Why Embed PDFs with GoHighLevel?

Before we dive into the steps of embedding PDFs, let's look at some of the benefits of using Go High Level to do this:

1. Improved User Experience

Embedding a PDF directly on your High Level website allows visitors to view or download content without navigating away from your site. This seamless experience keeps users engaged and reduces bounce rates.

2. Content Presentation

PDFs retain their format across devices, ensuring that your audience receives the content exactly as intended, whether it’s a business brochure, report, or any other document.

3. Lead Generation

Embedding PDFs as gated content (requiring users to provide an email before downloading) allows businesses to capture valuable leads. With HighLevel's integration capabilities, you can easily collect user data and follow up through automated workflows.

4. Customizable Integration

With Go High Level, embedding PDFs isn’t just about providing a file link. You can customize how the PDF appears on your website and decide if users can view it in-browser or download it directly.

Now that we’ve covered the benefits, let’s get into the practical steps of embedding a PDF on your High Level website.

Step-by-Step Guide to Embedding a PDF with High Level

◉ Step 1: Prepare Your PDF File

The first thing you need to do is prepare the PDF file you want to embed. Ensure that:

• The PDF is optimized for web usage. Compress large files to ensure quick loading times.
• The content is formatted correctly for digital viewing.
• The file is appropriately named so that users can easily identify what the document contains when they download it.

Once you have your PDF ready, save it on your computer in an accessible location.

◉ Step 2: Log In to Your Go High Level Account

Log in to your Go High Level account. If you're new to the platform, you can sign up for a 30-day free trial here and explore its capabilities.

Step 3: Access the Website or Funnel Editor

After logging in, follow these steps:

1. On the left-hand menu, click on Funnels & Websites.
2. Select either Websites or Funnels, depending on where you want to embed your PDF file.
3. If you already have a website or funnel, click on Edit next to the one you want to update. If not, you can create a new website or funnel by selecting Create New Website or Create New Funnel.

◉ Step 4: Upload Your PDF File

Once you’re in the website or funnel editor, here’s how you can upload the PDF:

1. Click on the section where you want to embed the PDF. This could be in a content area, a section with a download button, or a text link.
2. Add a Button or Text element from the left-hand menu. If you choose a button, it will act as a call-to-action (CTA) for users to view or download the PDF. If you prefer text, write something like “Download our free report” or “View the full guide here.”
3. After adding your button or text, click on the element and select the Link option from the toolbar.
4. From the link options, choose File and click Upload. Select the PDF from your computer and upload it to your Go High Level account.
5. Once uploaded, the PDF file will be available in your media library. Select it, and your button or link will be connected to the PDF file.

◉ Step 5: Embed the PDF for In-Browser Viewing

If you want users to view the PDF directly in their browser (instead of downloading it immediately), follow these steps:

1. After linking the PDF file to a button or text, change the link settings to Open in New Window. This allows users to view the PDF without navigating away from your website.
2. Alternatively, you can use an iframe code to embed the PDF directly on the webpage:
   • In the website editor, select the Custom HTML/Code element from the left-hand menu.
   • Insert an iframe code like this:
     html

     Copy code

     <iframe src="https://your-pdf-link-here" width="100%" height="600px"></iframe>
   • Replace your-pdf-link-here with the actual link to your PDF (available after you upload the PDF to Go High Level).

This method embeds the PDF directly into the page, allowing users to scroll through the document without downloading it.

◉ Step 6: Publish the Changes

After you’ve embedded the PDF or linked it to a button/text, click Save or Publish in the top right corner of the editor. This ensures your changes are applied and that users can access the embedded PDF on your website or funnel.

◉ Step 7: Test the PDF Embedding

Once your site or funnel is published, visit the page and click the button or link to test the PDF functionality. Ensure that:

• The PDF opens in a new tab if you opted for the in-browser view.
• The file downloads correctly if you chose to offer it as a direct download.

Testing is crucial to ensure your users have a smooth experience and can access your resources without issues.

◉ Step 8: Automate Lead Generation with PDF Embedding

If you’re using the PDF as a lead magnet, here’s how to further automate the process with Go High Level:

1. Add a Form or Opt-in Page: Before users can access the PDF, add a form that collects their email address. This turns the PDF into gated content.
2. Create an Automated Workflow: Use Go High Level’s automation features to send follow-up emails to those who downloaded the PDF, nurturing the leads and providing more value.
3. Monitor Engagement: Track how many users download the PDF, and adjust your marketing efforts based on engagement data collected through Go High Level.
