      Hello there

      We are working on a redesign for our site, and our business is very image intensive (sign company)

      On a typical product page, we have 5 images we are placing directly in the site optimized to try to rank the images in image search

      We also have about 30-50 sets of images, with 3-5 images each - hosted on flickr, that we are displaying as galleries on the page (user clicks, opens a light box to view the set, etc)

      Here is the page - http://impactsigns.ugmade.com/sample-page/

      If you look at the page code, you will see that the flickr gallery (additional examples) section - adds ALOT of code to  the page (lines 498 to 837)

      My question is :

      Does adding that flick gallery block negatively impact the page SEO, all else being equal?

      It seems like a lot of lines of code. And dont want it to seem spammy to the search engines.

      Thanks for your help and advice

        Oh, it's year of 2015 and you still use "timthumb.php"?

        Also if i think that lack of alt text for images can be terrible for your page. If you're still looking for modern gallery you can use PhotoSwipe script and he is SEO and semantic friendly.
