Digital Magazine 

Need to create a digital magazine for your customers quickly and effortlessly? All you need is a PDF version of your magazine which, after being uploaded to Paperturn’s online magazine maker, will be quickly transformed into a digital one. No programming necessary. Within minutes of uploading your PDF file, you’ll be left with an attractive, user-friendly and professional digital magazine that you can instantly share with all your customers!

A digital magazine, also known as an e-magazine, is a format that allows for a unique interactive experience. Since your magazine will be hosted online, you can choose to add links, images, videos, GIFs and so many more digital features - directly within the pages of your e-magazine.  This is a surefire way to WOW your readers and keep them engaged.

Digital Magazines vs. Print Magazines

While there are advantages and disadvantages of both print and digital formats, there are clear and distinct differences that should be considered when deciding which is the best for you and your company.

Ease of Distribution

One very clear factor is that distribution is much easier with digital magazines - all you need to do is share the link of your publication, and in an instant, all your customers will have access (distribute to as many people as you’d like - at no extra cost). 

This differs greatly from the distribution of print magazines, which requires more effort and resources. Not to mention the extra cost - the more magazines you want to distribute, the higher the price! 

Eco-Friendliness

Another great benefit of using digital magazines instead of print is the fact that digital magazines are hosted online, meaning that no paper is used, or goes to waste. Digital is therefore an extremely sustainable option. Nowadays, it’s important that we try to ensure that we use as little paper as possible, and print magazines, unfortunately, don't fit this quota. 

Endless Interactive Features

Although print magazines have their perks, they don’t offer half as much as digital magazines do in terms of interactivity. An online magazine can incorporate a whole host of online features  and this modern form of communication is becoming more and more sought after.
