Other Requirements of Amazon:

It is important to describe the necessary information about each product. You can include the brand name, product model number, a brief description, etc. If any customer likes the photo, he will try to know more details about the product. So try to specify as much information as you can. But don’t give irrelevant information. Because it will make customers boring and they will leave the page. Perhaps your description is small, but always keep it simple and ensure relevancy.

2. Emphasis on Quality:
You should always give importance to quality images. Studies showed, most people click on high-resolution images. And if you get more clicks, there will be a chance of more sales. Therefore, Amazon requires high-quality images. Upload sharp, well-lit, and realistic pictures. Kern stated that “ Don’t increase the vibrance, clarity, and saturation too much. Try to keep it original.” He also said, “Customers should exactly get the same product that they saw online before ordering”. So there shouldn’t be any variations in product color and quality.

3. Get the Zoom Effect:
If you want to make your products visible more closely, Amazon has set-up a zoom effect. But for that, your images should be large enough. In this way, you can draw your customers’ attention more perfectly to have a close view of your products and grow the chances of making sales. Many people suggest keeping the resolution of the image 3000 pixels. But according to Amazon, You need to use a minimum of 1000 pixels images for the zoom effect.
