Why Etsy photo alt text quietly drives Google Image traffic
Etsy lets you set alt text for every listing photo, but most sellers leave it blank. That's a missed SEO channel: Google Images sends real buyer traffic to Etsy listings, and the alt text is the single biggest ranking signal for which image shows up first.
Good alt text also makes your shop accessible to buyers who use screen readers — and Google rewards accessibility. Keep it descriptive (what's in the photo), include your primary keyword naturally, and skip "image of" / "photo of" filler. Aim for 80-125 characters; under 60 looks lazy, over 150 gets truncated.
Generate one alt text per photo (don't paste the same one on all 10 images) so each photo can rank for a different long-tail. Combine this with the keyword research tool to find the phrases worth weaving in.
