Hi Jim,
I'd suggest writing about each model. Not everyone can easily look at a floor plan and see what's neat about it. Is the house great for multiple generations because it has a mother-in-law apartment? Good for aging in place because there's a downstairs suite and accessibility features incorporate throughout? If this is for a builder, does the builder offer options such as turning that fourth bedroom into a library or home office? If there's a home office with a separate entrance for clients, point that out. Talk about how wonderful the kitchen is, etc.

Dear Jim,
The ALT and TITLE on images are essential, but your page also needs text, text is the most important SEO tool at this time, so you should be describe in deep these homes, also you can add text such as "this home is ideal for ... ", etc. but think in "Good Text is the king for SEO"
Hope it helps

Thanks Claudio, that is what I already did but wondering if this enough or need more!

Thanks Keri,
the site mainly show real estate homes pictures [model name and image] so for example in the homepage I have slider with 5 images
The goal is to show homes [model, space, area, Amenities]
The images represent home floor, inside, etc.. but with no description text attached
Currently I added image alt/ title for each image and link as Claudio mentioned below but I'm wondering if this fair enough or need more .

Hello Jim,
You can do these simple steps:
1. Fill the ALT elements of your images be descriptive NO SPAM, usually short sentences with important keywords.
2. You can describe the images (200 words), also you can invite others to review these images, etc.
Hope it helps.

Are you prohibited from writing more text? What does the site sell / what is the goal of the site? Can you write more about the images?

Rankings going up, traffic decreasing
Hi there, I have been burned 3 times with shonky/bad SEO experts so was nervous about paying another company, so I am trying to learn SEO myself. My rankings are going up, but my traffic is at an all time low. This doesn't really make sense to me. Can anyone help me? Thanks, Astrid

What is the best way to do a one time rankings check of 10000+ keywords
Title pretty much sums it up. At the pricing moz offers this is not practical. Even at their highest tier i would only get 3700 keywords, so it would take several months to get the results.

Best techniques For EMD Ranking in 2013
OK. I know some will say "same as any other SEO". But I am keen to get one of my sites ranking for it's EMD. Nothing I do seems to be working at all. As far as I can tell it's not even in the top 100. Because the site is managed for a business, it needs income. I've managed to increase it's ranks in some low terms.

Keyword Strategy for an E-Commerce Site
I've seen this touched on in other posts but have read conflicting answers and am hoping to get some clarification. What should my keyword strategy be for an e-commerce site in an industry that has moderate to high competition for it's short-tail keyword phrases? Should I try to optimize my homepage for the highly competitive, short-tail keywords, while going after the long-tail, and less competitive (but less traffic, too) on my product pages? What's a good rule of thumb as far as the number of keyword phrases to target per product? Thank you

Should we change our site domain name to include our keyword?
Our niche has one keyword phrase that is much, much more active than any other comparable phrase. Let's call that phrase "math problems". Within this phrase, the "math" is absolutely the most important keyword, as it is also used in every spin-off search phrase, like "math answers", "math practice", etc. We've had our domain since 1996, and is currently the company name - "Rocketproblems.com". Over the last year (2010-2011) our SERPs have steadily dropped to the point where we're not getting a sustainable level of business from organic search, whereas in 2009 we were doing fantastic. However, we've also had "Rocketmathproblems.com" since about 2000, just gathering dust. What I've noticed from the top search results is that nearly every domain has either "math" or "math problems" in its URL. Do you think it's worth it to switch to the keyword-rich URL? It is a bit more verbose, and the "Rocketmathproblems.com" v.s. "Rocketproblems.com" example perfectly captures the different feeling. My inclination is that SEO is only becoming more competitive, and if we aren't getting worthwhile business from organic search at the moment then we should bite the bullet and make the switch for the future, along with ramping up our content generation. However, I also noticed that in late 2009 a previous webmaster switched to "Rogermath.com" but switched back within a month when our SERP for the key phrase was a page lower - I gleaned this from a Moz Juicy Keywords Report :). Thoughts?

Choosing keywords for similar products on an ecommerce site
In the case of an e-commerce website, can you optimize multiple pages using the same keyword ‘root’ but including different long-tail variances of that ‘root’? For example, say I’m optimizing for a site that sells wallpaper. I found search traffic for the keyword “buy wallpaper online,” but no traffic for “Blue Tinted Wallpaper” (or its variants) and no taffic for “Yellow Plaid Wallpaper” (or its variants). Could I effectively optimize both of these pages using the root “Buy wallpaper online”, yet distinguish the pages by using long-tail variants such as “Buy Blue Tinted Wallpaper Online” and “Buy Yellow plaid Wallpaper Online”? Any examples of this you can point to?
