We will now discuss Question #34 of 200 blog review questions to help you improve your blog and review blogs. The Ultimate Blog Review Guide e-book covers all 200 questions in detail.

Blog Review Question #34: How many images and videos are missing alt text?

By the way, if anyone out there thinks I can't get this series and the resulting e-book done by the end of next month, just watch. We're kicking things into a higher gear.

33 questions down, 167 to go. 166 after this one. (Girds up loins.)

Image and video alt text may not be all that important if the blog normally doesn't publish many of them, or if the subject matter and target audience mean that the expectation for alt text isn't as high. Nevertheless, for SEO and accessibility reasons, I believe it's important to check that proper alt tags are in place. 

Yeah, I know – what's a good definition of alt tags? I'll stick that in later.
