SEO for Images was created by hopekiah
Greetings, I'm thinking of switching from PhocaGallery to Simple Image Gallery Pro. The one thing I need is a way to optimize the images, image titles and image descriptions for search engines. PhocaGallery has an option for "no popup" which loads the large image and description into the main content of an article. This is excellent for search engines. I have done site-specific searches for your image gallery demos, searching segments of the caption itself to see if search engines can read it. I don't see any results so far. Are any of the options in Simple Image Gallery Pro good for search engines? Is there a "no popup" option?

The captions are obvious in the thumbnails too. So, you will not have problem with search engines.

Thank you Katia!
I usually include a brief title caption for the thumbnails and a longer description with the large image. Is this possible with Simple Image Gallery, and if so, is it possible to make the description available to search engines?

Thanks again. I looked at the demo and did some testing. I did a site-specific Google search for text that is only in the detail description and the results came up empty. Anyway, I appreciate your feedback.
