 ...we're starting a PIN party! Come join us This Friday for;

It'll be a place to show off your latest & greatest pins. Link up your post today, stop back Friday and link up it's corresponding pin. 

Tip of the week - answers revealed

At Two Uses Tuesday 40, we asked if you knew the difference between:
  • image name,
  • image title, 
  • image caption, 
  • image description, and
  • alt text? 
Last week we defined image description.  
This week we cover the alternative text or Alt Text field.  
Alt Text is the most important field to fill out. If you're short on time and need to choose which which field to fill out and which to ignore this is the one to take the time to enter information into. 

Alt text is often described as being useful for SEO as crawlers use this information for key words and helps your image to be found in web searches.

However Alt text is also important for your blog visitors. It's the alternative text if the image is not available, such as ;

  • your viewer has images turned off 
  • if they are using text to speech for the visually impaired, and 
  • for e-readers that do not support images.

Fill out the Alt text field in such a way that it provides a clear description of the image and it's relevance to your post. 
Often it is this Alt text that will populate the text field when your image is pinned to Pinterest. A good way to decide what you should write in this field is to word it the same as you would describe your image Pin.

      They're great for getting your pins circulating. I think they are my favourite type of party.
