Alt - for search engines

Hi,

Do the search engines use the alt=" " to index pages and help with ranking of the page?

Cheers

I dont know much about SEO, but I think its pretty obvious, it affects.

Search engine couldn't see images, so alt attribute could tell it what's it all about. ALT attribute gives a description about that image in addition to be placed instead of images(if not loaded).

Perhaps this thread's right place is in this forum in DaniWeb, totally dedicated to SEO.
