Your Flipbook Archive Works. Ready for More Control?
Flipbooks were the right choice. They preserve your design, readers understand them, they're simple to set up.
As your needs changed—pricing constraints, more customization, better infrastructure—you started looking for alternatives.
We move your entire archive to Publi infrastructure. Same flipbooks. Better control. No surprises.
Why This Matters
Your archive represents real value. Here's how to protect it.
Your institutional memory
Every issue tells your story. Moving platforms shouldn't mean losing that.
Reader expectations
Members bookmark your links. When those break, both readers and you lose.
Search equity you've built
You've earned that search traffic over years. Moving shouldn't destroy it.
A living reference library
Your archive gets traffic. It shouldn't be stuck on legacy infrastructure.
Moving isn't abandoning what worked. It's upgrading to infrastructure that respects what you've built.
What Changes When You Migrate
Why Publishers Migrate
From Issuu:
Issuu's discovery features and social sharing work well for reaching new audiences. The tradeoff: pricing increases unpredictably, and customization options are limited. If you want predictable costs and more control over your viewer experience, migration makes sense.
From FlippingBook:
FlippingBook delivers reliable flipbook functionality—it does what it says. The tradeoff: pricing transparency and archive organization could be better. If you want clearer costs and easier ways to organize years of publications, migration makes sense.
From Joomag:
Joomag offers enterprise features for large publishers. The tradeoff: that enterprise pricing doesn't fit every budget. If you need solid flipbook hosting without enterprise complexity, migration makes sense.
From Self-Hosted:
Self-hosting gives you maximum control. The tradeoff: managing servers takes time you could spend on content. If you want the control without the maintenance, migration makes sense.
From Any Platform:
Whatever you're using works for what you needed then. If you now want one place where archives, flipbooks, and HTML content live together—without managing multiple vendors—migration consolidates everything.
What We Do
Step 1: Assessment
Tell us your setup (current platform, # of publications, file types). We review your archive and create a custom migration plan + quote.
→ Takes 1-2 days
Step 2: We Handle Migration
We download from your current platform, upload to Publi, set up redirects, optimize performance. You don't do anything on your end.
Small (1-20 pubs): 1-2 weeks | Medium (20-100): 2-4 weeks | Large (100+): 4-8 weeks
→ You stay informed, we do the work
Step 3: URL Preservation
Old links automatically forward to Publi (301 redirects). Readers don't notice the change. Search engines preserve your ranking. Every old link works permanently.
→ Your SEO is protected
Step 4: Verification
You test everything end-to-end: links, flipbooks, analytics, permissions. We fix anything until it's perfect. You approve before going live.
→ You're in control
Step 5: Go Live
Update your domain to point to Publi. Cancel old platform when ready. Your archive is now on infrastructure that scales with you.
→ Old links stay live permanently
Step 6: What's Next
Keep flipbooks, explore HTML conversion, add new features, or consolidate multiple archives. Your timeline. Your choice.
→ You decide the pace

Your Questions, Answered
Will my old links break?
No. We set up 301 redirects so old URLs work forever. Readers don't know anything changed.
How long does migration take?
1-2 weeks (small), 2-4 weeks (medium), 4-8 weeks (large), plus time for your verification.
What if something goes wrong during migration?
We test everything before going live. You verify everything works before we switch. If issues come up, we fix them.
Will I lose any data—files, metadata, analytics?
No. Everything migrates: publication files, metadata, reader data, any existing analytics.
What if I don't like Publi later?
You can export your content anytime. No penalties. You're never locked in.
Which platforms can you migrate from?
Issuu, FlippingBook, Joomag, self-hosted servers, and others. If you're unsure, ask.
Can I use Publi while still on my old platform?
Yes. You can set everything up and test it before switching your domain over. Zero downtime.
Do you preserve my branding?
Yes. Your custom domain, your colors, your logo. We don't add Publi branding to your content.
Is white-label available?
Yes, for agencies and larger contracts. Contact us for details.
What if my archive is really large (500+ publications)?
Call us. We handle it, but the timeline and cost will be custom.
