About SEO Optimized Images
From the official readme · v2.2.1Description
The SEO Optimized Images plugin lets you dynamically insert SEO-Friendly “alt” and “title” attributes to your images. Simply activate the plugin, provide the pattern, and you are ready to go.
The plugin dynamically replaces the “alt” and “title” tags. It does not make any changes to the database. This means that if you deactivate the plugin, everything will return to the original settings.
With the plugin, you can insert an image name, a post title and a post category in the “title” and “alt” attributes of the image.
