EXIF data from images is often unintentionally removed during compression or optimization. However, this metadata is important for image SEO.

To add EXIF data to your image, you can use tools like https://www.thexifer.net/, which allows you to edit and embed metadata directly into your images.

Now, upload the image.

Then, click on the blue 'eXif.me' button.

Fill in the required data, then click the blue 'GO.EXIFING' button. Once processed, download the file using the download button.

To verify the embedded EXIF data, simply visit https://www.metadata2go.com/ and upload your file to view all integrated exif data.
