Images and WordPress

Good photos, logos, icons and other images on a site are key to a website's appeal, popularity and conversion rates.

Tracy Cannon and Jackie Dana will talk about the importance of images to a successful website; how to use the media uploader; the new(ish) galleries available through the Jetpack plugin; the value of the alt tag and captions for SEO; copyright-free sources for images; and anything else there's time to discuss. The focus of this meetup will be on native WordPress functionality and Jetpack rather than third-party plugins.

We did a version of this topic at a weekday Focus on Content meetup which only a few people attended. Since the conversation was so interesting and people seemed to get a lot out of it, we decided to do this again for a larger evening crew!

**Note: this is a great meetup for beginners and intermediate users to attend.
