Hi! The Google guidelines teach us that is very important to have a specific sitemap for all the images on the web site to index.

For Wordpress there are a lot of plugin for this feature, I wondered if there is something also for DNN!

Also I'm wondering why in DNN forum is missing a specific section for SEO discussion!

Thanks!

 Really?  Surely they find properly linked images as a by-product of crawling the page.  I have seen a statement that extra tags in a sitemap allow them to find images only loaded by, say, javascript.  On a fully linked site I don't get it.

Why would it be important?  Do you have a link?

There are a lot of links on this topic, one of the firsts I've find with a simple google search is this

Also please notice that for Wordpress are available a lot of specific plugin for this topic and there will be a reason if they are been released!

I saw that page. It seems to support my view that the main point is to find images that are not simply linked... " Image sitemap information helps Google discover images we might not otherwise find (such as images your site reaches with JavaScript code), and allows you to indicate to Google images on your site that you want Google to crawl and index."

ISTM that best practice is to have a fully linked site. That way any spider, or any other tool, can find the images.

I know nothing about wordpress. The most likely reason to have a lot of plugins is to fill a deficiency in the basic product.

Yes, you are right! But adding a sitemap for images you're able to give additional informations to images!

I also do not know WP, but being the world's most popular CMS, sometimes I take it as a comparison to DNN
