      I'm looking to update the alt text on my company's website to increase traffic and qualified leads. I've done some research on my own, but the alt-text examples i find are really simple and pertain more to ecommerce  (i.e. leather boat shoe). We're  an archteicture and interior design firm so we sell our design services. One of our goals is to get more projects in florida.

      I understand the best way to do alt-text is to describe the photo in as much detail as possible. But would it also help to plug in our services? Here are some examples i've thought of (i've attached the photo i'm describing)

        Hi,

        Maybe consider this approach. The purpose of Alt text is to provide an alternative method to convey information rather than visual. In summary Alt text is for the visually impaired.  Someone using a screen reader.  The Alt text you have detailed above appears to fit that precise mold. So without seeing the images I would suggest you are on the right track.
