Every product has at least one high quality image at the recommended size.
Examples of badly sized images
Missing images and images at the wrong size

Multiple images

Adding multiple images really helps your clients to explore your products & services in detail. Consider adding images to show close up details or variations which are available. Users are able to scroll through all the images you upload when viewing product or service details in your online brochure.

Featured images
