About the display of item images

About Specifications

■Second (or first) item image is displayed on the search result page.

BUYMA is currently actively exposing its items to the U.S. and Hong Kong, and one of our approaches is to place Google ads. In these ads, the items listed on the site itself are exposed.

In order to comply with Google's advertising standards, we have made a change so that the second image (or the first if the first or third image meets the standards) is displayed as the main image due to many seller's use edited or text overlay image as the main image which is not approved by Google ads..

If you use an image that does not meet the criteria (*), your ad exposure may be restricted, and your chances of receiving orders for that item may decrease in the future due to a drop in the number of visits.

Images that have been overly edited (text, watermark, collage, frames) are considered "inappropriate images" according to Google's advertising standards.

In order to meet the standard, we ask that the first and second item images be selected as "unprocessed" or "full items photos".

How to increase advertising exposure

If the second image does not meet the criteria, or the top image is not a "full items photo" such as a parts photo or a size chart, you can change the top image to either the first, second, or third image by default by submitting a request to BUYMA Member Support. 

We hope you will consider this change, as it will give you exposure in Google ads.
