| HTML element | Description |
|-|-|
| Title attribute | Zing indexes the contents of the title attribute of any HTML element. This is separate from the title element, which Zing already indexes when identifying the words of the document. |
| Anchor link target | Zing indexes the target URL specified in the href attribute of any anchor element. |
| Alt text for an image | Zing indexes the alternative text of any image element. |
