Simple, lightweight, and useful
Simple, lightweight, and very useful. Updating alt text for large media libraries is now effortless. A real time-saver!

Thanks for a nifty plugin!
The Image Alt Text plugin is easy to install, easy to get running, and easy to understand. I have six blogs with thousands of images without any alternative text at all! First, I used Image Alt Text to add simple alt text in bulk to all images. This took a matter of a few minutes for each site. Then I went back and manually rewrote the alt text to be readable and meaningful. Needless to say, this took considerably longer. Thanks for a nifty plugin!

This is a very convenient plugin.
After I uploaded alternative texts for over a hundred products, I realized I couldn't keep doing it that way. Then I found this plugin, and with just one click, all the uploads were completed.
