Good, practical next steps that build on what , and others started: alt text is the single most important on‑page signal for images (it’s for accessibility first, search interpretation second). Write short, context-aware alt text (think one clear phrase or a sentence that explains the image in the context of the page), avoid “image of…” and never stuff keywords. Put visible captions where they add meaning — captions help users and give search engines nearby context. (developers.google.com)

Technical checklist to actually “submit” and optimize an image for search: give files descriptive, hyphenated names; compress and serve scaled images; use responsive markup (srcset / picture) with a fallback src; add width and height (or use CSS aspect-ratio) so the browser reserves space and avoids layout shift; lazy-load only images that are offscreen (do not lazy-load your hero / LCP image). Where possible serve modern formats (WebP or AVIF) to reduce bytes. These steps improve indexability and page experience at the same time. (developers.google.com)

For discovery and legal/credit metadata: submit an image sitemap (or include image tags in your existing sitemap) so Google can find images that are dynamically loaded or on CDNs, and add ImageObject structured data or IPTC metadata if you want licenses/credit to show in Google Images. Don’t block image URLs with robots.txt; keep image URLs consistent across desktop and mobile. (developers.google.com)

Quick upload workflow (apply to each image): rename → resize & compress → add alt text + visible caption if useful → include responsive markup + width/height → add structured data or IPTC when relevant → ensure image is in your sitemap → test with PageSpeed Insights and check Search Console image reports. Example of a minimal, modern img tag:

<img src="black-kettle-600w.jpg"
     srcset="black-kettle-300w.jpg 300w, black-kettle-600w.jpg 600w"
     sizes="(max-width:600px) 100vw, 600px"
     width="600" height="400"
     alt="Black stovetop kettle boiling on gas burner"
     loading="lazy">

Monitor real-user metrics and Search Console for indexing and traffic changes. (developers.google.com)

What matters the most I think is the alt tags of the image. It's how the computer identifies the image and how google views it.

  1. You need to have proper keywords of websites so that people search you by that keywords , these keywords will be included when a site ask you to enter a title.
  2. use hashtags for image search and captions this is mostly used.
  3. Image

Steps

Keywords are the main thing. You dont need to find them, most often they find you. In TV niche yuor main keyword with be LED TV, TV, television etc. Pretty simple, right?

All of these need to be used not only in texts but in alt as well. As far as i know this is one of the most valuable thing when it comes to images in SEO.

Just dont forget all text MUST be readable whether its title image, alt description or similar.

My general advice is you have much spare time dealing with all those IMG alts and titles would be to describe every picture and put some LSI or longtail keyword (or a main keyword) where it belongs but not overoptimizes the page

All you can do on submitting image on SEO. The image must be related to your website in different image submission or sharing sites. Image submission involves choosing the right image, file format, alternate text, and image description.

You can use the keyword planner tool to see which keywords are getting searched the most, you can then change the alt tags respectively.

You need to create the innovative image which should be related to your website an then post it to the different image submission sites. There are lots of image submission sites, you can search it through Google.
