Get Started NowFrequently Asked Questions
How do I add SVG to HTML?
There are three main ways: 1) Inline SVG - paste the SVG code directly into your HTML, 2) <img> tag - reference the SVG file like any image, or 3) CSS background - use as a background-image. Inline provides the most control and best performance.
What's the difference between inline SVG and <img> SVG?
Inline SVG embeds the code directly in HTML, allowing CSS styling, JavaScript manipulation, and eliminating HTTP requests. Using <img> tag is simpler but limits styling options and requires a separate file request.
Can I style SVG with CSS in HTML?
Yes! When using inline SVG, you can style elements with CSS classes and IDs, create hover effects, change colors, add transitions, and even animate paths. This is impossible with raster images.
Do SVG graphics work on mobile browsers?
Absolutely! SVG has excellent mobile support in all modern browsers. The small file sizes load quickly on cellular connections, and graphics automatically scale perfectly to any mobile screen size and density.
Will SVG improve my website's SEO?
Yes, in multiple ways: 1) Smaller files improve page speed (a ranking factor), 2) Text in SVG is searchable by search engines, 3) Faster loading improves user experience signals, and 4) Better Core Web Vitals scores help rankings.
Can I animate SVG in HTML?
Yes! SVG supports animations through CSS animations, CSS transitions, JavaScript, and native SVG animation elements. You can animate paths, colors, transforms, and more for engaging interactive graphics.
Are SVG files accessible for screen readers?
Yes! SVG supports ARIA labels, title elements, and description elements. When properly coded, SVG graphics can be fully accessible to users with disabilities, unlike raster images.
What's the best SVG method for HTML performance?
For icons and logos, inline SVG provides the best performance by eliminating HTTP requests. For large illustrations or multiple pages, external SVG files with proper caching work well. Avoid data URIs for large SVGs.

Why Use SVG in HTML?
Infinite Scalability
Unlike raster images (PNG, JPG), SVG graphics are vector-based, meaning they scale infinitely without quality loss. Whether viewed on a smartwatch or 8K monitor, SVG graphics in HTML always look crisp and perfect.
Performance Benefits
SVG files are typically much smaller than equivalent high-resolution raster images. This reduces bandwidth, speeds up page loads, and improves Core Web Vitals scores - all critical factors for modern web performance.
CSS & JavaScript Integration
SVG elements can be styled with CSS classes, animated with CSS transitions, and manipulated with JavaScript. Create interactive graphics, hover effects, and dynamic visualizations impossible with raster images.
SEO Advantages
Search engines can read and index text within SVG files. Combined with faster page loads and better user experience signals, SVG graphics contribute positively to your site's SEO performance.
Three Ways to Use SVG in HTML
1. Inline SVG (Recommended)
Paste SVG code directly into your HTML. Provides full CSS styling control, JavaScript access, and eliminates HTTP requests for better performance.
<svg width="100" height="100">...</svg>Best for: Icons, logos, interactive graphics
2. SVG as Image File
Reference SVG files using standard <img> tags. Simple to implement but limits styling and interactivity.
<img src="logo.svg" alt="Logo">Best for: Simple graphics, content images
3. SVG as CSS Background
Use SVG as background-image in CSS. Good for decorative elements and patterns.
background-image: url("pattern.svg");Best for: Backgrounds, patterns, decorative elements
