5 photo mistakes killing your Jumia/Konga sales (free fixes)

I've been studying marketplace listings and I keep seeing the same photo mistakes costing sellers clicks:

1. Dark/blurry first image — buyers scroll past in 2 seconds. Shoot near a window in the morning; it's free studio lighting.

2. Cluttered background — the buyer should see YOUR product, not your bedroom. Plain wall or white bedsheet behind it.

3. Only one angle — marketplaces let you upload several photos. Show front, back, detail, and something for size reference.

4. No size reference — for fashion, state measurements clearly. Returns drop when buyers know what they're getting.

5. Inconsistent photos — when all your listings share the same clean style, your store looks like a brand, not a random seller.

Your title matters too: Brand + Product + Key feature + Size beats "beautiful dress for sale" every time — buyers search with keywords.

Which of these are you guilty of? Be honest 😅
