81 links have no text describing their destination

Hi!

I have received this message:

81 links have no text describing their destination. Links on a page should describe their destination for the benefit of both screen readers and search engine spiders.

Add meaningful anchor text that describes the link's destination. If the link contains an image, ensure you have provided alt text.


Where to add it, what do i have to click and how to do this? Any idea?

Thank you!

If you double click any image on the page, the properties dialog window opens, it is here, under the general tab, you can add your descriptive text for the associated image, add it to the box field called "Alternative Text"

Should i add only into "Alternative text" or also in "Title" ?

Should i do it for all the pics/images or for the text links also?

Thank you for your help! Appreciate it!

Best regards

You can also set the tile for text links.

Is it wrong if i have on a 2 different but similar pictures/images the same "Alternative text" or "Title" or is this bad for Google?

Thanks a lot man! I have started to change it and i see that i have lowered the number from 81 to 76. It works! Thank you!

I'm sorry my knowledge about Google 'rules' is not sufficient to answer that.
