Hey Richard,

Google read the “alt” text behind the image, they also read the image file name, the alt text will show if the image doesn’t load. ;)

Hope that helps.

They actually have face recognition now and I believe I read somewhere that they were able to read text on them. Don't know for sure, but it seems to me like I saw this. Awesome post. You did a great job with the long keywords... I heard the phrase before, but never knew what it meant. Thanks for clearing that up.

In all honesty, I thought I got the concept of the long tail, but my stats tell me otherwise. Perhaps my niche has too many competitors...perhaps I'm not thinking like a searcher...whatever the case I can't get to the top of the SE for a particular long tail. Patience, i suppose, is my answer. This is a truly thought-provoking post, at least for me. In all honesty, I thought I got the concept of the long tail, but my stats tell me otherwise.

I am finding that the keyword academy approach is working just fine for me - but I'd like to compare the two at some point Guys if you want to trial it - head over to Eri'cs site and get him to give you an affiliate link :-) I really should get around to tialing micro niche finder – I’ve heard people I trust say good things about it.

Getting your keywords right is the most basic part of writing your web pages if you want to attract some search engine traffic. It's not nuclear physics, but IS time consuming to do properly. That's why it's so expensive to get others do do it for you properly. The google Exterbal tool certainly gives you a idea of the keywords that people are using to search, but it's onlyhalf the story. You also need to know how much competition there is for those terms. Using keyword research tools (Micro Niche finder is my favourite) will quickly give you effective keywords that can get your site towards the first page of Google. It costs about a hundred dollars, but worth every cent IMHO. (Sorry, no link. Lis would probably ban me :-) Just google it.) cheers, Eric G. Great Post Lis.

Thanks LIS,
