    Image Best Practices


    Vibrant photos attract the attention of online shoppers and boost conversion rates. Let us look at some of the best practices which are useful for optimizing product images.

    Take high-resolution photos to get the best clarity.

    Upload product pictures from different angles giving potential customers, a 360 degree view of the product. It also helps in quelling their doubts.

    Do upload different images for different product variations if applicable. When a potential customer can visualize a product, they are more likely to purchase it.

    Maintain image specifications and consistency.

    If you are using flash and a white background on one of your image, use the same specs for all the other pictures.

    Use a stable camera or consider using a tripod to steady the camera when the image is captured. No one likes grainy, unstable and unclear shots of the product.

    We saved the best for last! Lighting can make or break your images. We recommend using soft diffused light to highlight the product and not the background.

    Image Optimization Tools


    There are tons of image editing and optimisation software on the market today.

    You don’t have to rush to get a professional photographer for your product images, a free photo enhancement tool and some free time is all you need. Blurry images can be turned into clear and enticing ones once you start getting the hang of this.

    Some of the popular free photo editors online are GIMP, Paint.NET, Photo Pos Pro, PhotoScape, Fotor and many more. In fact, they have free versions with limited editing functionalities while the paid version gives you complete freedom and comes with a host of features.

    Finally, excellent images can boost your brand and make your product visually enticing to potential customers. High resolution and vibrant photos not only make the product stand out but also give you that competitive edge on eBid.

    Enjoy high conversion rates, happier customers and fewer returns with optimized, clear and bright images on eBid.
