Can You Add Video to Shopify Products?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 3:30 pm

Adding video to your Shopify products is a great way to engage potential customers and give them a more complete picture of what they are considering buying. It can also help increase conversion rates by providing additional information that can help sway a undecided customer. Adding video to your product pages is easy to do and only requires a few steps.

In order to add video to your Shopify product pages, you will need to first upload the video file to Shopify. This can be done by going to Settings > Files in your Shopify admin panel.

Once the video is uploaded, you will need to copy the URL of the video file. The next step is to edit the product page where you want to add the video and paste the URL into the “Video” field in the “Media” section of the page.

PRO TIP: Adding video to your Shopify products can be a great way to engage customers and provide additional information about your products. However, there are a few things to keep in mind before adding video to your products.

First, make sure that the videos you add are relevant and add value to the product page. Adding videos just for the sake of adding them will not do anything to improve the customer experience or help sell your product.

Second, keep the videos short and to the point. Customers do not want to watch long, drawn-out videos; they just want to see what they need to know about the product.

Finally, make sure that the videos you add are high quality and properly edited. Poorly made videos will reflect poorly on your brand and could actually dissuade customers from purchasing your product.

After saving the changes to your product page, the video will appear on that page when viewed on your storefront. You can also add a thumbnail image for the video, which will appear on the product page along with the video player.

To do this, simply click on the “Add image” button in the “Media” section of the product page editor and select an image file from your computer. This image will be used as the thumbnail for your video.

Adding videos to your Shopify products is a great way to engage potential customers and give them a more complete picture of what they are considering buying. Adding videos to your product pages is easy to do and only requires a few steps.
