Fifteen Hundred Free Publications Made at Yudufreedom.com

29 April 2008 – YUDU Freedom, a service that publishes your documents online for free, has produced 1500 digital publications for publishers in more than 121 countries in its first week. The service available from www.yudu.com, which went live on the 10th April, lets anyone make professional digital publications - such as e-Books and e-Zines - from a PDF in seconds.

One in three visitors published were from the US and the UK but other countries such as Spain, Finland and Slovakia saw a very high interest. Other parts of the world publishing online include: Bulgaria, Japan, Argentina, Columbia, Hong Kong, Israel and Kazakhstan.

Technology, education and creative bloggers in these countries writing about the advantages of the service to their readers also added to the number of publishers.

Thirty-six per cent of those visiting the site went on to publish their documents with the most popular publications being e-Zines, e-Books, Corporate brochures, and newsletters. Other publication types include reports, creative writing showcases, CVs and portfolios.

YUDU Freedom converts your PDF into a Flash publication which is simple to upload to a website or blog, distribute via email or save to a digital storage device. YUDU publications are also hosted for free and publishers have the comfort of knowing that their work will be read in a professional page-turning format with all the benefits of a website, including live links.

The site also features a link to software that will convert your document into a PDF if it isn't in that format already.

SEO Friendly

Documents created with YUDU Freedom are also search engine accessible, helping individual publishers get their work noticed online. Links to external websites can also be included so that it is possible to direct traffic to a blog or website straight from the publication.

For the comfort of all publishers and readers YUDU Freedom ask that the content does not breach the copyright of others; is not offensive; and is not adult in nature.

Richard Stephenson, Chairman, YUDU Media, comments, "Online publishers are not restricted to a readership in one part of the world, but have the ability to reach anyone they want.

"YUDU Freedom can turn your PDF into something that is professional and attractive and is flexible enough to be distributed worldwide, embedded on a site or showcased offline."
