Business Photo Guide

High-quality photos are one of the most important factors in attracting customers to your business on VegasVox. Listings with professional photos receive significantly more engagement than those without.

Why Photos Matter

Visitors to VegasVox are making decisions about where to eat, stay, and spend their time. Compelling photos help them visualize the experience and feel confident choosing your business.

Photo Requirements

Technical Specifications

  • Format: JPG or PNG
  • Minimum resolution: 1200 × 800 pixels
  • Maximum file size: 10 MB per image
  • Aspect ratio: Landscape (16:9 or 4:3) works best for most placements

Content Guidelines

  • Photos must accurately represent your current business
  • No watermarks, logos overlaid on images, or promotional text
  • No stock photos — all images must be of your actual location, food, or services
  • Images must not contain explicit or inappropriate content

Recommended Photo Categories

Hero Image

Your hero image is the first photo visitors see and appears prominently at the top of your listing. Choose your best, most representative photo for this slot.

Tips for a great hero image:

  • Use a wide shot that captures the atmosphere of your venue
  • Ensure good lighting — natural light or professional photography works best
  • Avoid busy or cluttered compositions

Interior Photos

Show visitors what to expect when they walk through the door. Include shots of the dining room, lobby, bar area, or any distinctive interior features.

Food & Drink (Restaurants)

  • Photograph signature dishes and popular menu items
  • Use natural lighting or a lightbox for food photography
  • Include drinks, desserts, and any visually distinctive items

Exterior & Location

Help visitors find and recognize your business with exterior shots showing signage, entrance, and surroundings.

Photos of staff, events, or guests enjoying your venue add authenticity and personality to your listing.
