The liveBooks editSuite

The liveBooks editSuite is a web-based content management system—use it to update images and text on your website. The editSuite was designed for the creative professional, and it utilizes drag-and-drop technology. The result is an intuitive editing environment that empowers you with complete creative control over all your content.

Easy FTP

Deliver large files to your clients online, quickly and easily. Our easy FTP solution is built into the liveBooks editSuite and requires no additional software. In addition to sending large files, you can select HTML web galleries exported from desktop software or other files, and upload them to the web for clients to view online.

Single/Bulk Image Upload

Upload single images or entire folders of images from your desktop into the editSuite.

Automatic Image Resizing

Select the “resize on upload” button to have your images automatically resized to fit your website on upload.

Drag-and-Drop Portfolio Editing

Use this favorite feature—the editSuite lightBox—to view the sequence of images in a portfolio. You can add to, edit, and re-sequence your portfolio via drag and drop in no time at all. The ease of use encourages you to fine-tune your presentations and update them often.

High-Quality Images

Engage clients with great images. We’ll show you how to prepare images to look sharp online yet download quickly. When you are in a hurry, you can upload large images and let the editSuite resize them for you.

Site Design

Choose a predesigned or fully customized website—whichever meets your needs. You can upgrade from predesigned to a fully customized site whenever you want. Our sites are designed by the award-winning liveBooks design team. With over 5,000 custom designed websites to our credit, we know how to design a site that looks great and has the functionality to drive business success.

Intuitive Navigation

Choose from dozens of website and portfolio navigation schemes. All are tried and proven to deliver an intuitive user experience.

Website Styling

Change your image transitions, loading animation, site-loading page image, and menu animation effects any time you want in the editSuite.

Multimedia Presentation

Upload videos, slideshows, PDF files, or HTML web galleries to your site any time you want.

Music

Add different music tracks to most areas of your website, such as your portfolios, Home, About, and Contact pages to drive the tone and mood of the visitor experience.

Mirror HTML Site

Our search track record speaks for itself. For example, try searching on Google for “New York Commercial Photographer.” Out of 70,300,000 listings, two liveBooks client sites appear on the first results page: Lou Manna and Christina Peters. Other winning searches include “Miami Wedding Photographer” (Tony Gajate and Alex Rodriquez), “Sports Photographer” (Brad Mangin), and “San Francisco Photojournalist” (Will Widmer and Deanne Fitzmaurice). liveBooks clients consistently get found.

Automatic Metadata Search

Upload images and check the “import embedded metadata” box in the liveBooks editSuite. It collects the titles, descriptions, keywords, as well as other metadata that you have added to your images, and serves this data to search engines via the HTML clone site. This greatly increases the amount of data search engines utilize to establish your ranking.

Search Landing Page

Easily update and edit your site title, description, and keywords and create a special search-engine landing page in the liveBooks editSuite. This search-engine landing page serves as a home page that only search engines can see, increasing the amount of content on your site that can be searched.

Google Analytics

Gauge the success of your marketing campaigns by tracking your visitor traffic, page by page, using this free site traffic analytics tool.

Downloadable PDFs

Choose to let site visitors download PDFs of your portfolios so that they have easy access to examples of your work.

Client Access

Create password-protected presentation areas for different clients and collaborators. Inside a presentation area you can post presentation-specific liveBooks portfolios, HTML web galleries exported from different workflow software, PDFs, and many other items that facilitate communication with a client before, during, or after a job.

Shopping Cart

You can choose to sell the content you display in your portfolios. The shopping cart is integrated with PayPal™ and allows you to set your own price structure by image or by portfolio.
