Keep product detail sharp
Product photos need to load fast, but they also need to build trust. Avoid over-compressing textures, labels, and edges that shoppers use to inspect the item.
Start with a clean source image, crop consistently, and export to the dimensions your store theme uses.
Standardize your product workflow
Use the same crop ratio, background treatment, and export settings for similar products. Consistency makes collection pages easier to scan and helps your store feel more professional.
Batch work is easier when every image follows the same rule set.
Compress after editing
Remove backgrounds, fix crops, and adjust color before compression. Compression should be the final publishing step, not the first edit in the workflow.
- Save a master image.
- Export a web copy.
- Compress the web copy.
- Upload and test the product page.
Check mobile product pages
Many ecommerce visits happen on phones. Test product images on mobile after uploading because slow images and fuzzy details are easier to notice in a real shopping flow.
