Do This - Images & Alt Tags
An often overlooked technique for improving a page's position
is the use of ALT tags. These tags are to describe an image in
a text-to-speech browser and are mostly used by partially sighted
or blind people so please do not abuse these tags.
However, careful use of these tags can help the overall optimisation
of a page when the image links to another on topic page. If the
page is about red widgets use something like "Picture of
red widgets" as your alt text.
The advantage gained is only very small but in very competitive
areas can help your page a little, just use them with care, as
in all things in SEO do not neglect the visitor and their experience.
