Why image alt tag is important?

[Electrum]

Hello Friends,

Alt tags aren’t just for search engines but also for anyone who can’t see images on the web. For some, a low-bandwidth connection could be the reason the user can’t see an image. The images simply don’t load for the user to see them. The alt text can provide some of the information they’re missing because the image didn’t come up for the.

Even more importantly, alt text is picked up by screen readers, which are special browsers used by those with visual impairments. The screen reader tells them about the image by reading the alt tag to them. If you’re missing alt tags, visually impaired users won’t know what the purpose of the image is. In fact, they may not even know they’re missing image information at all if you leave out alt text!
