Question -- Serge, I love your newsletter! Thanks for making this available to the Internet community. My question is a very simple one: is it worth it to spend the time to write some keywords in the ALT attribute tags of images and photos? Our site has many of them and I'm always wondering if the whole thing isn't a complete waste of my time? What do you think? Thanks in advance for answering me Serge and may God bless you.

Answer -- Thank you for your kind words. Yes, the time necessary to write ALT meta tags is fully justified in my opinion. On top of helping your site's rankings in the search engines, your Web site will also gain a lot more in usability, since ALT metas are read out loud by specially-equipped computers for people with reading disabilities and/or for blind people.
