Im at a stand still while i see alt tags as a possible way to inflate your serps, shouldn't alt tags really be used to to describe somethig meaning full, like a image of storm clouds/heavey rain that would be something relavent to a blind user

Image tagging "cat with yarn" is irreverent to a blind user or is it? I can see google stand point from an image search point of view but would it not be better to name the image file "cat_with_yarn.jpg" rather then the alt="cat with yarn"?

Does anybody know if there's any way to put alt tags on images you upload to blogspot (google blogger)? Any help would be greatly appreciated ^_^

When you write your post and upload the pics in blogger, witch from compose to edit html, not ad the html alt tag to each pic

The clear explanation is excellent. I am glad you took the time in the video to address avoiding stuffing of words, but to also take the time to accurately describe the image to Google.
