Okurları Medya Platformlarına mı Yönlendirmeli QRLA Sayfasına mı?
By H. Omer on September 10, 2017
One of the better qualities of print over digital is that it is less distractive and your digital enhancement strategy should respect that. Simply directing your readers to media platform pages from your printed media might end up distracting them... Jumping from content to content within the platform can cause your readers to be detached from your actual story/message/goal.
But we can have the best of both worlds. QRLA makes it delightfully easy to embed these media contents from worlds most popular platforms. All you need to do is to paste their link and you have the media + the rest of the blank page!
Below is a side by side comparison of different issues you might want to consider about before making your next print-with-digital project. On the left, your readers is directed to the media playing on the platform's web page, on the right the same media from the same platform but embeded inside a QRLA content page.
