Just don't use the same keyword for all images...vary a little with different phrases.

If you like to make SEO for a picture you must make a keyword research like for a website. If you use a picture which is named "thisismypicture.jpg" make sure the size of the picture is unique. If there are some picture in 300 x 400px make yours in other sizes. Use your Alt Tag and make a links directly to the article where your picture is and post your pictures on image sites.
There are many options to do SEO for images ...
Same way as an article really, a good title with the correct research with it
If You want to be visible in google image search good trick is upload picture to picassa and linking from that to Your site,
ofcourse You can also make links witch anchors directly to image :)

So if i am optimizing for Red Ceunchy Crisps and have it in my title It is beneficial to have the images, alt, title and filename based around my title and this is also good for my on page seo ?
its been said but make sure alt=(keyword)---- also , if you are using wordpress, consider "Easy WP SEO" this checks many things as well as this....
Through image, we can optimize using 3 or 4 terms only. Like, image size, unique images, image URL and image name.. publish images in social media and image sharing sites(pinterest, photobucket and so on). thats enough..
I also noticed that if you have an image hosted on site1.com/img1.jpg and use it in site2.com with img src="site1.com/img1.jpg" also helps! Titles, alt and proper file name helps too! Also the authority of your domain is really important.
For properly optimizing an image for SE's, one should make sure that he doesn't miss alt and title tags.
For which information you are thanking?Quote:

Using image wants do SEO then create alt text for image which is related to business content and business keywords. It effect your keyword ranking which crawl by Google then your site rank well.
