Adding a video gallery to your Shopify store is a great way to showcase your products in action, or to simply add some personality to your site. There are a few different ways to go about adding a video gallery to Shopify, and in this article, we’ll walk you through each method.
Method 1: Adding Videos with the built-in Shopify Video Player
Shopify includes a built-in video player that makes it easy to add videos to your product pages and blog posts. To add a video using the Shopify video player:
1. From your Shopify admin, go to Online Store > Pages (or Blog Posts). 2.
Click the page (or blog post) where you want to add the video. 3. In the WYSIWYG editor, click the Add video button.
4. In the Add Video dialog box, paste the URL of the video you want to add. You can also upload a video file from your computer by clicking the Upload Video tab.
5. Once you’ve added the video URL (or uploaded a video file), click Insert Video.
Your video will now appear on the page (or blog post). You can move it around by clicking and dragging, or change its size by clicking the small icon in the top-right corner of the video and dragging one of the handles.
1. Make sure you have the correct license for the videos you want to use. You can’t just use any videos you find on the internet, you need to make sure you have the correct license for the videos you want to use in your video gallery.
2. Make sure the videos are high quality and relevant to your products. Customers will be turned off if they see low quality or irrelevant videos in your video gallery.
3. Take time to create a good thumbnail image for each video. This will help customers find the right video more easily and make sure they click on it when they’re looking for a specific product demonstration.
4. Make sure your videos are hosted on a reliable platform. If your videos keep buffering or are slow to load, customers will quickly lose interest and move on to another store.
By following these tips, you can create an engaging and informative video gallery that will help show off your products and boost sales.
