The success of your online shop or website is largely determined by the quality of your images. Several studies have shown that online shoppers will buy more products when they are provided with clear graphics. Whether your images are good enough can be determined on the basis of the following six indicators:

Name

It is important to always give product images a name partly because the image is linked to Google Images search results. As more people search via Google Images, the right image name increases the chances of more relevant visitors and thus additional revenue.

Alt tag

An image in Google images can also be displayed on the alt tag. This is the name that will appear when the mouse is moved over an image. An alt tag can be activated by the following line in the source code of your Magento webshop sites:

<Img width = "350 height =" 350 "alt =" product name "src =" / images / naam_product.jpg

Where "product name" for the name of the product which accompanies the image.

Dimensions

If your website does not use a zoom function, the product images are at least 350 x 350 pixels. Otherwise, 750 x 760 pixels.

Format

To display a product image as sharp as possible in your websites, we always recommend putting the images in .PNG format when uploaded.

Positioning

The product images should be  completely centered, as it may otherwise provide for large visual discomfort when your visitors view them.  

Background

If your product images are provided with busy or ugly background leads, the viewers attention shifts from what really matters: the product. All product images should therefore be equipped with a transparent background.
