"A picture is worth a thousand words." We have all heard of this saying, but does it hold true with the internet$%: Well, I believe that there is an advantage in including a photograph with your web content, on your blogs, with most anything you have online. And why is that$%:
For a couple of reasons:
- Your readers will be drawn to a photograph related to your content and would be more inclined to read your verbiage then to bypass it. How many of us get excited when we find a page crammed with text but little else$%: I know that I don't.
- By including text with the "alt" description you are more likely to have the photograph indexed by the search engines. Without that description, the search engines do not know what to do with the picture. Why not make it work for you$%:
I get a lot of my free photos from Stock.Xchng but I also take my own pictures with a digital camera that I recently purchased at a big box retailer. Okay, so my Mazda and Lincoln vehicle pictures need some work -- I need to learn how to better control glare -- but these are photos I didn't have to pay for.
So, give the inclusion of photos a try to see what you come up with. At the very least you will probably like your site better if you carefully include related photographs on your site. If you like them, then your visitors will probably like them too.
