💡 Tips for for Shopify
- ✓ Upload product photos as JPG at high quality (90%+). Shopify's CDN automatically converts and serves WEBP to browsers that support it.
- ✓ Use PNG only for product images that need a transparent background — for example, product cutouts placed on a white or colored page background.
- ✓ Upload at 2048 × 2048 px for the best zoom quality. Shopify scales down for thumbnails automatically but cannot scale up a small image without quality loss.
- ✓ Square images (1:1 ratio) give the most consistent display across themes, collection pages, and mobile layouts.
- ✓ Keep product JPG files under 1 MB each. Shopify deducts page load time from your store's conversion rate — faster images directly affect sales.
