Checked the current state of the main page (https://grass.osgeo.org/) on https://seorch.net/ and added missing titles to the images it showed.

To not repeat the alt texts I also tried to improve them for SEO by reading the Google Developer page on image SEO best practices here: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/google-images

Google doesn't use the image titles for SEO purposes, the alt is more significant for it.

This solves issue #524.

Check the titles for consistency and meaning.

Kept the GIS keyword in the alts for SEO purposes and fixed the naming to be more consistent.

Thanks for the quick response. I think I saw what you meant, I kept the GIS keyword in GRASS logo alts and kept the same format for all of them.

I also adjusted the alt for the OSGeo project, since it wasn't the logo of OSGeo, and made the DOI badge alt a bit more descriptive.

See the proposed changes please, I am not sure if they get linked with the commit automatically.

I checked and I assume that it means I should remove the "GIS" keyword from GRASS logos alt texts, is that correct?

GRASS is no longer branded as a GIS software, therefore the removal of GIS from image alts

I guess so. The PR looks fine to me. Is there something else with the branding, @wenzeslaus ?
