Image ALT Text missing was created by Dave B
Hello, as an SEO specialist I am not seeing the alt text for product images as an option for me to add.

Can you add this to the system asap?

Thank you

Hello, this is very important to Google for SEO. I want your component to be the best at SEO and product image optimization is key. Google Webmaster Guidelines say to use alt tags on all images and make them descriptive as possible.

Can you look into this?

Thank you

This is very important! I would also like to have that possibility! I see it as something very important to a store. Any detail for an eccomerce is already very important. I'm waiting for this possibility.

Hello, I had forgotten about this.

When is this going to be added? So if a disabled person is viewing the website their reader is not going to work. Google does not like this. Your extensions should be fully SEO friendly, no?

Thanks

This is the primary way Google knows what an image is. Certain types of products are very heavy in image searches. Product photos are a highly important part of selling. So Google finding images to display in SERPs is and should of been a part of EShop from day one. Not to mention blind people also shop for things online.

Can you please add this?
