Guys,
Just one question, adding my keywords to the alt description of the images is correct or can be consider by the spiders as a spam?
It's a curiosity of mine.

Regards,
Ovi

If you use the same keywords in different images then it is spam. the alt image is meant to reflect the content of the picture. The trick is therefore to get images that match your content

'UK Web hosting Linux Server image ' for example would be ideal for an image of a rack on a hosting site. Make the images clickable as then the alt text counts as anchor text and will boost both the page it is on and the page it points to..
