Have You Considered Doing a Flipbook?

Posted: 17 Jul 2015 04:20 AM PDT

If you are not familiar with the term, know that a Flipbook is an HTML page that simulates the behavior of a digital magazine, where users can read the content and flip the pages as he would with a book or magazine.

Creating an online Flipbook has several applications. For instances, you might use one to showcase your products or catalog, to present your content in a more engaging form and so on.

The cool thing is that as long as you can put your content in a PDF, there are many tools out there that will do the rest. You just need to upload the PDF and they will do the rest. This site has a lot of information about converting PDF to HTML5 Flipbooks, so check it out.

Alternatively, you can go directly to online tools that offer this feature, such as FlipSnack.com.

People seem to enjoy flipping through digital pages, as demonstrated by the success of the mobile app Flipboard. This means that using digital Flipbooks on your online marketing strategy could be a smart decision, so give it some thought!

Ask Yourself: How Do Readers See Your Blog?

Posted: 16 Jul 2015 01:08 PM PDT

It’s time for day 17 in our 31 Days to Build a Better Blog challenge.

Here's a frightening reality – within just a few seconds of arriving on the blog that you pour hours and hours of time and energy into, a new reader will make snap judgements about what your blog is about and if it is worth their time to spend time on it.

First impressions are so important in real-life interactions but online it's even more so.

You might look at your blog hundreds of times a week and therefore might miss little things, or be so familiar with it you don’t know what it’s like from a new reader perspective.

It can be nerve-racking to hear feedback about your pride and joy, but it’s necessary to ensure you’re providing readers with a place they want to stay. And the only way you’ll know how they feel about it is to ask them.

Today’s challenge is to conduct a “first-time reader audit” on your blog and try to see it from their perspective, so you know what you can tweak to make their experience better.

In this episode tell you how best to do this, and a list of things you’ll need to complete the audit. I’ve also got a series of questions to ask yourself as you watch the reader go through your blog to gauge their reaction. There will be questions you can ask them to prompt their description of their experience and give you valuable insight into how your blog looks to the outside world.

The show notes also include some tools and services to make this easier for you – especially if you don’t have a newbie on hand!

Good luck – would love to hear how you go.
