FOR SEO PRACTICES – do we add the text in the alternative text?
The Alt text is the text that will be read out loud by screen readers, or if the image itself does not get shown. So for SEO i would always give a good filename and always give a good alternative name.

Thank you – but where is the option to input this as “alternative name”
Wouldn that not be the alternative text ? in the screenshot.
If you are rendering this on the frontend as the image you want the alternative text to be render in the alt attribute of the image
But the first screenshot you showed, it had alternative text so click on one image then you should be able to set it ?
I’ve dabbled in SEO, and yes, adding descriptive text to your media’s alternative text is a smart move. It helps search engines understand the content, which can boost your SEO. Plus, it’s more accessible for users with disabilities. You could also use digital agencies (like https://www.pixelocity.com/ ) to help you promote your site. I hope that helps!
I have the SEO plugin installed and can edit alt tags invdividually.
Is there a way to batch / bulk edif alt tags for multiple images on a site ?
I added alt text to all media manually and made sure filenames include target keywords. After that, I saw better indexing from bing traffic bot—wasn’t huge, but enough to show up in analytics. Also ran everything through an image compression tool to reduce load times. If you’re hosting via Strapi, check that it’s not setting restrictive headers that block bots from crawling your media files effectively.
