Summary

Media Hosting will let you upload image files either directly from a page, or directly from an external program/script. Those images will then get shared through a human readable path on your website.

From there, you can show these images on your website, or on another website. In both cases, view statistics are gathered and shown in marketing ready statistics reports, allowing you to get a clear understanding on who is viewing those images.

Some Business Cases

Here are some of the business cases you will be able to solve, and how we would do it:

1. Add an image in a page, using the Image Hosting Block

With a single step, you will be gathering view statistics onto that page, and finally get to know where are your visitors from, when do they visit etc...

1. Upload and share an image to your website with Media Hosting
2. Add that image (linked) into an html formatted email

Every time this email will be opened, a view statistic will get recorded!

1. Create a gallery based on a file set with any gallery block
2. Create an uploader that upload directly to that fileset
3. Add an Media Hosting Upload Form
block to a page pointing to this uploader

Your users will now be able to upload directly images that will show onto that gallery!. Additionally, you can select an image to record stats onto it if you feel like it.

1. Upload and share an image to your website with Media Hosting
2. Place an img tag in your c5 addon marketplace tag pointing to the image

And voilà! You are now monitoring the activity on your marketplace page, and you will get essential visitors statistics to improve your addons activity, and its evolution. You can even evaluate the results of your modifications to your page by looking at the evolution graphs!

Actually, you can even integrate that in your building system! (see documentation for details).

Simply speaking Media Hosting will help you anywhere you need to gather statistics or upload one or multiple files. And, in case you need more? well just contact us!
