Every product on Amazon needs one or more product images. The primary image of your product is called the “MAIN”. The MAIN image displays for a product in the search results and browses pages, and is the first image that customers see on product detail pages.

Images are very important to customers, so quality matters. Choose images that are clear, easy to understand, information-rich and attractively presented.

General image standards:

1. Images must accurately represent the product and only show the product that is for sale.
2. The product and all its features must be clearly visible.
3. MAIN images should have a pure white background (pure white blends in with the Amazon search and product detail pages – RGB colour values of 255, 255, 255).
4. MAIN images must be professional photographs of the actual product (graphics, illustrations, mock-ups or placeholders are not allowed). They must not show excluded accessories; props that might confuse the customer; text that is not part of the product; or logos, watermarks or inset images.
5. Images must match the product title.
6. Images should be 1,000 pixels or larger in either height or width. This minimum size requirement enables the zoom function on the website. Zoom has been proven to enhance sales. The smallest that your file can be is 500 pixels on its longest side.
7. Images must not exceed 10,000 pixels on the longest side.
8. Amazon accepts JPEG (.jpg), TIFF (.tif) or GIF (.gif) file formats, but JPEG is preferred.
