We organise your media library by tagging and categorising images in bulk, based on what each one actually depicts — making a large, previously unsorted library searchable and manageable, distinct from writing alt text, which describes an image for accessibility and search rather than organising it for your own internal use.
Media library tagging & categorisation - bulk
Your media library tagged and organised for your own searching — not alt text.
- Full backup taken before we start
- If we can’t fix it, you get your money back
- We never ask for your own password
What we need from you
- Access to the media library needing organisation
- Confirmation of your preferred tagging or category structure, if you have one in mind
- Confirmation of scope
This or something else?
| You want your media library tagged and categorised for easier internal searching and management | This fix covers it |
| You want alt text generated instead, for accessibility and search purposes | AI alt text generation for media library, a different purpose entirely |
| You want images reassigned as featured images on posts or products, not just tagged | Featured image assignment – bulk, in the Content & Updates bucket |
| You don’t have an existing tagging structure and want one designed | We can propose a sensible structure as part of this fix if you don’t already have one |
What we do
- Analyse each image to determine appropriate tags or categories
- Apply your existing structure, or propose a sensible one if none exists
- Tag and categorise images accordingly
- Flag any image too ambiguous to categorise confidently
- Verify the library is genuinely more searchable and organised afterward
- Provide a written summary of what was applied
What is included
- Media library images tagged and categorised in bulk
- A proposed structure, if none existed
- Flags for ambiguous images
- A written summary
Not included
- Writing alt text — a separate, different-purpose fix
- Assigning images as featured images on specific content — a separate, related fix
- Renaming files or rewriting alt text as part of this organisation
- Ongoing tagging as new images are added
Questions about this fix
Is this the same as writing alt text?
No — alt text describes an image for accessibility and search; this organises your media library for your own internal browsing and management, a different purpose entirely.
What if I don't already have a tagging structure in mind?
We can propose a sensible one based on what's actually in your library, rather than requiring you to design it yourself first.
Will this help me find images faster in the media library?
Yes, that's the core benefit — a large, untagged library is genuinely hard to search through, and this makes it meaningfully more manageable.
Can this be combined with the alt text generation service?
Yes, they're complementary — many sites benefit from having both done, though they're priced and delivered as separate fixes.
How large a library can this handle?
This scales to a large library — more images means more to categorise, reflected in scope rather than being a hard limit.

If this is the second time this year
A bad update breaking the site is a symptom of updates not being tested first. Care plans run every update on a staging clone before it reaches your live site, which is the actual fix for this happening again.
Your access, your rules
Create a separate admin account for us and delete it when we are done. For anything else, we get in touch and agree a method — never a form field on this site, never by reply to an email.
We back up first, always
Before anything is touched we take a full backup and keep it for 30 days. If a fix goes wrong, we put the site back exactly as it was.
If it is not what you bought
If the problem turns out smaller than what you ordered, we refund the difference. If it is bigger, we stop and send a quote before doing any extra work.
If we cannot fix it
You get back what we received. Diagnosis is on us — you only pay when the problem is actually solved. The payment processor takes its fee before the money reaches us, so we never hold it and it is not ours to return. That is true here as everywhere else.
If it comes back
Reply within seven days of delivery and we put it back on the bench at no cost. The fix is not finished until it holds.
What we are responsible for
If something goes wrong with a fix, our responsibility is limited to what you paid for it. We take a full backup first so mistakes can be undone, and we tell you before doing anything outside what you bought.
