Missing Alt Text
What This Means
Images that have an alt attribute, but are missing alt text. Images should have descriptive alternative text about its purpose, which helps the blind and visually impaired, and the search engines understand it and its relevance to the web page.
What Triggers This Issue
This issue is triggered when images on a page have an alt attribute but are missing the alt text. For example:
<img src="image.jpg" alt="">How To Fix
Include descriptive alt text for images to help users and the search engines understand them better. Where possible, decorative images should be provided using CSS background images or alternatively a null (empty) alt text should be provided (alt=””) so that they can be ignored by assistive technologies, such as screen readers.
