2. Add Web and Shopping Links

Incorporating Links into your Adobe Express template turned flipbook is a surefire way to drive traffic and boost conversions.

3. Embed Videos

Direct your reader's attention with eye-catching Videos that start playing as the page turns (or by choice!). All you need to do is insert a YouTube or Vimeo link. This keeps your audience immersed and engaged with every word and page of your content instead of sending them to an external third-party site to get distracted.
