What is Alt Text?

Alternative Text, commonly referred to as Alt Text, is a written description of an image or visual component included in HTML or PDF files. Its main purpose is to enhance accessibility for individuals with visual disabilities, enabling screen readers and other assistive devices to convey the content of the image to users. Alt Text plays a crucial role in adhering to accessibility guidelines, including WCAG 2.1, Section 508, and PDF/UA standards.

Why is Alt Text Important?

Alt Text serves not merely as a technical necessity; it is essential for enhancing the user experience for individuals with disabilities. Here are several reasons why Alt Text is vital:

  • Accessibility for Visually Impaired Users

    Alt Text enables users who depend on screen readers to comprehend the content of images, infographics, charts, and graphs. In the absence of Alt Text, these users would be deprived of important visual information.

  • Improves SEO

    When implemented correctly, Alt Text not only makes your content accessible but also boosts your website’s search engine optimization (SEO). Search engines, such as Google, index Alt Text, which aids in making your content visible in search results for pertinent queries.

  • Legal Compliance

    Numerous countries, including the U.S. with Section 508 and the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act), require that digital content be accessible. Utilizing Alt Text helps ensure compliance with these legal standards, thereby reducing the risk of lawsuits and penalties.

  • Enhanced User Experience

    Alt Text contributes to the overall usability of your website or document, allowing all users regardless of their abilities to fully interact with your content. It also serves as a fall back when images do not load due to slow internet connections.
