my impression lists

hi

i would like to know...if u think...when i adding words on my images on my lists...if the algorithm of ebay doesn't like it (less impression) ...or its doesn't matter?

for example..i want to list 2 pack..so my first picture i put the item and adding text "2 pack".

do u think its ok or maybe ebay wants only pictures without text?

thank u for the help.

@good4megold4you Below is the picture policy. Nothing can be added to a photo, including watermarks for attribution, borders, or other text or artwork.

 

https://www.ebay.com/help/policies/listing-policies/picture-policy?id=4370

The following are not allowed:

  • Photos that don't accurately represent the item
  • Placeholder images used to convey messages
  • Stock photos for used, damaged, or defective items
  • Photos with added borders
  • Photos with added text, artwork or marketing material
  • Watermarks of any type, including those used for ownership attributions”

To answer your question, yes, if your photos don’t follow policy, your images may not be optimized for SEO and can affect your placement in Search.

You seem dug in about putting text in your photos . EBay  says no text in photos. Are you not understanding that?You are probably days away about having all your listings ended, and a possible suspension just so you can prove a point. Any particular reason for that? Some suspensions are temporary, more and more are permanent with no appeal.

I don't mean to be contrarian, but I don't think putting '2 pack' on the photo is a problem - I see "USA Seller", etc., on photos, and it's necessary information, and in this case alerting the buyer as to exactly what they get. I also don't think it will be problem with any algorithm, or my listings where photos have text on them would never rank or sell. 

 

ETA: A way to get around this is to have a small sign next to the item that says "2 pack" when you photograph it.

i see aswell many sellers thay using few logos in the same picture in the list.

like: free shipping, fast shipping .. or best seller..

stuff like that..

and after that they sale many items..so maybe its not really problem...
