Getting ecommerce product images right

We should all know "The 4 P's of Marketing" by now, of: product, placement, price and promotion. However for selling online there's a 5th... Photo

If a picture is supposed to 'paint a thousands words', then a product image on your ecommerce site speaks volumes to your potential buyers (did I mix my metaphors there?).

There are a number of factors to consider with images, including their: size, quality, background, etc. Each can help to contribute to a sale and several of them can further help a customer make the important decision whether to buy or not.

Obviously the most important thing is to show the right image for the actual product, unlike this photo on Amazon I found..... Supposedly for a gas barbecue, but actually showing a white striped polo shirt.


Ooops!
