🖼️ Adding Images and Video to Your Sales Description

Explains the new heading, image and video tools in the sales description editor, including where added media appears.

🖼️ What you can add

The sales description editor now has a heading button, an Add image button, and an Add video button on its toolbar, so you can make your sales description as engaging as the rest of your product page.

The description box is also taller than before. It starts at about 280px and grows to about 420px as you type, giving you more room to work with.

📷 Adding an image

You can add an image to your description by uploading it, pasting it, or dragging it in, whichever is quickest for you.

  1. Click where you want the image to appear, or select some text first.

  2. Click the Add image button, or paste or drag an image file straight into the editor.

  3. Your image uploads (you'll see Uploading image while it finishes) and then appears in your description.

Uploaded images must be JPG, PNG, GIF or WebP, and up to 8 MB. The long edge is resized to 1600px. SVG and HTML files are not accepted as images.

🎬 Adding a video

You can add a video by pasting a link from YouTube, Vimeo, Loom or Wistia into the description. It's inserted as a playable video, not just a link, which is a great way to show off what buyers are getting before they purchase. Links from other video sites are not accepted for video embeds.

✨ Where it goes

When you add an image or video, it's inserted right after your current selection or cursor position, so it won't replace any text you already selected. This makes it easy to build out a rich, visual sales description that does your product justice.

Any image or video you add to your sales description shows up both on your product page and on your hub's first screen, so it's worth getting right.

A well-placed image or short video can go a long way toward helping potential buyers understand what they're getting, so don't be afraid to use a few throughout your description.
