Auction Picture Hosting

Choosing the right auction picture hosting plan can be confusing. That is why we have created the following tables for an easy to follow guide in choosing your requirements.

Bigger is not always better for auction pictures. Users will not wait for an image to load if they are in a hurry. That is why it is necessary to keep your images at a managable size. Images should be no larger than 50k for optimal auction listings.

Approx. # of Images:*	100	200	400	800
Size in MB's:	5mb	10mb	20mb	40mb
Price:	$4.00	$6.00	$10.00	$16.00
* Based on an average image size of 50k.

The plan you need depends on three variables. How many images you wish to include in your auction listings, the average image size and how many auctions you have running at any one time.

Here is an easy to follow table that will display how much room each auction listing will occupy. The next step will be to multiply this number by the average number of listings you have running at any one time.

A good template to follow when creating a listing is to use 3 detailed images at 50k each.

	Number of Images in Each Listing:
Size of Image:	1	2	3	4	5	6
25k	25k	50k	75k	100k	125k	150k
50k	50k	100k	150k	200k	250k	300k
75k	75k	150k	225k	300k	*	*
100k	100k	200k	300k	*	*	*
125k	125k	250k	*	*	*	*
150k	150k	300k	*	*	*	*
* This combination is not recommended as it will take an unacceptable amount of time to load.

Next, multiply the space reserved for each listing by the average amount of auctions you will have running at any one time. Listed below in the box will be the auction picture hosting plan that is suited for you.

	Average Number of Auction Listings Running:
Size of Listing:	5	10	25	50	100	200
25k	5mb	5mb	5mb	5mb	5mb	10mb
50k	5mb	5mb	5mb	5mb	10mb	20mb
75k	5mb	5mb	5mb	5mb	10mb	20mb

In determining the size of an auction picture hosting account you need, remember that it is usually a good idea to store the images from a completed auction for a week or two longer. This always buyers that search eBay's completed items to see your COMPLETE listing and this is a good avenue to get buyers to see your other auctions that are running.
