Article Matching allows you to embed contextually relevant videos from your library into your articles. By making a simple addition to the player setup, this feature provides you the following benefits:

  • An automated solution to embed contextually relevant videos from your JWP library into your articles with no additional editorial resources

  • Increased reach and monetization opportunities for your videos with minimal editorial involvement

  • Potential for increased video engagement

When a viewer visits your page, the proprietary Article Matching algorithm uses page metadata to search the metadata of your hosted or registered videos. With the results of the search, a playlist of videos that is relevant to an article is displayed and played in the HTML5 player. In the event that the search results do not return a relevant video, a <a href="/platform/docs/vdh-create-a-trending-playlist" target="_blank">trending video playlist</a> appears.
