- The reason behind creating the website should be – being able to impart and welcome quality and relevant information.

Hence be aware of the fact that you might want to use ALT tags while using image texts. While displaying important names, content, links, it is recommended to use texts rather than images.
- Try to bring out accuracy and precision while enlisting the <title> and <alt> tag attributes.
- Try to avoid errors in HTML and also look out for broken links.
