How Embeds Add Interest to Your Content
When someone finds your website or blog, it’s your chance to convert that visitor into a paying customer. If every page on your website is filled with boring blocks of text and dry information about mortgage lending, most visitors are going to lose interest and leave without requesting a free estimate or contacting you for more information about a home loan.
That’s where embeds come in!
Adding embeddable content to your website or blog helps deliver relevant content to visitors and keep them on your page longer – increasing the chance of capturing that lead and gaining a new customer.
Just like you can add images to your page, you can also add embeds that show visitors your most recent testimonials, social media posts, video content, Pinterest pins, and even rates.
Figuring out how to embed the content you want can be tricky, especially when it comes to embedding your rates or a mortgage calculator. BankingBridge makes it easy to embed content on your website or your realtor partner’s website so you can brand your mortgage lending business and provide relevant content to potential customers on any platform.
Let’s take a look at a couple of examples.
Vimeo Embeds
Businesses embed Vimeo videos in posts and landing pages quite often. Before embedding a Vimeo video, you need to upload it. Follow these simple steps to embed a Vimeo video into your blog or website.
First, you will need to find the embed code. To get your video’s embed code, go to the video’s page and click the “Share” button. Then, click the “Show Options” link above the embed code field to reveal a preview of your embedded video and the basic customization options. From there, you can copy the embed code and paste it wherever you’d like to embed your video.

Above is an example of how embedded videos can quickly provide interesting and useful content to your page. This mortgage lending website has two embedded Vimeo videos to inform customers about the pre-approval process, but you could embed videos about any part of the loan process or even general information about your business.

How Mortgage Lenders Can Utilize Embeds from BankingBridge
As potential customers interact with your brand on your blog, website, homebuilder’s or real estate partner’s website, you can use our embeds to brand your loan officers consistently in a meaningful and compliant way.
Let’s say you’re writing a blog post about the benefits of first-time homebuyer loan programs. As you explain the benefits of these programs, you can embed a set of live rate cards directly into your blog just like the example below. These rates are pulled directly from your pricing engine and update as the market updates. No matter when the page is viewed, it will always load the most up-to-date market rates.
Here is an example of a BankingBridge embed:
These live rate cards ensure the utmost transparency and engage the customer in a unique way. You can tailor the rate cards to a specific blog post or targeted audience and they are just as easy to install as Vimeo or YouTube videos.
