Pinterest alt text generator
Alt text describes your pin image for people who use screen readers, and it gives Pinterest more context about the picture. Describe what is in the image and get eight clear, factual alt texts.
How to use the pinterest alt text generator
- Describe the main thing in the photo.
- Add details someone would need to picture it.
- If the pin has words on it, type them; screen readers can't read text in images.
Writing alt text the right way
- Describe, don't sell. "Photo of a white kitchen with open wooden shelves" is good alt text. "Best kitchen ideas, click now!" is not.
- Include text from the image. If the pin has a headline on it, alt text is the only way a screen reader user hears it.
- Keep it short. One or two sentences is enough.
To add alt text on Pinterest, open the pin builder, then More options, then Alt text. Edit the generated sentence so every detail matches your actual image.
Questions
Does alt text help Pinterest SEO?
Pinterest uses it as extra context about the image, but its main purpose is accessibility. Write it for people first.
Should alt text start with "image of"?
It's optional. Screen readers already announce that it's an image, so many writers skip it.
