Digital Magazine Maker

Creating an online magazine is straightforward with Issuu's all-in-one digital publishing platform. Simply design your magazine content, then upload your static document to Issuu. From there, watch your magazine come to life and elevate it with interactive elements like Videos and Links, share it across channels with Social Posts and Articles, and even monetize it using Issuu’s Digital Sales feature.

To create a digital magazine with InDesign, create your magazine using InDesign's layout tools. Once your design is complete, export it as a PDF directly within the software using Issuu’s integration with Adobe InDesign. You can then upload your PDF to Issuu, bringing it to life with interactive elements before publishing and sharing it across channels.

Monetizing your digital magazine on Issuu can be done in several ways: a subscription model, single-issue sales, and incorporating advertisements within your pages. Additionally, Issuu's Statistics can help you understand your audience better, allowing for targeted content and ads that can increase revenue.

Experts strongly recommend the “freemium” model for those who are new to digital publishing. This means starting off free, and when a fanbase is established, setting up previews that entice a purchase. With Issuu you can choose how much of each magazine you want to display for free or which issues you'd rather be paid vs free. The customization options are endless with our Digital Sales feature.

Advertising your digital magazine effectively involves leveraging social media platforms for promotion, email marketing to reach potential readers directly, and embedding your magazine on your website for easy access. Additionally, engaging with your audience through compelling content and interactive elements can further turn readers into advocates who share your magazine.

A digital magazine spread refers to two pages viewed side-by-side in a digital format, just like in a print magazine. This layout allows for creative and cohesive design across both pages, enhancing the visual storytelling of your magazine.
