What is Alt Text?

Let's dive into alt text!

Alt text, short for "alternative text," is a vital feature that ensures images are accessible to individuals with visual impairments or difficulty viewing content. When an image cannot be displayed, alt text provides a textual description, enabling these users to comprehend the image's context. Beyond accessibility, alt text also enhances search engine optimization (SEO) by providing valuable information about the image's content.

In Gipper, adding alt text to your designs is a breeze. Simply click "Publish," and at the bottom of the "Write Your Caption" text box, you'll find the option to "Add Alt Text." Insert a concise, descriptive text that accurately represents the image, and you're good to go!

We hope this knowledge base article helps you understand the importance of alt text and how easy it is to use on Gipper. Should you have any questions or require further assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out.
