In the digital world, electronic footprints are everywhere. It’s clear we all want our products and names to be the first to appear in search results. But what may not be obvious is how to achieve that. A simple way to start is with your images.
Whether you’re uploading a video to YouTube, a screenshot file, a picture to a website’s media gallery, or a photo on social media, file size and name matter. It’s important to describe what’s in the image so both search engines and people can understand it.
Naming your images is a great first step, but for the best results, you’ll need to optimize the image for your site. Image size and file type play a significant role in your success. If the file is too large and takes minutes to fully load, most people will leave the page before it finishes. Some file types can also be tricky. Not all formats are compatible with every device and software, so it’s important to know how to convert files and determine which options work best for you.
