Therefore, from a11y perspective should not have alternative text at all (blank alt=""). So it is a bit unclear. But I will try to check how much traffic do we get from other images to have some numbers behind it... Thanks for info | |

Very few people click through to your site from image search. In my experience image search traffic converts at a very small fraction of web search traffic. It probably isn't worth the time and effort to get indexed in image search. | |
