Make Images A Part Of SEO And Social Media Strategy

Strong images are an important part of any marketing strategy. The old adage, “show, don’t tell”, rings doubly true in the realm of marketing strategies that are tailored towards social media platforms.

Most people are visual, and images can project a feeling or message instantly. So use images to increase engagement:

  • Optimize your images for search
  • Images show up on the search engine
  • Use your post or page keywords in the title or the alt text area of your image for optimal search engine value
  • Optimize your image quality for web so the image is quick to download

Images can sell a story to a potential customer more succinctly than words, especially on social media platforms. Thanks to the folks at
