    I have the same question! Should I name my files something like ‘my company phone.jpg’ and ‘my company email.jpg’ or does it even matter?

    First rule of ~~fight~~ SEO club…

    Don’t talk about keyword density!

    Write naturally, don’t worry about keyword density, keyword density is only an issue if your content looks unnatural due to the keyword density being very high. If you overly use your target keywords creating a high keyword density. It will seem forced due to a high keyword density. So keep an eye on your keyword density, but not to the point you’re overly or under using keywords to keep in check with a high or low keyword density.

    Make sense?

    In short… I wouldn’t worry too much about the file names. If you’re concerned, then don’t use your target keywords. Use a similar keyword(s) that describe the image just as well.

    No, The filename of an image impacts how it is indexed by Google.

    This means that if you want to rank for a specific keyword, you should consider renaming your images with the keywords in them.

    You can do put image alt tag.
