Hypothesis

Four fixed views can show details missing from the first image, while adding content and loading work. Keep the shared main image and add only the three pre-defined views, matched for image quality and lighting.

How to run this test

Primary metric

Purchase conversion rate (CR)

Compare purchases per assigned visitor across the two image counts.

Other metrics

  • Add-to-cart rateCheck whether shoppers take the first purchase step.
  • Gallery interaction rateUse swipes and zooms to describe interaction; extra images create more opportunities to interact.
  • Return rateTrack returns after an adequate, equal follow-up period.
  • Page load timeMake sure the additional images do not slow the page.

What to check before and during the test

  • Image countCompare one hero image with that same image plus three predefined angles.
  • OrderKeep the shared first image and the order of additional images fixed.
  • ControlsKeep existing gallery navigation consistent.
  • Media scopeDo not add video, 360-degree views or new zoom behavior.
  • CategoryReview results within relevant product categories.

Setup mistakes to avoid

  1. 1Do not reduce image resolution; it can change how the product is perceived.
  2. 2Use consistent lighting and color across the images.
  3. 3Keep the hero angle fixed and select all additional angles before launch.
  4. 4Do not make mobile touch targets harder to use.
  5. 5Avoid adding unnecessary text over the images.
