    The ALT tag adds a text description to an image on a Web page, and should be used for all images, graphical bullets, and graphical horizontal rules. The alt text within the ALT tag should let the user know what an image’s content and purpose are.
    Alt text is accessed by screen reader users to provide them with a text equivalent of images. In visual browsers, the alt text is displayed when an image is broken, or when all images have been disabled. Using ALT tags is also beneficial to users on Palm Pilots or low-bandwidth connections, where images are slow to download.

    Alt text (alternative text), also known as "alt attributes", “alt descriptions,” and technically incorrectly as "alt tags,” are used within an HTML code to describe the appearance and function of an image on a page.

    Alt text uses:

    1. Adding alternative text to photos is first and foremost a principle of web accessibility. Visually impaired users using screen readers will be read an alt attribute to better understand an on-page image.

    2. Alt tags will be displayed in place of an image if an image file cannot be loaded.

    3. Alt tags provide better image context/descriptions to search engine crawlers, helping them to index an image properly.

    The required alt attribute specifies an alternate text for an image if the image cannot be displayed. The alt attribute provides alternative information for an image if a user for some reason cannot view it.

    The required alt attribute specifies an alternate text for an image, if the image cannot be displayed. The alt attribute provides alternative information for an image if a user for some reason cannot view it (because of slow connection, an error in the src attribute, or if the user uses a screen reader).

    Alt content is a fundamental of open website composition. Its unique (and still essential) reason for existing is to depict pictures to guests who can't see them. This incorporates screen perusers and programs that square pictures, yet it additionally incorporates clients who are locate impeded or generally unfit to outwardly distinguish a picture.

    An alt tag, also known as "alt attribute" and "alt description," is an HTML attribute applied to image tags to provide a text alternative for search engines. Applying images to alt tags such as product photos can positively impact an ecommerce store's search engine rankings.
