It all depends on the kind of contents (niche) you offer your readers. It may only be applicable to the entertainment or news niche. But I still don't see the importance. Image captions are not necessary most of the time unless there's an action in the picture.

What really matters is a good and captivating post title.

You're very correct but a caption does more than you think, you're judging from your own point of view not a general point of view that is applicable to the masses.

Are you making this mistake, too?
When people visit your blog, they often hit your single post page first.
And when they hit that page, you have seconds to grab their attention before you lose them.

How do you keep these people from leaving your website?
You can craft an awesome headline. You can also make your content more inviting by
minimizing your content width.
However, there’s one more thing you can do, and it’s extremely effective for drawing readers into your content. The funny thing is, most bloggers, including me, often don’t do it.

Enough Hype, What’s the Secret?
When you write your blog post, you use an image to grab reader attention, right?
Right!

Did you know that when people spot images, their eyes naturally drift down?
It’s true…
And since this eye-dropping behavior is coded into our genetics, you should never run an image without an interesting, persuasive caption.
I know this sounds crazy… it’s just a silly caption.
But, as Drew Eric Whitman points out in Ca$hvertising, “studies have shown that up to twice as many people read captions as body copy.”

Do you know what that means?
If you fail to place a caption under your image, people may not read anything else. Heck, they may not even read your first sentence!
How horrible is that? Do you want to lose your readers before they give your content a chance?
Heck no!
So, you better use captions, and they better be good.

What are your thoughts? Do you use image captions on your blog? Are you going to start using them?

okay

PHP is a server side programming language, it interacts basically with the server; receiving form details, processing and retrieving data's from the database, there are so many other function but JavaScript is mostly used for interactivity and mostly used as a client side language but with the existence of NODE.js JavaScript can function perfectly as a server side and at the same time a client side language.

OBALORLA:
To be very honest getting a better ranking via SEO is as easy as its hard.
going straight to the point, I'd first advise whoever is interested in serious blogging to use WordPress (i really do not have any explanation for that- I'm sorry).
next is to buy a domain, because if you are still using Bleep..com or xyz., it will still seem like you are joking. doing this will open u to opportunities and features inaccessible to people who haven't bought.
after doing the above, for WordPress, go to your backend and click on plugins on the menu list and select "add new". this will bring to you a page which will feature loads of free and paid plugins.
carefully look for Yoast SEO, then download it.
this plugin will serve as a guide to you whenever you are writing any post/topic. you will know whether what you are writing is optimized or not because it will tell you what you are doing wrong or right and point out what you can do to correct the mistake(s).

I can't really explain all but i assure you that if you go by the above, you'd be one step closer to achieving visibility on google's first page.

that is all i have been doing and its been fetching my 4months old blog www.nomadicnegro.com an impressive traffic rate.

nice one, join us at: www.nct.com.ng

Use a more stronger password. UpperCase, lowerCase and special characters. You should also consider blacklisting the ip address the attack is coming from.

Thanks @ you all.

Hi

@D34lw4p, Thanks for sharing.

This post has given me and idea. Maybe I should do a mammoth blog post like a glossary for terms used in SEO, and Internet marketing.

What do you think?

you can, if you've some better understanding on how seo works.

Answers to SEO FAQs You Were Too Embarrassed to Ask

1) What is SEO?
SEO stands for search engine optimization. It refers to techniques that help your website become more visible in organic search results for the people who are looking for your brand, product, or service via search engines like Google, Bing, and Yahoo.

2) What's the difference between organic vs. paid results?
Organic results are the results that appear in search engines, for free, based on an algorithm.
Paid -- or inorganic -- search results appear at the top or side of a page.
These are the links that advertisers pay to appear on different search engines.

3) What are meta descriptions and do they still matter?
A meta description is the text that appears below your page in a search engine result that explains what the page is all about. In this example, the meta description is "Learn the elements needed to write a comprehensive blog post in just 9 easy steps."

Meta descriptions still matter, just not in the same way they used to. They used to be a place to optimize for keywords so crawlers would know more about your page contents; now, it's more important you write something compelling that makes readers want to click so you can improve conversion rates from SERP results to your website.

4) Should I optimize my domain name to include keywords?
Your primary domain should not include a keyword just for the sake of keyword optimization -- that can actually hurt your SEO. If your company name happens to have a keyword, that's fine, but don't go buying inboundmarketingsoftwarebloggingsoci(dot)com.
Get what I mean?

5) How do I know when I’m using the right number of keywords on a page?
Unfortunately, I can't tell you an exact number that is the "right" number of keywords on a page, mostly because that's the wrong way to think about keyword optimization.
There's no keyword density you should be aiming for -- in fact, using a keyword too many times can result in penalization due to "keyword stuffing." Just keep the reader in mind, and only use keywords when you need to. You'll find enough natural opportunities to include keywords that you won't even have to worry about reaching an arbitrary number.

6) What’s the difference between internal and inbound links?
Internal links are links on a page on your site that go to another page on your site.
Inbound links are other websites that link to your content. Both are valuable for SEO.

7) How many internal links do I need on each page of content?
Just like you should avoid stuffing too many keywords into your content, you should avoid stuffing too many links into your content. Only include them when it improves the reader experience.

Where is the "|" on my keyboard?.
its usually above the "Enter Key" on your keyboard.

9) Do I need to know code to do SEO myself?
You do not need to know how to code for every element of search optimization.
There are some more advanced SEO tactics that you will need a basic understanding of code for, but it isn't necessary for every part.

10) What is robots.txt?
This is a page that gives search engines information about the pages a company wants indexed or crawled. You can find this page by doing to YOURDOMAIN/robots.txt.

The solution to tax lab is:

def calculate_tax(people):
while True:
try:
iterating_people = people.keys()
for key in iterating_people:
earning = people[key]
if earning <= 1000:
people[key] = 0
elif earning in range(1001,10001):
tax1 = 0 * 1000
tax2 = 0.1 * (earning - 1000)
total_tax = tax1 + tax2
people[key] = total_tax
elif earning in range(10001,20201):
tax1 = 0 * 1000
tax2 = 0.1 *9000
tax3 = 0.15 * (earning - 10000)
total_tax = tax1+tax2+tax3
people[key] = total_tax
elif earning in range(20201,30751):
tax1 = 0 * 1000
tax2 = 0.1 * 9000
tax3 = 0.15 * 10200
tax4 = 0.20 * (earning - 20200)
total_tax = tax1+tax2+tax3+tax4
people[key] = total_tax
elif earning in range(30751,50001):
tax1 = 0 * 1000
tax2 = 0.1 * 9000
tax3 = 0.15 * 10200
tax4 = 0.20 * 10550
tax5 = 0.25 * (earning - 30750)
total_tax = tax1+tax2+tax3+tax4+tax5
people[key] = total_tax
elif earning > 50000:
tax1 = 0 * 1000
tax2 = 0.1 * 9000
tax3 = 0.15 * 10200
tax4 = 0.20 * 10550
tax5 = 0.25 * 19250
tax6 = 0.3 * (earning - 50000)
total_tax = tax1+tax2+tax3+tax4+tax5+tax6
people[key] = total_tax
return people
break
except (AttributeError,TypeError):
raise ValueError('The provided input is not a dictionary')
