One of the first things that you should consider when choosing your images for your blog posts is the size. We talked about that in the previous post. Now let us look at some more considerations that can assist in generating more traffic with the help of images.
More than the image itself, you should also consider its relationship to the text. Of course, merely scattering images in your site will not do. You have to choose images that are relevant to your content. In addition to this, take note of the location of your images. As much as possible, place them close to the text which is the most relevant. Though some bloggers make it a practice to place images at the beginning of their posts, it may be good to change this practice if the most relevant text, with regard to the image, is nearest the image itself.
Linking related images could be a good practice as well. One important thing when it comes to images is their relevance – as mentioned in the preceding paragraph. If you have related images, you may want to consider linking them together in order to increase their relevance. Just make sure that the text associated with the images are also related.
Really important images – such as logos – would recur in your web site or blog. Make sure you tag these and highlight them. They will definitely score high in terms of relevance.

Its also a good practice to use “ALT” image tags while using images in a website or blog. Images are more comprehensive than text and make the blog or site much more attractive.
