In my opinion Google index the images by using their alt text.Make sure that all your images has alt text and that these texts are keywords and related to your site content.

If you sign up for a google webmaster account you can include your images in googles search, it is an option to turn on and off, at least that's what I got from it!

How do you set alt text. In other words what is the HTML for doing that as I do most of my coding by hand to learn how to do everything..

Thanks

Hi,
Below I give you one example go through it.Sure it will help you.
alt is an attribute of IMG tag,these are very important. We can include a text description of the Image, so that if the Image fails to load for some reason, the visitor can get an idea of what it is.including keywords in your ALT text, as some search engines use them to rank pages.

Example for set alt text

<img src="car.gif" alt="Toyoto Car" />

here Toyoto Car is the key word if someone search Toyoto or Toyoto car image means your car image shown in the Google images.

Regards.

All you have to do is put the image in an image tag and boom, you're there. Just wait for Google to crawl and pick it up the way they do the rest of your site.

wow this was really informative, i never thought Basic HTML was this important. Will go back and learn all attributes again. They are very important if you want a semantic web.
