Image titles and alt tags for multiple images

[TBSEO]

I'm hoping some of you may be able to help me understand the best way to optimize my image titles and alt tags for a specific situation.

I'm working on an interior design website and they have hundreds of pictures. each of their projects has about 10 pictures.

Is it best for me to us the key phrase in each title and tag? or is that to repetitive?

here is what I mean:

A project called "urban interior design"

all images are of urban interior design, just different angles and features, so my initial idea is to just have each image title like this:

Title: "urban interior design dinning area" Alt: "urban interior design dinning area view" Title: "urban interior design living room" Alt:"urban interior design living room couch view"

Is this the best way or will it actually hurt my ranking with too much exact keyword use?

Thanks for your help!

Thank you so much for your help!

It is just nice to know that I am heading in the right direction and thank you also for the other suggestions to consider as well.

All very helpful!

Now I just have to go through hundreds of pictures and ad those titles and tags over and over and over...

Thanks again!

You want to look at this from what you think your user will be search for. There is a lot of traffic you can obtain through image searches. So if your title and alt tab reflect the search queries, then your images will show high on an image search.

Also, consider pinning your images in Pinterest. I have gotten a lot of traffic through Pinterest for our images, as well as some SEO link value from Google.

Hi,

I believe your suggestion or what you have in mind is good.  Your Alt Text includes keyword and describes the image.  It is ok to have similarity in title and alt text as long as it is not exact similar.  Just make sure all your alt text and titles are different and be as descriptive as possible.
