Top Hero Image Trends
Vacuums pointed to the left
The highest-scoring hero images in the vacuum cleaner category overwhelmingly featured products angled to the left. This was true of vacuums posed on their own as well as those with a full stock of modes and accessories.
Accessories on full display
Many of the top hero visuals displayed vacuums with all of their included accessories or multifunctional options, such as different nozzles, hoses, or usage in different scenarios. All of these configurations were typically posed at the same left angle on a white background.
Posed product shots
The few instances of hero imagery showing the vacuums in action did not perform well with the Online Appliance Shopper audience. Consumers much preferred traditional, posed product shots against plain backgrounds.
Top Carousel Image Trends
Accessory image compilations
Showing off accessories in the image carousels was also an effective trend. Many of the highest-scoring visuals in the category benchmark used image compilations to display the accessories posed or in use in an organized layout.
Real-life cleaning scenarios
Another highly engaging visual trend was showcasing the vacuums being used to clean different household items and surfaces. These visuals were often grids or collages displaying the multiple uses side by side.
Functional diagrams
Online Appliance Shoppers appreciated carousel imagery that used cross-sectional or illustrated diagrams to show off how the vacuums operated. These diagrams were often paired with helpful labels of parts and benefits. Prime examples included how the filtration system or suction power worked.

About Vizit Content Scoring
Vizit Content Scoring
Vizit scores visual content for effectiveness with consumer audiences. Each image receives a score from 0-100 that predicts its level of effectiveness with the specified audience. Product detail page (PDP) or listing-level scores are driven by an aggregate score of the product hero or primary imagery, carousel or secondary imagery, volume of content, and sequencing of content. Content Effectiveness Rankings scores may aggregate several brand PDPs depending on retailer search and best seller lists, which fluctuate often. Higher-scoring images and PDPs are more effective and appealing to online shopper audiences.
About Content Benchmarks
Content Benchmarks
Vizit content benchmarks are sets of competitive visual content on specified retailers. These content benchmarks provide valuable performance context and comparisons with specific examples of high and low scoring imagery. Content Effectiveness Rankings are based on an analysis of the first 100 products that appear on a retailer search query or best seller list.
