How to write better image alt text on Wix with AI
Featured Apps
Image alt text helps search engines understand your images and helps visitors using screen readers understand what is on the page. On a Wix site with many product photos, blog images, galleries, or portfolio shots, writing useful alt text by hand can take a long time. SEO for Images: AI Alt Text gives site owners a faster way to generate descriptive alt text and then copy it into the right image settings.
What good alt text should do
- Describe the image accurately.
- Mention the subject or product when it matters.
- Include a keyword only when it fits naturally.
- Avoid keyword stuffing or repeating the same phrase on every image.
- Stay useful for accessibility, not only SEO.
A simple workflow
- Open the Wix page with images you want to improve.
- Choose the most important images first: product photos, hero images, gallery images, and blog visuals.
- Use SEO for Images: AI Alt Text to generate a first draft.
- Edit the result so it matches the image and page context.
- Copy the final alt text into the image settings.
- Repeat for the next high-value image.
Examples
Weak alt text says photo, image, or product. Better alt text says handmade ceramic mug with blue glaze on a wooden table. For a service business, better alt text might say wedding photographer taking outdoor portraits at sunset. The best version is specific, readable, and honest.
SEO tip
Do not use the same alt text across a whole gallery. If several images show the same product, describe what is different: color, angle, use case, material, room, style, or detail shot. Small differences help both accessibility and image SEO.
