Image ALT tags for Air Duct Cleaning Service websites

If you've never heard of the 'ALT' tag then read on. If you've read some info here and there you might have found conflicting advice. We'll clear it all up here!

Now imagine you are trying to SEO a page for the keyword 'kitten food'

Here are some examples of what makes for Good or Bad Alt text:
