How Image SEO Works in SureRank
Automatic Alt Text
Never Ship an Image Without Alt Text Again
SureRank watches for images that ship without alt text and fills them in for you. The auto generated text is based on the image file name and the post title, so nothing goes live blank.

Covers post thumbnails and in content images
-
Disable per WordPress filter if you prefer manual control
AI Alt Text
Context Aware Descriptions, Generated by AI
On Pro, AI reads the image and the surrounding post and writes alt text that describes what is actually there. Use it on one image, on a batch, or have it run automatically when you upload.

-
Bulk Generate Alt Text across selected images
-
Auto generate alt text on every new upload
Attachment Page Redirect
Keep Thin Image Pages Out of Search
WordPress creates an attachment page for every image upload, and most of them are thin pages that hurt SEO. SureRank redirects them to the parent post or the homepage, so search engines stay focused on your real content.

No. SureRank only fills in alt text on images that are missing it. Anything you have already set stays exactly as you wrote it.
The image file name and the post title. It is the simplest fallback, designed to make sure no image ships completely blank.
The image itself plus context from the post. On multilingual sites, the post’s language is respected so descriptions match the locale.
Yes. Add the WordPress filter surerank_image_seo_enable_alt returning false in your child theme or a custom plugin. SureRank will then leave alt text alone.
WordPress creates a separate page for every image upload. Most are thin pages with little content. Redirecting them keeps search engines focused on your real content.
No. Image SEO is focused on alt text and attachment redirects. Compression, resizing, WebP conversion, and lazy loading are not part of this module.
