Blogging Tips: Optimizing Images



Images can often make a difference to a blogs overall look and certainly add reader value to an individual post -  if that is the image is suitable to the content and the image itself optimized. These blogging tips are directed more towards the look of a post than to any SEO affects.

Many bloggers fail to look at the most basic blogging tips when it comes to images. I often come across pages where an image has been placed and the effect actually destroys the flow of post itself. It can be very disconcerting to a reader to the point that the post’s message is lost.

Simple blogging tips like left or right aligning the image with text wrap. Placing white space around the image for clarity – there are so many blogs where the text is hard up against the image.  Borders can be a useful affect as well if you know how to use them. Blogging Tips has an excellent post on How To Add Borders and is well worth a read.

Apart from borders, you can very quickly and easily add white space and change the alignment of your images with a couple of short commands.

White Space:
To add white space around an image – add the following command inside the <img src=”???? hspace=”5″ vspace=”5″> line in your html editor. The number 5 represent the number of white space pixels.

Image Alignment:
Add the following command <img src=”???” align=”left> – you can use ‘left’ ‘right’ or ‘center’ in the command line. The left and right options also allow the text to wrap around the image.

These are very simple blogging tips, however the overall affect to your post can be quite startling.
