Writing good alt-text is an essential skill for making your website accessible and user-friendly.

In this workshop, we’ll cover the basics of writing effective image descriptions so everyone can fully experience your content.

We’ll go through:

– How to describe an image accurately
– Keeping your text concise and clear
– Adding important context when needed
– What not to include in alt-text
– When to mention text that appears in an image
– Why keyword stuffing is harmful
– How context changes the way alt-text should be written

To make things practical, we’ll also demonstrate the process directly in WordPress, showing you where and how to add alt-text when uploading and editing images. You’ll see exactly how it fits into your site’s workflow and have the chance to ask questions about real examples.

By the end of the session, you’ll feel more confident about writing alt-text that improves accessibility and enhances your site’s overall quality.
