Re: Alt tags, comment tags and excite From Max on 20 June '98 adding to Alt tags, comment tags and excite posted by Meg >Does Excite index alt tags and comment tags? They used to index ALT tags, but now they only do the text that is visible to the user. Many sites were cramming the ALT tags with keywords to bias the results in their favour, so they stopped using them at all.
