New Feature – Auto Insertion of Images/Videos for Posts


For several months now, we’ve given users the option of uploading images and/or videos to their posts to help provide a little more realism to the content.  While many of you are taking advantage of this, the majority of posts added still do not contain any kind of media.

Over the last few weeks we’ve been testing a new auto insertion feature that allows us to insert keyword relevant media into posts at the time of distribution.  Now like everything else we do the process will be fairly random and we expect to add media to roughly 30% of all posts that don’t already have an image or video included.

You can choose to opt out of this auto media insertion feature by editing your domain and unchecking the field for Add Media to Posts? (see screenshot to the left).  By default this feature will be enabled for all domains.

Notes:

1) Your anchor text will be used to find relevant images and videos.

2) We’ll be inserting either an image or a video but not both.

3) We cannot guarantee that the selected media will always be fully relevant to your anchor text.

4) You will not be allowed to edit posts after distribution, so you cannot swap images or videos after the fact.  If you want more control over the media inserted, please insert your own when adding posts.

  • That’s great! Thanks for making my life easier.

  • Great new feature. As a long-time customer, I’ve been waiting for this. But the best feature you could provide would be more high-PR sites. I’ve seen far too many PR1s lately.

  • It feels nice to see the dedication BMR team is putting in improving the quality of a already great network.

    You rock Guys

  • Can you set the alt tag of the image to the keyword used in the article – that would be a big bonus.

  • Will the new system add image/video for posts that have one manually inserted? Or will it be smart enough to skip over ones that already have media?

  • If the post already has an image and/or video nothing extra will be inserted.

  • Brilliant – your dedication to providing a top notch service is well appreciated.

  • Sounds like a great idea. Makes the posts more sticky and keeps visitors on the page longer. Great addition, especially for shorter posts.

  • Where do you get the images from? Is there gonna be any copyright issue for you?

  • This is great–but is there any way to simply add media to have an option to add or not add media to our posts? I would love it if closer to 50 % automatically had media inserted. Thanks!

  • Good work John, this is an excellent feature that i’ve been hoping for for a long time now.

  • Sounds pretty dang good to me! Nice addition.

  • What is the source of the images and videos you are going to put in each post? Is it from google image search only?

  • Yes, you’ve had this option for a while now. You can embed your own images and youtube videos. See the related buttons in the text editor toolbar.

  • I am not good in inserting video..i guess i need this tool.
