Product Images and Conversion Rates

Amazon found that every 100ms of added load time cost them 1% of revenue. Walmart reported a 2% increase in conversions for every 1 second of load time improvement. Product images are the heaviest assets on product pages.

A WooCommerce product page with 6 gallery images at 500 KB each loads 3 MB of image data. Compressed to WebP at 100 KB each: 600 KB. That is 2.4 MB saved per page view. On mobile, this translates to 2–3 seconds faster load time.

AI Metadata for Product Images

Product alt text needs to include the product name, color, material, and distinguishing attributes. The AI generates: "Navy blue leather bifold wallet with brass zipper closure, open showing card slots" — not "wallet" or "product image."

This level of specificity helps Google Image Search index your products accurately. It helps Google Shopping match your images to relevant product queries. It helps screen reader users understand what they are considering purchasing.
