  2. Naming photographs on your website

    Posted on

    Did you know...

    If you name each photograph on your website with a relevant name it will help your website be found by search engines (and so rank higher) with terminologies included?

    Rather than name a photograph on your site room one, ad v or HX22, try naming it as you would like to be found on the internet!

    For example for the client below, we named photographs:

    Green cart Biker Friendly Camping Hadrian's Wall Northumberland
    Greencarts Farm Biker Friendly B&B Humshaugh Northumberland Hadrian's Wall
    Greencarts Farm Biker Friendly Bunkhouse Hadrian

    Greencarts Farm
    A working farm situated in the beautiful Tyne Valley, surrounded by the magnificent, unspoilt beauty of Hadrian's Wall country and with a warm Northumbrian welcome from proprietors Sandra and family. As the farm sits almost on top of The World Heritage site that is the magnificent Hadrian's Wall with its many Forts, visitor's centers and historical points of interest, it is a great base to explore this spectacular area and countryside, including The National Park, Kielder Water, The Scottish Borders, Alnwick Castle & Gardens, Cragside House and just an hour away from the east and west coast, on the Coast to Coast route. The Market town of Hexham, is a short ride away and is steeped in history, with its wonderful 7th century abbey, antique shops and many quality pubs and restaurants. B&B en-suite, tastefully decorated country style accommodation with tea/coffee making facilities. A hearty Northumbrian breakfast is served. Bunk Barn and Camping is also available. Secure parking.
