Adding multimedia content to your profile is one of the key ingredients to making your Expert Profile more engaging to visitors. We recommend adding as many different kinds of media assets (like videos and photos) to your profile as possible to capture and retain the interest of visitors to your profile. Often, a well-populated profile will surface highly on search, increasing the likelihood of getting found by target audiences.
Media assets, such as videos, publications, images, documents, and audio files can all be added to expert profiles. ExpertFile has integrations with Vimeo, YouTube, Amazon and SlideShare allowing you to add content assets from these platforms in a couple clicks. You can also upload images, videos, documents and audio files straight from your desktop.
To add these content items, simply click “Add Media” from the editor.

A window will pop up with the selection of media content types you may add to the Expert Profile. From here, simply select the type of media that you would like to add.
