Optimize Your Images in Photoshop

Add Meta Tags

Meta tags are bits of code that tell search engines and people visiting your website about certain pages. There should be only one Meta tag for each page of your website. Our main topics today will be Meta Page Titles and Meta Page Descriptions.

There is a search engine optimization area in most content management systems and SEO plug-ins where you can enter your own page titles and descriptions. 

The title of a webpage is set by the Meta tag “page title.” In search engine results pages, the browser tab at the top of your screen, and social media links all have them. As you write exceptional page titles, remember these five things:

  • Just 60 characters or less.
  • As an example, “Our Web Services | Informatics Inc.” would be a good page title that includes your business name at the end.
  • It’s important for your business that you include where you are (e.g., Our Web Services | Informatics Inc. | Cedar Rapids, IA).
  • For example, instead of commas, use pipes to split key phrases.
  • Do not use more than 300 characters.
  • Add the terms you want to rank for on that page.
  • Don’t use double quotes because Google doesn’t understand them and will cut them off.
  • Make your information interesting so people want to click on your link.
  • Do not get the Meta description from the text of your page.

As long as you or someone else doesn’t delete it, meta data stays in a file. It will be saved even if you change the type of the file, like from RAW to Photoshop. When someone gets it from your website, they can read it all in Photoshop or another app.

Social media sites, file storage apps, and other web services do, however, regularly remove some information. But some, like Instagram, get rid of everything, even copyright information, while others keep the camera information.

If you don’t want people to be able to find you or your subjects, you might also want to remove the metadata from your photos before you share them. You can choose to embed “Copyright and Contact Info” or no metadata at all when you use Photoshop’s Export As tool (File > Export > Export As).

Export Images With Copyright & Contact Information

We’ve all probably seen firsthand how files can get lost or jumbled. When we work with clients on projects or on art licensing, we send them high-quality versions of our original art.

People who get access to the file will know who the original artist or author is and even what year the file was sent or made if our names and copyright information are included.

There are copyrights on most of the pictures on Amazon. Picture rules cover all kinds of pictures, like product pictures and other pictures.

Picture makers (usually photographers) own the copyright to their work from the moment it was made, just like people who own books, music, and movies. What this means is that only they can use, share, and show their pictures.

You can tell if a seller on Amazon owns the pictures of their products because they took them themselves or hired a photographer to do so, or they have permission from the owner of the intellectual property to use those Amazon listing images. 

If a seller wants to use any content on Amazon, including pictures, they must either own it or have the legal right to do so. If you use copyrighted pictures without permission, the owner of the rights could take legal action, suspend your listing, or even close your account. 

It’s important to know that Amazon pictures are protected by copyright law, whether you’re a customer or someone else who wants to use images found on Amazon. If you use these pictures without the owner’s permission, you might be violating their copyright.

What Leads To Amazon Infringement?

Amazon buyers may be accused of trademark infringement, copyright infringement, and patent infringement. Now, let’s discuss each one in greater detail.

Trademark Infringement

It means you put someone else’s registered trademark or a logo that looks like it on goods or packaging without their permission. Navigating trademark patterns and writing in the wrong way is part of this. Most of the time, trademark infringement happens when:

  • Without permission, selling goods that have a recognized trademark on them, like selling fake brand-name goods.
  • When you list a product, don’t use someone else’s brand or a similar one in the title, features and description, keywords, or any other information. For instance, calling it something like “NIKE” or “Nik” to trick people into thinking it’s a real Nike product.
  • When making Amazon listing images being compared or using scenarios, using someone else’s brand patterns and name is prohibited.
Copyright Infringement

For example, using someone else’s original text, pictures, or music files without their permission is called copyright infringement. For instance, selling DVDs or books without permission. Copyright infringement also includes:

  • Patterns that aren’t allowed on the object or its packaging. This happens when anyone uses well-known patterns, cartoon characters, or game figures without permission. To give you an example, copyright protects the happy face that everyone uses. Imitating this happy face on goods without permission is illegal.
  • If you use someone else’s work without their permission, the way it looks or is made might be against their rights. Make sure you are careful with one-of-a-kind styles, as they may be protected by copyright.
  • One example is the Christmas tree we all know. Some of them are designed differently, even though they may look the same. Copyright violations also happen when they are sold without permission or when the style is used to make plates or other things.

Export Images With Targeted Keywords

You should not assume that no one notices the names you give your pictures or where you store them on your website. Even more importantly, Search Engines depend on every little clue they can find to figure out what your images are about and how they connect to the text that’s around them.

 As we already know, images can’t be identified, interpreted, or understood by themselves. An image’s filename and the folder name it’s stored in will give the search engine more information about what the image is about and how relevant it is to a search result. 

Your webpage title, description, header tags, and page content will do most of the work of telling the search engine what your page and Amazon listing images are about. picture filenames are sometimes the only clues a search engine has about what a picture is about if the page doesn’t have any text related to it.

Add Alt Keywords In Amazon A+ Content Modules

Even though interesting Amazon listing images are important for Amazon A+ Content, alt keywords are a gem just ready to be found. These short descriptions are very important for making your goods more visible and improving the user experience. It’s more important than you think to add alt keywords to your A+ Content modules:

SEO’s Secret Weapon

Search engine optimization (SEO) experts say that alt text is like a secret tool. Even though Amazon FBA doesn’t directly scan the text in your A+ Content, Google and other search engines do! 

If you carefully use relevant amazon keywords in your alt text, your product’s A+ Content is more likely to show up in search results when people type those terms in. Imagine a beautiful picture that shows off your unique pet water fountain.

 The alt text could say something like “Automatic pet water fountain with replaceable filter for clean, fresh water,” which would draw people who are looking for features like that.

Bridge for Easy Access

Alt text is a way for people who are blind or have low vision to use screen readers to get around the web. These descriptions act as your customers’ eyes, helping them understand what your pictures show and help them make smart choices about your goods.  

For instance, the alt text for a picture of your new line of organic baby food pouches could say “Variety pack of organic baby food pouches in different flavors.” This way, all of your buyers will be able to see this information.

Mini-Billboards To Get More Sales

Don’t just describe Amazon listing images in simple terms. If you write good alt text, your A+ Content can turn into little ads. This small space lets you show important features and benefits, which might get people’s attention and make them want to convert.  

A picture of your ergonomic office chair, for example, could have the alt text “Supportive office chair with adjustable lumbar support for comfort,” which would quickly get across one of your main selling points.

By using these tips, you’re not only adding alt keywords, you’re also making the A+ Content experience more useful and interesting. This means that your SEO will be better, your site will be easier to use, and your sales rates will go up.

Not More Than 250 Bytes

It might seem like Amazon’s 250-byte limit on backend search terms is too tight, but there are good reasons to stick to this.

Focus & Relevancy

Since there is only so much room, you have to pick the keywords that are most important to your product. This will make sure that your listing comes up when people really search for things like what you give. 

Your limited space forces you to focus on the main keywords that really describe your goods. By doing this, your offering will show up in searches that are related to what you offer. For example, imagine going over the limit and putting words like “toys” into a power bank. 

In addition to making potential buyers confused, this could hurt your ranking for searches like “portable charger” or “USB-C charger.” Simply by focusing on the most relevant keywords and similar versions, you can attract the right people and clearly explain how your product works.

Accuracy and Control

More detailed keywords can be added to a short list. This targeted method gives you the best chance of getting in touch with your ideal customers. Use Amazon FBA search query reports. They contain a wealth of information about the exact words people use to look for similar items.

 Use this information to improve your list of keywords and make sure you’re writing in a way that your target audience can understand. 

By getting rid of general terms and replacing them with focused keywords, you send Amazon’s search algorithm a clear message. This could help your listing rank higher than listings that use too many irrelevant terms.

Since room is limited, get rid of unnecessary things. You can leave out stop words like “a,” “the,” and “for” because they don’t have a big effect on search results. When you can, use symbols and abbreviations. 

For instance, “USB-C” works a lot better than “Universal Serial Bus Type-C.” Finally, use spaces instead of commas to split your keywords. This lets Amazon’s search engine properly index your goods, so the right people can find it at the right time.

Ranking Optimization

Amazon’s search algorithm gives more weight to relevance than term saturation when it comes to ranking optimization. A short list with lots of relevant terms shows that the product is well-optimized, which could help your ranking compared to lists that are too long and full of general terms.

Bottom Line

Photoshop won’t directly make your Amazon page more visible, but it can help you make high-quality images of your products that will. Finally, using Photoshop to make product shots that look professional can help your Amazon listings get more views, clicks, and sales.

Infuse your A+ Content modules with stunning, high-resolution images edited to perfection in Photoshop. This visually rich tapestry grabs attention and engages potential buyers.
