Naming images correctly also makes it much easier to find specific images when searching within the WordPress library. For good SEO images should be named in the following way:
- Rename all images names using the guide below
- Do not use images with random (camera-generated) naming
- Do not use commas, capitals or apostrophes
- Replace spaces with hyphens
IMG_353.jpg | NO |
image name.jpg | NO |
IMAGE-NAME.jpg | NO |
image’s-name.jpg | NO |
image-name.jpg | YES |
For a collection of images, use numbering.
image-name-01.jpg, image-name-02.jpg, image-name-03.jpg
