ETSY PLATFORM GUIDES

Plan Etsy Listing Photos and Video as One Sequence

Build one Etsy listing sequence that shows the item, detail, scale, process, variation, and condition. Use photos for inspection and the short listing video for visible material, movement, or use.

REDUCE BUYER UNCERTAINTY

Give Every Etsy Media Slot a Different Purpose

Use the sequence to answer what the item is, what the buyer receives, how large it is, how it looks up close, and how it behaves in use.

Primary role

Listing photos

Show the complete item, detail, scale, variations, condition, packaging, process, and what is included.

Listing video

Show texture, movement, use, handling, process, or an all-around view within a short sequence.

Sequence planning

Listing photos

Make the first image clear at thumbnail size, then let each supporting photo answer one remaining question.

Listing video

Begin with the item already visible, show one useful action or material behavior, and end on a stable product view.

Before publishing

Listing photos

Check current dimensions, ratio, crop, focus, color, variation accuracy, condition, and the listing preview.

Listing video

Check current length, file size, format, resolution, ratio, sound handling, export, and upload behavior.

PLAN A COMPLETE LISTING

Arrange the Listing in the Order Buyers Need Answers

Introduce the item first, then answer questions about detail, scale, condition, variation, process, and use without repeating the same view.

  1. 01

    Introduce the complete item

    Use the first image to make the item, variation, and included contents immediately understandable.

  2. 02

    Show detail, scale, and condition

    Use supporting photos to reveal material, construction, real scale, condition, and what the buyer receives.

  3. 03

    Use short video for dynamic information

    Show movement, texture, use, process, or an all-around view within the short listing-video window.
