When a customer arrives for the first time on your website, they are greeted with a photo or video, which you need to choose to be the best captured representation of you to attract your guests.

In the CentralApp website editor, under the Images and Visuals section, you will see both optional cover photos and cover videos. Make sure to place a high-quality photo as a cover to ensure the best possible experience.

You can also stream a video in the background instead of the cover photo on your website. These cover videos are a great way to make your website more engaging for your guests. Here’s how to do it.

  1. Publish the video you wish to use on YouTube.

  2. Copy the page URL

  3. Log in to CentralApp and go to your website editor

  4. Go to the Images and Visuals section

  5. Under "Cover Video," paste the link to your YouTube video. You can click on Preview to ensure it looks good, then save it to see the video live on your website!

Attention

The cover video will only be visible if the customer views from a desktop. If a customer accesses the website from mobile, the cover photo will be displayed instead. It is very important to have both.
