You Need More Than 5 Product Images

Product Images

Do you have less than 5 product images on your TikTok Shop? You're leaving sales on the table!
You should be aiming for a sweet spot of 5 to 9 images per product. This way, you’re not overwhelming shoppers with too many pictures or leaving them craving more.

Key Tips for Uploading Photos

Here's what you should look out for when uploading your photos:

• Your first image in key in selling your product! You need to have a strong high resolution main photo. This should be a singular product unless part of a set. This can be in JPG, JPEG or PNG format.
• Keep your photos high quality. We want to avoid blurry or pixelated images, as they're less likely to receive clicks.
• Ensure each image matches the product title.
• Keep images appropriate for TikTok Shop! Avoid anything vulgar or sensitive that would go against brand guidelines.
• Use natural lighting or softbox lights. That way, your product is clear, and TikTok users know exactly what the product will look like before they purchase.
• Keep the background simple. You don't want it to distract from the product. Use the optimisation feature in the Seller Center to help clean up the photo by adding a white background.
• Ensure your images are in colour and not black & white.
• Don't stick to one photo angle. This is the perfect time to showcase multiple shots of your product.
  • Utilise the Seller Center when you're adding your photo. You'll see prompts to help you choose nine photos, including a primary, secondary, and close-up shot.
• Also, no duplicates! That's a violation.

The more variation you have in your photos, the better your product listing will look to TikTok users.
Customers are more likely to purchase from you when they see items they like from different angles, with a clear aesthetic background.
And what's great is you don't need to have professional equipment to take your photos!
All you need is a clear background, your products, your phone and good lighting.
