Free ISSUU Alternative

One of the best free alternatives to the portfolio publishing website "ISSUU" is "YUMPU". I switched from Issuu to Yumpu when I found that Issuu no longer supported the flipbook view of the Magazines/Portfolios. It's just a personal preference to be able to view the published portfolio similar to a flip book or magazine format.

The best thing I like in Yumpu is that you can even add videos to your portfolios to be viewed or linked to an external source. To do this

  1. Hover over your name on any page and go to "My Magazines" which opens the following page

    My Magazine
  2. Click on edit pages, which opens the "hotspot editor" of Yumpu 
  3. In the hotspot editor, to your left, you can find various options to 
    1. Create internal or external web links,
    2. Link to a specific page in a document,
    3. Embed youtube, Vimeo or Yumpu video,
    4. Embed Audio File,
    5. Add a slide show area.
