Image quality
The resolution of your product images determines its quality. Google considers images with more than 1024 pixels as high-resolution images.
There are many ways to improve the quality of your images including:
- Add robots meta tags max-image-size: large to your website. This tag will help Google use the highest-quality images from your website without any further action from your side.
- Ensure that all the products available on your website are also listed in your Merchant Center account. Merchant Center can then automatically use higher-quality images, even if the ones you uploaded were of lower quality.
Note: You can increase resolution, remove backgrounds, and generate a scene for your products using Product Studio which is available for Merchant Center Next users and within the Google & YouTube app in Shopify.
