Name image files correctly to help your SEO

Since the photos are the same size and oriented the same way, they all fit in one column, with the paragraphs in another. No tweaking or guesswork required!
Ok, now that your photos are resized and looking great, how can you optimize them for search engines?

Most people don’t think much about their file names. They might call a photo benin whatsapp data “Photo1.jpg” or “Screen Shot 2017-06-02 at 3.41.15 PM”. If this sounds familiar, take a moment to rename your images before uploading them to your site. Why? Because doing so will give your SEO a boost.

Think of it this way. When Google crawls your site, it can read your text, but it can’t see what’s in your images. The filename provides information about what’s in the image so Google can interpret it correctly (think eiffel-tower.jpg instead of DSC12345.jpg).

The file name also becomes part of the image URL, so naming your files in plain English will make your URL easier to navigate and explain. When you upload an image to your website, its file name is public. So don't name it anything embarrassing or confidential.

For consistency's sake, use lowercase letters and the numbers 0-9. Do not use periods or spaces. And it's best to use hyphens rather than underscores.
