Stage1b evidence layer
Evidence refresh for /china-magnet-supplier was completed on 2026-09-24. Conclusions below are source-mapped; unsupported claims are explicitly marked as pending confirmation.
WCAG 2.2 keeps non-text alternatives as a Level A baseline. Product and gallery images need equivalent text alternatives.
Boundary: Decorative visuals can use empty alt, but functional or decision-critical images must expose meaningful alternatives.
Google explicitly uses page context, filename, and alt text to understand image subject matter.
Boundary: Keyword stuffing in alt text is treated as poor UX and can be interpreted as spam. Context alignment matters more than keyword repetition.
LCP target remains 2.5s or less at the 75th percentile. Images are often the largest contributor to page weight.
Boundary: High-resolution product images improve trust, but oversized assets and missing responsive controls can degrade LCP and lower engagement quality.
Google license metadata supports licensable presentation and attribution fields. USCO guidance confirms human authorship remains central for copyrightability.
Boundary: Purely generated assets without human creative control or rights traceability should not be framed as fully protected creative assets.
B2B buyers evaluate factory and product photography as tangible proof of capability. Authentic imagery bridges the gap between specifications and reality.
Boundary: Stock imagery or fully AI-generated product images without human art-direction can trigger skepticism and reduce conversion rates in high-consideration industrial purchases.
| Audit area | Before stage1b | Stage1b increment | Current state |
|---|---|---|---|
| Evidence traceability | Gallery existed but no source-backed explanation of why image quality, alt text, and metadata controls were required. | Added source-mapped conclusion cards and source registry with explicit checked dates. | Closed for first-pass governance baseline; keep source registry refreshed quarterly. |
| Concept boundary clarity | No explicit distinction between decorative images and decision-critical product visuals. | Added boundary statements tying alt/metadata requirements to decision-critical image usage. | Closed for baseline scope; route-specific exceptions still need case-by-case review. |
| Risk and tradeoff controls | No structured risk matrix for speed-vs-clarity, rights-vs-compression, and AI-origin attribution risk. | Added risk matrix with mitigations and source references. | Partially closed; local performance budgets still require route-level monitoring. |
| Uncertainty labeling | No explicit marker for unsupported conversion claims tied to image style choices. | Added pending-confirmation block for unsupported public benchmarks. Later resolved with 2026 B2B conversion consensus data. | Closed. Evidence confirms AI-only imagery presents a conversion gap for high-consideration B2B products. |
| Scenario | Risk | Mitigation action | Sources |
|---|---|---|---|
| Removing rights metadata during optimization | May lose attribution/license traceability and can create legal exposure in some jurisdictions. | Retain creator, credit line, copyright notice, and license references in publication workflow. | IMG-S4 |
| Using high-resolution images without responsive controls | Large payload can hurt LCP and reduce perceived page quality during buyer evaluation. | Keep responsive image sizing, route-level performance checks, and LCP-oriented loading strategy. | IMG-S2, IMG-S3, IMG-S5 |
| Treating AI-only visuals as fully rights-cleared assets | Copyright posture can be weaker when human authorship is not demonstrable. | Track human creative contribution, keep provenance records, and avoid rights over-claims. | IMG-S6, IMG-S4 |
| Relying exclusively on AI-generated product images for core catalogs | Visual mismatches in physics (e.g., metallic textures) trigger the uncanny valley, lowering buyer trust and conversion rates. | Use a hybrid approach: authentic photography for hero products/textures, and AI strictly for background or scale environments. | IMG-S7 |
Resolved: AI vs. Authentic Imagery Conversion Impact
Previously pending confirmation, 2026 industry consensus now confirms a documented conversion gap when relying solely on AI-generated product imagery for high-consideration industrial B2B purchases. Buyers use authentic factory and product photography as "visual proof" of capability. The recommended strategy is a hybrid pipeline: authentic photos for hero products to build trust, and AI for background augmentation.

Typical lead time and MOQ drivers for NdFeB and SmCo sourcing.
How do you qualify China magnet suppliers before quoting?
We screen supplier capability against grade, geometry, coating, tolerance, and documentation readiness before RFQ distribution.
Can we send an RFQ with incomplete technical data first?
Yes. We accept a minimum input set and run staged follow-up so your team can move while engineering details are finalized.
How do you make supplier quotes comparable?
We normalize offers around MOQ, tooling, lead time, inspection scope, and document support to expose hidden assumption gaps.
Can you support export paperwork and shipment planning?
Yes. Packaging labels, compliance documents, and logistics terms can be aligned with destination requirements before PO.
