How to Optimise Photos for Zillow at imgresizr.com
Upload your property photo to imgresizr.com. Use the Resize tool to set 2048px wide — Zillow's recommended upload resolution. Use the Crop tool to set a 4:3 landscape ratio if not already in this format. Use the Enhance tool to: increase brightness by 20–30% for dark interiors, boost contrast for exterior shots, and increase saturation slightly for garden and outdoor photos. Straighten tilted shots using the Rotate tool — horizontal and vertical lines (door frames, ceiling edges) should be perfectly straight in architectural photography. Compress to under 5MB for reliable upload. Zillow recommends uploading a minimum of 15 photos per listing for maximum engagement.
Zillow Listing Photo Tips
- The first photo is the most critical — it appears as the thumbnail in search results and determines click-through rate
- Photographs taken in the golden hour (late afternoon natural light) outperform flash photography
- Stage each room before photographing — remove personal items and clutter
- Include at least one aerial drone photo if the property has significant outdoor space or a unique location
- Update photos if you make improvements — stale listing photos signal a property that is difficult to sell
