What are Tag Clouds?

Tag Clouds display the most popular words and compound phrases used by clients to arrive at a particular image. The bigger the font, the more popular the word is. Clicking on one of these Tags automatically invokes another search. Trying interesting compound phrases can help designers find the images they want more quickly.

John McDonald, Vice-President Marketing, Masterfile Corporation says, "Tag Clouds can reduce the amount of time you spend thinking of keywords to filter large generic searches, like 'woman' or 'man' or 'people'. If someone else has searched for 'woman portrait eye contact' in the past, you can simply click a link to refine your search. The introduction of Tag Clouds is yet another way we are enhancing the user experience on Masterfile."
