Article Writing Tips | Adding Photos to your InfoBarrel Articles
I absolutely love InfoBarrel. I like the way you have complete freedom in the way you can write and format your articles, and I love the way, through Google Adsense you can track every nuance of your articles performance.
One thing that I’ve found a bit confusing about writing articles there though is the way photos are inserted into articles. There is a guide on the site, but it’s a bit difficult to find.
As you know, one of the things I adamantly recommend is making your articles pretty, making it look like you made an effort to provide quality, meaningful information to the user. It’s an easy way to build trust, and possibly get a few more clicks.
Anyway, I’m going to show you how to insert photos into your articles, and once again, the system they use is much better than anyone else’s out there.
First off, the screen I use to create content on InfoBarrel is the open ended, or blank one. I recommend you use this one too as it provides the most freedom.
So, I wrote an article now I’m ready to add some photos…
- While editing or writing your article, click on the ‘Browse’ button on top
- Find the photos you want and add them, make sure you put a photo title (Hint, use your keyword)
- After you add all your photos you can now add them into your article.
- Drag and drop each photo to where in the article you want it to be.
- Then, right click on the photo and choose ‘Modify image properties’
- Choose the alignment, left, right or whatever
- Then, here’s the nice part. On the left side choose the size. you only need to choose the width, InfoBarrel will scale the image
Here’s some screenshots that’ll clear up any confusion you may have.

And that’s it, pretty simply huh?
Here’s the finished article for your viewing pleasure..
Make your articles look pretty with some good photo formatting, and, make some more cash too!

Hi there. Figured I would try for good karma points by adding a bit of just found out info.
Another interesting IB tidbit is that unlike eHow you don’t have to jump through hoops to see the full size image. eHow makes em small and clicking on them only buffs em up about thirty percent. Makes for a tough to read screen shot. At IB you insert a pic and if someone clicks on it, voila it opens in a new tab at full size.
Heh. Had to change my blog address so I can incorporate the IB, AC (Maybe), Xomba aspects into it.
To your health and success.
