We've updated and improved our system!

Geo Location Targeting

  • Geo Location refers to the physical location of the visitor based on their IP Address. With Geo Location Campaigns, you can serve different publications to different geographically located visitors. As an example, you can serve publication “a” to visitors in New York and publication “b” to visitors in Los Angeles. For each campaign, you will be given one unique link that, once clicked on, will do all the work of figuring out your visitors’ location and serve up the correct content. This means you can market one link, but serve up hundreds of different publications across the globe based on your campaign settings.

Custom Domains and Link URLS

  • Add your own CUSTOM Domain

Mask any Mygazines references and build your branding by choosing your own domain!  All link references, email marketing and system notifications will reflect your domain which you can set at the title level.  You'll also get a generic CDN URL(content delivery network) as well if you choose to add your own custom domain to fully mask any data transfer from mygazines in your browser. This feature comes at an additional cost so please contact us for pricing.

eg.  If your website is www. yourdomain. com, you could use a domain such as digital. yourdomain. com through which all links and  communications will reflect.  This is a great way to connect your digital publications to your branding, completely removing Mygazines references from your reader's experience.

  • Use the generic domain

If you don't need a custom domain but still would like to mask any reference to Mygazines, you can choose a generic domain at the title level. Every customer now has the ability to choose the generic domain http://www.epageflip.net. All link references, email marketing and system notifications will then reflect this generic domain and not www.mygazines.com

eg.  Instead of www. mygazines. com/issue/XXXXX, you can choose your links to show www. epageflip. net/issue/XXXXX

If you'd like to add another domain such as your own(see below), please contact us for pricing. 

 

Embed a Bookshelf

  • Give visitors to your website a quick and easy way to access all issues under one of your titles by embedding a bookshelf in your website.  Just copy a small piece of code from the Mygazines system, paste it in your web page and all issues under your chosen title will be accessible from the bookshelf.  Choose the size and one of three styles to get the look and feel you want.

 

Coming soon!

  • Link Target Behavior

Coming very soon to the Mygazines system will be the ability to choose how a link works when clicked in the reader. 

You will be able to choose from 4 link behaviors for external web links to better control your reader's experience.

  1. Open up the link target in a new page or tab (default)
  2. Open up the link target in the same window
  3. Open up the link target in a pop up iFrame
  4. Open up the link target in the side widget area
