Adding music, video and photos to your site

Make your site come alive by adding sound, videos and moving pictures. It's as easy as 1-2-3!


When Al Gore invented the Internet, he couldn't have had any idea how much the web would change in such a short period of time. Nowadays, the web is alive with sound and video, and adding multimedia content to a Generator site is simple.

And the reason it's simple is because our system was designed to not see any difference between one kind of file and another. Because of our relationship with Amazon — which stores all of our clients' site data — a photo is treated the same as an mp3. A pdf is the same as a video. All you do is upload your file to your database through our simple file browsing interface, and click on the appropriate toolbar button to add it to your page.

Songs


Our simple but elegant audio browser gives you the power of iTunes at your fingertips. All you have to do is upload your song to your database, click on the audio browser button in the toolbar, and browse to the song you just uploaded. In a matter of seconds, a sleek and simple song player automatically appears on your page, which gives the customer the ability to pause, stop and play the song, as well as control the volume.

Videos

When it comes to video, no one does it better than YouTube. That's why we make it easy to copy and paste YouTube embed code directly into any web page, bring the power of video to your site. And since the videos are being hosted off-site, you don't have to use your site's storage to hold huge video files — and, you never have to find out how to encode a video to get it onto the web.

Photo galleries


Site research proves that photos are the single biggest traffic driver on the web, and that's why we've built a super-cool photo gallery that you can add to any page at your site. Creating a new gallery is as simple as browsing to your file database, clicking on photo names, and pressing Save. In seconds, your new photo gallery is live on the web, available for your site visitors to see. It's so easy anyone can do it. Check out the example below:
