 * Hi
    I am a complete WP novice. I have set up a site with a specific Themeforest
   photography theme and uploaded many photographs. I have submitted a sitemap to
   Google via the Yoast plugin. However it seems that Google does not see that there
   are any images on the site although it can see that there are many attachments.
   It will not index these attachments though. Is there anything I am doing wrong
   or anything I can do to help this along?
 * My site is antonyz.com
 * Any help would be greatly appreciated please?
 * Many thanks in advance for your time.
 * Best
 * Tony

 * are you giving your images alt text and titles? they help with SEO, tags too.
   also, be patient, google has trillions of pages indexed, you’re just in the queue!

 * Thanks for your message Jack
 * I have completed all the alt text , descriptions etc – but I’m confused as to
   why the sitemap summary does list the images although they are included as attachment
   pages in the sitemap itself?
