Welcome to the Shopify community,
My website’s SEO is having an urgent problem, and I need your help. I’ve added alt text to my photographs, but despite my best attempts, search engines are unable to read it. The issue still exists despite my careful evaluation and appropriate improvements to my website. I need your help implementing alt text in a way that is similar to the successful websites, such the Custom Dress listed here. Moreover, how can I use JSON to change my hardcoded alt text? It would be very appreciated if you could offer any comments or counsel. I appreciate your time and assistance with this issue.
To help you with implementing alt text similar to successful websites, such as the Custom Dress website you mentioned, here are some guidelines:
-
Be descriptive: Write alt text that accurately describes the content of the image. Use relevant keywords but avoid keyword stuffing.
-
Keep it concise: Aim for a brief and succinct description that conveys the essential information.
-
Be specific: Provide specific details about the image, including relevant details, colors, patterns, and any important features.
-
Avoid redundancy: If the surrounding text already describes the image adequately, you can use alt text that provides additional context or emphasizes important details.
Regarding using JSON to change hardcoded alt text, you can dynamically update alt text using JavaScript or Liquid (Shopify’s templating language). Here’s an example of how you can achieve this using Javascript:
