Better add images through HTML and determine alt tags, or add through CSS with the text-indent: -9999px (or similar) property? Or is there no difference?
Does search engines take text-indent: -9999px property as a normal way of doing things? Cause with this property we actually create a text, but not showing it for the user.
I’d say it depends on what you’re trying to make it mean. Is it an image with text fallback, or is it text with an image enhancement?
If I have an image which is just a fancier version of the text (perhaps with special effects or flourishes), I use the text with
background-imageand negativetext-indent. If I have an image where the text does not convey the full meaning, I use<img alt>.
