Image Gallery - Name of the image files
-
I would like to know If I have a image gallery in my website, what name must I put in the image files? Can I associate with the my key-word?
Ex: Post about pizza buffet, and than... the images can have the name "pizza-buffet-01, pizza-buffet-02"? Is it wrong?
Thank you

Hi,
Allow me to join your discussion. I just want to make sure I understand it as it is. It will be fine if I have the following images on a single page? For example:
Image:Alt
pizza-buffet-01.jpg:Pizza Buffet 1
pizza-buffet-02.jpg:Pizza Buffet 2
pizza-buffet-03.jpg:Pizza Buffet 3
pizza-buffet-04.jpg:Pizza Buffet 4
Thank you!

You are accurately describing the images - definitely not spam. The more descriptive you can be, the better (which would also differentiate the file names).
Having files named pizza-buffet-pizzeria-best-pizza-buffet-1.jpg would be spammy.
-
But it's okay that the keyword appears in several photos at same time? This may seem a spam keywords?
Because there are several situations the same service, with a lots of photos and all of them would be appearing on the same keyword...

Yep, what you have is good. The image names/alt should be keyword friendly and describe the image. It would be better if you described it even more i.e. pizza-buffet-marriot, pizza-buffet-hilton

Negative SEO with Google Images
We have a client in the heavy equipment industry that is trying to "push down" images in a Google image search that are associated with an accident over ten years ago. This client has launched a new website, and we have applied the best practices of on-page SEO (page titles, unique meta-descriptions, alt-image tags, focused keyword targeting, etc.). The challenge we have is with Google Image results. It seems the image results shown in the Google Image search rankings are often not inline with how images have been labeled in the alt-tag section. I have checked these images with the Moz Chrome extension, and I have often found the way the image is labeled in the alt-tag is not related to the search query made within the Google image search bar. I certainly may not be factoring in other weighted items when it comes to how images are ranked. Are there other ranking factors associated with Google Image results outside of the Alt-Image Tag? If so, what are those factors? Our ultimate goal is to provide a strategy that would allow us to tag images within this specific sector that are relevant to this specific heavy equipment product, and at the same time, "push down" the rankings of the images that have a negative association to them. We certainly want to take the right approach here, and want to earn these rankings. However, the way Google ranks images seems to be a mystery of sorts. Is there a specific strategy relevant to Google Image rankings that would fall inline with the challenge listed above? I appreciate any advice on this topic. Thank you.

Image results Bing vs Google
I have a website with a number of images and I have optimized all of the images on both a file name and ALT text level, relevant to content on the page they are published on. I haven't created a separate image sitemap, but the strange thing is that Google has all of my images indexed and they can be found for the right keywords, but when I look in BING! images, there is no image indexed available at all ...

Moving Images to Subdomain: SEO Impacts
For sever work- load enhancements we are planning to move our images to a sub-domain. so the files would be located at something like images.domain.com Rather than domain.com/images/ We are a large Ecommerce site so we have a lot of images. These will be self hosted so we are not using a CDN. I'm hoping someone has done the same and if there were any steps they had wished they had taken before making the move/ if they noticed any traffic impacts things like that.

Local Targeting without the city’s name
Here’s an interesting one for you guys: We show up on page 1 for “Edmonton web design,” (our website is http:web3.ca), however when you search for just “web design” in our city, we don’t seem to show up at all. I know Google is now placing a higher percentage or local companies in a search. So my question is: how can we show up better for a local search that is just “web design”? Does this just come down to domain authority & content or are there other key local factors at play?

Online Photo Gallery: drive traffic and increase social media activity
I run a photo booth rental business for weddings and other social events. One of the features that comes standard with every package is that all of the photos from the event are hosted on an online photo gallery. We currently give the guests a business card at the event with our website address and on the website they can click a link that takes them to their online gallery, which is hosted on www.smugmug.com. I wanted to see if there is a way that we could keep the traffic/visitors on our website longer vs. sending them to www.smugmug.com. I also would like to see if there is a way that they can incorporate social media sharing, such as Google+ to share our website with their friend and family. So my questions are: 1. How do I get visitors to spend more time on my website vs. leaving to go to the www.smugmug.com website? 2. How do I get visitors to share our website/gallery/photos via social media like Google+, Facebook, etc... and bring traffic to our website?
