- We can’t stress the importance of great images. No one will be impressed with a blurry image or poor background
- Keep it simple. A selection of exterior and interior shots is crucial. Watch other posts to see how they do it
- Have the image change every few seconds to hold the users attention
- Ensure the first image is attractive
