Hi, Mr. Mickey! There is no easy answer to your question, but here are some suggestions to get you started.

Be sure that when you post a link to a picture, you label it in your alt text. (My Golden Retriever catching a Frisbee by the ocean.) This is important to the search engine bots because it not only aids in a search, but it benefits people who have sight problems. And if for some reason graphics don't load, it tells them what they would see.
