Compress your image before Upload

Website speed is largely depends on image size. More compressed image means less image size and less image size means your site is faster and faster site means that your site will rank higher to the search engines. You know, site speed is one of the important factor in ranking. This is why image optimization is very important.

In WordPress there are a lot of plugins to reduce image size. They do it on behalf of you very prominently. But in case of blogger.com  you have to do it manually using different online and offline tools.

Get a better Idea and best practices about SEO for blogspot blog. Hope this will help you a lot.

Tiny PNG:

This is an online powerful image shrinking tool. This is my most favorite one due to easy to use and efficiency is very high, reduces image file size without loosing image quality.

This is very simple. Just upload and it will then start to compress automatically then download it. It will compress your image without reducing the image quality. Done.

JpegMini

JpegMini is another tool like TinyPng. Performance of this tools are similar almost, I can’t differentiate between them which one is better.

How to use JpegMini

Resize Image Before Upload:

We have told already image size is very important for site speed. To optimize your site speed you need resize your image properly. Yah your image quality will be good but this does not mean that you will use an image with an width 1920*1200. An image with an width 800px is more then enough I think to use in a blog post.

Rename Your Image Before Upload

Rename your image with plain English rather then keeping it in it’s default name. You may need to use an image from your camera or an bulk royalty free image sources. So basically the image name format is something like xyz123xndskdf45.jpg or something else which does not make any sense and it not even create any sense to the search engines. so rename your image with a flat name sounds good if it become little bit descriptive. i.e: techdim-logo.png.

Don’t forget to use an hyphens between the words of your image name. Let’s check an example –

renaming an image before uploading

Worse Format:  hrxys-34440484339543nkn.jpeg

Renamed format: horsessleighridewinter.jpg

Best Practice: horses-sleigh-ride-winter.jpg

How much SEO benefit you will get renaming an image? Very unpredictable question but the answer is may be not or a little bit. But this is the best practice, do it, hope it will help.

Add Alt and Title Tags

To optimize an image the properties and attributes are image tag alter tag and title tag. We can add an image caption in Blogger too.  Alt tag is nothing but an HTML, this is the alternative text of the images means it describes the contents of the image. Alt text provides important information’s to search engines. The same things about the image title and the image caption. Google has been published image publishing guideline too.
