Page-specific AI briefings

SEO Image Alternative Text Generator

Images boost user engagement, but search engines can't interpret visuals—they rely on alt text.

The Image Description Generator helps you create effective descriptions for your media. This improves the searchability of extensive media libraries and by serving as a fallback alternative text for images it makes your site more accessible. To craft SEO-optimized alt texts, it's crucial to understand the page content and context. The same image can need different descriptions depending on how it's used. Since Neos NodeTypes do not automatically link image attributes to alt text properties, you must configure these details for NEOSidekick in YAML. After this setup, you can generate SEO-friendly alt texts directly in the Neos content editor. Here, you can also systematically apply these alt texts on bulk.

NEOSidekick can identify the most relevant pages for you and provide suggestions for each image title and alternative text of these pages.
