• On Flipboard, you can follow specific topics,
like politics, travel and parenting, so you always
know what’s happening in the areas you’re
passionate about.
• It’s like a constantly updating ‘newspaper’ that
lives in your pocket.
• Never miss an article of interest that might
matter to your readers or inspire a post.

Flipboard is my happy place. It’s where I discover things I never
knew about myself (seriously, flip things you’re interested in and
then go back and take a good look at them—they’ll reveal passions
and interests you may have never even realized you had!) and can
hone in on what I really want to get serious about.”

INFLUENCE
• Create collaborative magazines with bloggers
who have relevant posts. You’ll expose your
content to their audience and vice versa.
• Leave comments on Flips and engage with
Flipboard users. It’s a great way to find new
people to follow!
• Connect with other Flipboard fans on Twitter
or other social media streams. Follow the

the Flipboard engine can help those posts
reach a larger audience. People following the
topics you mention are more likely to see your
content.

I use Flipboard to make my very busy life easier. I am dyslexic and a very busy
photographer. So I use Flipboard to showcase some of my projects and ideas and to
store ideas for future blog posts. I also use Flipboard to search for trip ideas for
photography trips for myself and for the workshops I lead all over the world for my own
companies and companies I work for. Flipboard is so simple to use and following the
right people and magazines really does save me hours of time searching the Internet.”
