Easy SEO Tips for images
- 1. Don't forget your keywords: Name image files with applicable keywords just as you would for URLs. Include keywords in the image's caption. The file name and caption should not only describe the image, but it should also reflect what you want to be ranked for. Search engines will crawl these keyword-rich file names and captions to determine their relevancy. (Also, try to keep your images in one directory folder on your website and use common types of files; save photos as JPEGs and illustrations or graphics as GIFs.)
- 2. Take alt text seriously: Alt text (alternative text) is a description of your image that's inserted into the alt attribute field in the HTML code. The description replaces the image if it doesn't appear. Alt text increases image search results. Even descriptions as short as one sentence or phrase need to be unique and include keywords.
- 3. Link with anchor text: Using the proper anchor text has a major impact on rankings. Make sure that the linked anchor text uses descriptive keywords that describe the image and copy. Search engines will give your image a better ranking if it's linked with accurate anchor text.

A lonely city
Dear Parmis
I love Tehran on the Nowruz holiday. At this time, Tehran is usually empty and a private place. Its sky is brighter and clearer, because many people are not in Tehran. They traveled to seaside or other cities such as Isfahan, Mashhad and Shiraz. It's a good time for visiting Tehran.
But I was surprised today. We went to a jungle in Tehran, but it was crowded. I guess some people couldn't travel this New Year (You probably know its reason). Of course we always are in Tehran for Nowruz. We took some pictures there and we had a good time there.
Here are some beautiful pictures of Iran. I hope you like them.
Each moment of your life is a picture which you had never seen before and which you will never seen again. So enjoy and live life and make each moment beautiful.

- 1st impressions count
The whole point of LinkedIn is to make connections and engage with those connections in a meaningful way. Unlike Face book & twitter where your profiles are based on the content you've been sharing, LinkedIn is very much more focused on who you are, what you do, what you can do for others and your experience and experience.- SEO friendly
You must remember though that Google is changing. It's algorithms all the time and moving much more towards social proof. So you need to add to your keyword rich profile; great engagement, lots of likes, endorsements, recommendations and connections. Keyword stuffing may work in the LinkedIn search (and it does), but it won't hold much weight on its own in Google rankings anymore.- Positioning
