big results!
