Preview: Project Profile Images
The picture above is a behind-the-scenes progress shot of the next enhancement of our public website.
Since January 1, our members have added more than a thousand pictures of new homes, remodeling projects, and communities to their GuildQuality Profile Pages. During that time, we also increased the number of images that our premium members can publish for free — first from 45 to 150, and then again to 375 a few weeks ago.
Here are some typical examples of those pictures.
But despite all these beautiful pictures, I feel like we’re kind of hiding them — they don’t yet have descriptions or tags, and people must make a few clicks from our home page just to get to the first picture. That will soon end.
We’re making these images more prominent and searchable on the home page. They’ll also be tag-able and index-able. We’ve long been sharing the customer feedback histories of our members. Our project profiles enable us to share more details about their work. With this enhancement, these descriptions of their work — new homes, remodeling projects, and communities — will become that much more engaging and useful to anyone who is interested in buying, building, remodeling, renting, or maintaining a home.
P.S. We’ve been making frequent improvements to our members’ profile pages for a long time now. If you’d like more background on profile pages, check out this post from a couple years ago.
