Things to Consider while Creating an Interactive e-book

Interactive e-books are a new breed of long-form content which the giant organizations and companies are using to inform, educate and entertain their target audience. These e-books are revolutionizing the way we are learning and teaching. The invention of smart handheld devices has created a new way for book publishing and has transformed our way and culture of ingesting content. They have the potential to revolutionize the content marketing game and are saving both the content creator and consumer from boredom. Now, as these interactive ebook are a hundred times better than traditional reading ways and PDF e-books, they require some special expertise to get the most out of them.

If you utilize the same process to create interactive content which you used to generate static content, then believe me you will end up creating a lame interactive e-book. There is a lot more and you need to take full advantage of this new technology and its potential of story-telling. While creating an e-book, ensure to use the full capabilities of the touch device and digital publishing platform to attract and engage user’s attention and enhance their reading and learning experience. Don’t just get sucked into the PDF mode and don’t write tons of copy. Try to create valuable interactive content which are informative, precise and useful to audience. Having an adequate quantity of valuable content is much better than having hundreds of futile pieces of content. Enable your readers to explore in whichever order and way they wish to and don’t constrict them to linear narrative.

On a closing note, make sure you provide call to action. Your interactive content should leave your audience wondering about what is the next?
