The only mandatory one is alternative text, it should explain the image for blind people using screen readers. It's an accessibility ranking factor for Google.
Title, caption and description all can be SEO optimized but are not necessarily important: Title is for the internal use and image url, description is what goes on the image's attachment-page that your theme creates and caption is small text that gets shown below the image wherever it's displayed.

For images in WordPress you should use alt text for accessibility and SEO, title for tooltips, caption for visible context, and description for extra details. Focus on alt text because it is very impotent for SEO.

Yes, it's important to use different alt text, titles, captions, and descriptions for each image in WordPress because they serve different purposes, like helping with SEO, accessibility and user engagement. This differentiation gives search engines more context, which can improve your site's rankings. Optimizing images to WebP with Smush is also good for improving site speed, which helps with SEO too.

Yes, it's important to use unique alt text, titles, captions, and descriptions for each image when uploading to WordPress. This enhances SEO by helping search engines understand your images and improves accessibility for visually impaired users. Optimizing images with like Smush for WebP conversion is great, but don't neglect the textual attributes, as they play a significant role in SEO.

Just focus on the alternative text because this google will be focused on. And also, when someone uses a screen reader to read content from your website, the alternative text will be used by the screen reader especially for blind people.

In WordPress, use alt text for accessibility and SEO, titles for tooltips, captions for visible context, and descriptions for additional details. Alt text is especially important for improving both accessibility and search engine optimization.
