WebAudit Metrics
Accessibility
- ALT description
- Describe the image. Be specific.
- Recommended length: 80 - 125 characters
- Avoid keyword stuffing. Good alt text helps your SEO
- "Photo of..." is unnecessary, do not use
- Pro tip: A period at the end of your alt text provides a brief, courteous pause for screen readers
- SR text - if using a CTA or link like "Learn More" or "Read More," give contextual information about that link using the "dcf-sr-only" class.
