Photos: what to upload and why it matters

Three different photos do three different jobs, and mixing them up is the most common mistake:

  • Your cover photo is your space. It appears on your card in search — it should say what kind of place this is
  • Your portfolio is your work. This is what convinces somebody you can do the thing they want
  • Service photos sit next to individual services and help somebody choose between them

A headshot in the cover slot makes your card look like a profile instead of a business, which is why we do not fill it in for you from your provider photo.

Shot on a phone, in daylight, against a plain wall, beats a professional photo of the wrong subject.
