Alt Text Tools

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   Can’t figure out how to be able to have all the image tags export in the CSV file. I love that this is a clean simple solution, so I feel like I am missing something. Please advise how to be able to see all images. I also wish I could just export the whole media file using this tool. It would make it so much easier. Then I could SEE the holes before the image gets placed. Is that possible?

   Run away of those other “automatic alt text” generators because that is not the way you must see SEO. This plugin is the professional way. Plus, the support from dev is awesome/quick, so what more do you want !?

   I tried to install a lot of other plugins for filling missing alt text, but they are all costs a lot or have non-friendly functional. This plugin is very simple and very helpful and also free! 🙂

   This plugin was easy to add and easy to use. It gave me a spreadsheet of all my photos without alt tags and clickable links to edit the posts. That saved a ton of time! Highly recommend!
