Tags are a great way to highlight property details for marketing a property or during construction or renovation.1 Tags provide additional information within the virtual tour. This drives engagement and helps communicate critical property information. Limited only by your imagination, we can create Tag links to videos, graphics, hyperlink to a web page, link to another pano within the tour or add custom text and lists. Tags can lend a whole new dimension to your marketing or project management!
Share Different Types of Information
- Videos – Attach a video to a location to make the tour more engaging and create a more guided experience.2
- Images – Add an image to show features in greater detail.
- Hyperlink – Link to website showing detailed appliance/feature info or PDF manual.
- Titles and text – Add a simple title to highlight a key feature or add text explanations. This adds context to the space.
- Pano link – Link to any location in the tour. Enhance navigation by connecting spaces as you see fit.
- Lists – Create an ordered or unordered list.
You can also combine multiple types of information into one Tag. Add a description to a video or a title to an image for example. By using Tags to weave property information into a tour you can make the experience more rewarding and immersive.
The Viewer Has Three Ways of Navigating the Tags Within the Tour

This allows immediate access to all the extra information that Tags bring as well as a more guided experience.
