How to optimize your images for Google image search

If you want to learn more about on-page SEO, we already wrote a comprehensive research.

Before the factor listing,  the image value comes from its relevance – Google will never display content that is irrelevant to user on top positions. The images should be relevant for the searches, so if you try to get quality traffic, your image has to send a proper message.

For eCommerce stores, it’s easier, the image should illustrate what it is, but if businesses like law offices or car services want to get traffic from Google Images, their image should express “1000 words”; the image itself is the title, the message sent by a business to its potential customers, it must say “hello, welcome in”.

There’s no more theory for this message.

1. Unique Images

Google has strict policy regarding uniqueness of content. You have to use unique images if you want to rank on google images and also to own the copyright of that image.

Stock images can get you rankings, but they might not send the message you want. So it’s best to create your own content and share it on web.

2. Image Names

Use Descriptive Image names. The filename is the first chance to include keywords in your images. Title the image name with a keyword or short text including the keyword which describes what is in the image about. For example, instead of using a camera image name such as DSC32303.jpg, use a filename like google-images-rank-tracking.jpg. This should be the most search engine friendly way of labeling images.

3. Image Alt Attributes

The alt tag is basically the description of your picture. It will allow you to add more keywords in your image description. Additionally, the alt tag is going to be shown by Google Image Search in place of the image name. Therefore, make sure to set the alt tag in combination with your image name.

4. Use images in your XML sitemaps for better indexation of your images.

The best way to help search engines indexing and finding your images is listing them in your sitemap, more exactly in an image sitemap. This will increase the exposure of your images so they could be found in an image search.

If you build an image sitemap, search engines will be able to crawl and organize your images.  Start doing it following these guidelines about image sitemaps.

5. Optimize website images for speed

Fast site speed is one of the conditions you have to fulfill if you wish to rank an image. All images should be in .jpg, .png or .svg format and their size is an important factor that affects directly the website loading time. Reduce the file size, but watch out as it will affect the image quality.

Once the optimization is done you will need a system to start tracking the results.
