It becomes very difficult task when it comes to optimizing blog images for SEO. Blogger by default provides adding Alt and Title tags to images manually for better SEO but it really became a headache to add these tags manually to each and every image. So today I am introducing a great script which automatically adds Alt and Title tags to all your blog images in one go. You just need to rename your blog image before uploading as this script fetches the name of images and add it as Alt and Title tags. So let's start adding this great script to your blogger blog.

How this script works? :

This script simply takes the image name and use it as the title and alt tag for that particular image.

So to use this script carefully, you have to name your post images correctly. An example of an image with alt and title tag is below:
