What Does Embedding Mean and How Do I Do It?

Embedding a catalog on your website can make a creative impact and lead to orders. Follow these instructions to embed a catalog, flyer or even a catalog search engine into your website or blog.

Embedding is incorporating something, in this case, a catalog or search engine, into the body of a web page or another document. Our catalogs, branded or customized, give you the option to copy and paste the embed code you will find all over the ZOOMcatalog tools and paste them into your website or article.

Finding the embed code for a branded supplier catalog:

  1. Go to the catalogs on ZOOMcatalog, and find the catalog you want to embed
  2. Click on the embed code under the catalog ( </> icon )
  3. Choose what you want (a clickable thumbnail, or embed the entire catalog viewer) and select a size
  4. Copy the snippet of code
  5. Paste it into your article or web page
