Generate Visual Images
Lifestyle images are a great way to tie everything together with a name and help potential buyers see the whole picture. To begin, you'll simply click on 'Premium Listings' then 'My Marketplace Listings' within your Marketplace dashboard and see the button that says 'Generate Visual Images.'
Before you begin adding visual images, it's important that all of your domains have Primary Categories selected that you want a visual image for. If a Primary Category is not selected for your domains, generic images will be used with abstract background.
You can simply complete these business categories (e.g. CBD, Real Estate, Beauty & Cosmetics) that the name most aligns with through the bulk 'Export Domains to Google Sheets' tab below the Generate Visual Images button.
Generate Lifestyle Images Button
Once your primary categories are set, you'll simply click the 'Generate Lifestyle Images' button and an email will be sent to you to verify.
You can see what a typical domain page will look like without generating the visual images.
And what it looks like once the visual images have been generated.
Our system utilizes AI as well as the Primary Category you've set to find the most relevant image for your domain.
Manually Change Images
If you have a specific vision in mind for a particular domain, you can simply edit and change the lifestyle image that is given to your domain.
Go back to your Seller Marketplace/Domains and find the domain you'd like to change the visual image on and click the button underneath 'Actions.' There, you'll see the 'Add Visual Image' button.
Once you click on 'Add Visual Image', the system will take you to a drop down menu where you can select whichever Primary Category you'd like.
Once you select a Category, the system will showcase various visual images you can choose from.
After you select an image and click 'Create New Image', your domain will now successfully show the new image selected. You can instantly see this change on your doamin's landing page.
Note that the search page and other internal pages might take several hours to date when virtual images are first applied to a portfolio or changes are made on an individual domain.
Logos For Your Domain
The logo that comes with your domain will supersede the visual image. If you do have a logo built out for a specific name, you will see it on your domain's landing page. These will not be deleted or removed.
Conclusion
Visual images are a great way to diversify your domains and add an extra layer of depth that attracts more potential buyers who are looking for a name that tells a whole story.
These visual elements are an excellent tool that you can easily utilize to help you sell more domains to buyers who need to visualize what a particular domain can be used for.
