## Description

**Built specifically for online stores.** Product Image SEO scans your
 entire product
catalog, generates accurate AI-powered alt text for every product image using your
product titles, categories, attributes, and SKUs as context, and helps your products
rank in Google Image Search.

Unlike generic alt text plugins, Product Image SEO understands product
 data. It
treats variation images, gallery images, and featured images differently. It uses
your product attributes as context. It gives you a product-by-product catalog dashboard
with SKUs, prices, and quality scores. And it exports a full image SEO audit report
for your entire store.

#### Why product image SEO matters

Google Image Search is a major source of buyer-intent traffic for online
 stores.
But Google cannot “see” your images — it reads alt text to understand what each 
image shows. Poorly written or missing alt text means your products are invisible
to image search, invisible to Google Shopping, and increasingly invisible to AI 
shopping assistants like ChatGPT and Perplexity.

Product Image SEO fixes this at scale.

#### Key features

 * **Product catalog dashboard** — see alt text status across your entire store 
   at a glance
 * **Context-aware AI generation** — uses product title, category, attributes, SKU,
   and tags
 * **Bulk processing** — fix thousands of product images in one run with progress
   tracking
 * **Auto-generate on save** — new products get alt text automatically
 * **Variation image support** — handles product variation images correctly
 * **Gallery image support** — processes featured image plus all gallery images
 * **Image SEO audit reports** — full CSV export of catalog image status
 * **Quality scoring** — see which products are ready for image search and which
   need attention
 * **Filter by category, stock, date** — prioritize which products to fix first
 * **SEO-focused output** — alt text written for search engines AND accessibility

#### Who this is for

 * Online store owners with 100+ product images
 * E-commerce managers running product catalogs
 * Agencies managing client e-commerce sites
 * Anyone who wants products to rank in Google Image Search

#### How it works

 1. Install the plugin and activate it (WooCommerce must be active)
 2. Enter your Alt Audit API key (free account includes 25 credits/month)
 3. Open the Product Image SEO dashboard under your store menu
 4. Click “Scan Products” to see current alt text status across your catalog
 5. Bulk-generate alt text for products that need it
 6. Review and approve AI suggestions
 7. Export an image SEO audit report for your records

#### Documentation

The plugin homepage is [altaudit.com/product-image-seo](https://altaudit.com/product-image-seo/).

Full documentation — installation, API key setup, bulk fixing, quality scoring, 
a complete settings reference, and troubleshooting — is at [altaudit.com/product-image-seo/docs](https://altaudit.com/product-image-seo/docs/).

#### Requires Alt Audit API

This plugin connects to the Alt Audit service at altaudit.com. The plugin
 itself
is free and open source. Alt text generation uses credits from your Alt Audit account:

 * **Free plan:** 25 credits/month forever (no credit card)
 * **Pro plan:** 1,000 credits/month
 * **Agency plan:** 5,000 credits/month

One credit processes one product image. Sign up at [altaudit.com](https://altaudit.com).

#### Related plugin

If you run a content site or blog (not an online store), see our general
 purpose
[Alt Audit plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/alt-audit/) instead. Both plugins
share the same Alt Audit account.

### External services

This plugin connects to the Alt Audit API (https://altaudit.com/api/v1) to
 generate
AI alt text for product images. This service is required for the plugin’s core functionality.

**What is sent and when:**
 – When a user clicks “Generate Alt Text” on a product,
the plugin sends the product image URL, product title, category path, attributes,
SKU, and short description to the Alt Audit API. – When a user runs a bulk generation
job from the Bulk Fix or Catalog screens, the plugin sends the same product data
for each selected product to the Alt Audit API. – When the “Auto-generate on save”
setting is enabled in the plugin settings, the plugin also sends product data to
the Alt Audit API automatically each time a product is saved or updated in WooCommerce(
whether via the admin UI, REST API, CSV import, or programmatic save). This setting
is disabled by default — no data is sent automatically unless the user explicitly
enables it. – No data is sent on plugin activation, deactivation, or during normal
browsing. – The API key is sent with each request to authenticate the account.

**Data handling:**
 – Alt Audit does not store uploaded product images on its servers.–
Only the generated alt text and usage metadata are retained. – Privacy policy: https://
altaudit.com/privacy-policy – Terms of service: https://altaudit.com/terms-of-service

## FAQ

### Where can I find the documentation?

Full documentation — setup, bulk fix modes, how quality scoring works, a
 settings
reference, and troubleshooting — is at [altaudit.com/product-image-seo/docs](https://altaudit.com/product-image-seo/docs/).

### Does this work with product variations?

Yes. Product Image SEO processes featured images, gallery images, and
 variation
images. Each variation can get its own alt text based on its specific attributes
like color, size, and style.

### How is this different from the Alt Audit plugin?

Both plugins are by the same author and share the same Alt Audit account
 for AI
credits, but they solve different problems:

**Alt Audit** is a media library auditor. It scans every image in your
 WordPress
media library, scores each one against WCAG 2.1 quality criteria, and helps you 
fix attachments one at a time or in bulk. It works on any WordPress site (blogs,
content sites, brochure sites).

**Product Image SEO** is a product catalog auditor. It scans your products
 and 
tracks image SEO coverage at the product level — featured image, gallery images,
variation images, all together. It uses product-specific data (SKU, attributes, 
categories, variations, price) when generating alt text, which Alt Audit does not.
It exports CSV audit reports organized by product and category, not by individual
image.

If you run a blog, use Alt Audit. If you run an online store, use Product
 Image
SEO. If you run a store with a blog, use both — they don’t conflict.

### Does this work with my page builder?

Yes. Product Image SEO works with Elementor, Divi, Gutenberg, WPBakery,
 Beaver 
Builder, and any other page builder. It writes to the standard WordPress image alt
attribute, which every builder reads.

### Do you store my product images?

No. The Alt Audit service accesses image URLs temporarily to generate alt
 text,
then discards the image data. Only the generated text and usage metadata are stored.
See the privacy policy at altaudit.com/privacy-policy for details.

### What AI does this use?

The Alt Audit service uses Google Gemini multimodal AI to analyze product
 images
and generate contextual alt text. Gemini understands image content and combines 
it with product data the plugin sends (title, category, attributes).

### Can I edit AI suggestions before saving?

Yes. Every generated alt text goes into a review queue where you can accept,
 edit,
or rewrite before it is saved to your product.

### Is this compatible with Yoast SEO / Rank Math / AIOSEO?

Yes. Product Image SEO writes only to the standard WP image alt attribute.
 It does
not conflict with any SEO plugin. It also reads focus keywords from all three for
better AI context.

### Will this slow down my store?

No. All AI generation happens on Alt Audit servers, not yours. The plugin
 writes
finished alt text to your database and nothing else. Background processing uses 
Action Scheduler (the same system WooCommerce uses) so nothing blocks your admin
or front-end.

### What happens if I run out of credits?

The plugin continues to work for manual edits, audit reports, and CSV
 exports. 
New AI generation pauses until you upgrade or wait for your monthly credit reset.

### Is this GPL licensed?

Yes, GPLv2 or later. The plugin code is free and open source.
