    Tips for writing 'good' alt text
    Be specific, and succinct. Describe the content of the image without editorializing.
    Never start with “Image of …” or “Picture of …”
    Use keywords sparingly.
    Include text that's part of the image.
    Don't repeat yourself.
    Don't add alt text to 'decorative' images.

    There is not need to make alt tag perfect. But yes, you must mention the right thing about the image in Alt Tag, because it tells the crawlers about the image as they can't read it.

    If your image has no purpose, leave the alt tag blank. Keep your alternative text as concise as possible and put the most important information at the beginning. Use punctuation in the text alternative to make the information easier to understand.

    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).

    While ALT tags need to be descriptive, they also need to be brief. They should not be full sentences or paragraphs. With a limit of about 125 characters, an ALT tag should provide enough detail for users and search engines to relate the image to the context of the page.

    You have to add alt tags in all images for seo optimization, so that search engine can read them.

    Using appropriate keywords to define the images will help to optimize it better for ranking higher in search engines.
