Image title, alt text, attributes. What!? 😱

Here is a quick lesson.

Think of image title and alt text as little notes that describe the image. Web browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox...) and search engines (Google, Bing...) use this information to understand what the image is about.

What you see below is the HTML of an image. This is how Google see your images. It starts with the <img tag and contains the link to the image file as src= or source. You will also notice the title tag that starts with title= and the alt text that starts with alt=.

<img src="https://your-website.com/wp-content/uploads/my-family-photo.jpg" title="Uncle Bob, Martha, Grandma and Grandpa" alt="Photo of my family with uncle Bob, aunt Martha, Grandma and Grandpa" >

WordPress media uploader lets you fill in these attributes each time you upload an image. Yes, it's tedious and there is a good chance you haven't done it so far. Don't worry, Image Attributes Pro can fix it for you!

"Lifesaver, Absolute must!!!"

Wow, this plugin is an absolute must, saved me so much time.

"Saved me TONS of time!"

Highly recommended plugin! Works as described, just setup and forget it.

"Works great with multisites too"

I tested it on our WordPress multisite setup and worked perfectly! 944 images done in about 1 minute... Thank you so much, your plugin worked like a charm and you saved us a lot of time and now we are Accessibility compliant on all images, even those posted several years ago.

"Should have been using this all along!"

I should have been using this plugin for years before I discovered it! Name your images something intelligent before uploading, and it will remove underscores and hyphens and then give the image a proper title and caption. Works exactly as it should. Great for image-heavy sites and for SEO.

"Great plugin and fantastic support"

Fantastic plug-in, well thought out, easy to use and massive time saver. The support from Arun is also second to none.

"Stoked. Awesome time saver"

If only I could get the time back that I used over the years populating the dumbest attribute there is online, the alt tag...Thanks for a great plugin. Stoked
