Mie has turned to customer service as we do not see the possibility of adding ALT texts on images under items, for example.
She gushed about what rubric is being used for Google. Is it the title or the caption?
However, Jacob S tells that neither of those 2 are used pt. So I'm thinking that it something we've developed possibility? Since it is quite relevant ift. SEO.

I totally agree with you, Mie.
Incidentally, it says that this desire is “planned” - what are the prospects of it being “complete”?

Could ALT tag be “short description” or name per default and then can ALT tag if you want a different text?

In SEO work, this feature is really important and here is a brief text about why:
By using ALT tags (text) on your images, you help Google understand what's on your images. Search engines do not yet fully read what is in pictures, so it is important that they can read their way forward to it.
It also helps your website's strength in terms of searches and hence SEO. By naming your images and using the right keywords in your ALT tags, you help your website to appear on Google, for example — it is not as important as, for example, search engine optimization of your texts, but it helps in the overall score of the page.
Hope many more people will vote! :D
