David Naylor had a piece recently on optimizing your photos for search engines. The piece got me thinking, so I Googled myself at Google images. I had to laugh...
Twenty pictures. Eleven are headshots of me from blogs and webpages. Four are pictures of friends on taken from my different social network profiles. And five are randon graphics off pages where I created content - including one of a serial killer named Charles Sobhraj.
We all know that pictures have been an important part of the Internet for a decade or more. But the art of searching pictures is becoming more and more sophisticated. Pictures have slowly moved from being entertaining to being information.
David's short piece looks at image optimization in Google. It's an interesting piece that may get your images a better ranking in Google. It's got me thinking a little more seriously about it, at least.

That's a very interesting article, Greg. I think it is going to become increasingly useful to SEO pictures. Especially as you say, the art of searching pictures is going to become more sophisticated and it will be increasingly difficult for un-SEO'd pictures to be found, as people become more familiar with this technique.

This will definitely be helpful to anyone who runs a commercial site or who wants to get locally famous ... and that's everybody these days, lol.

one needs to be careful while naming the picture and the heading of the picture.
