SEO Addon

The SEO Addon makes your FlipBook content discoverable on Google, Bing, and AI search engines like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity. It exposes the text inside your PDFs as crawlable HTML, adds rich structured data, and gives you per-FlipBook SEO controls.

What it adds

• Text extraction for crawlers. Every page of your PDF is extracted into HTML that search engines and AI crawlers can index. Visitors still see the interactive FlipBook; bots see the full text.
• Per-FlipBook SEO controls. Set the meta title, meta description, canonical URL, Open Graph image, and noindex flag for each FlipBook independently.
• Structured data. Outputs JSON-LD for Article, Book, and WebPage schema with the right author, publisher, and image metadata. Includes speakable properties so voice assistants can read your content.
• Sitemap and llms.txt. Adds FlipBook URLs to your XML sitemap and generates an llms.txt file so AI systems can understand your FlipBook catalog.
• Social previews. Open Graph and Twitter Card tags for every FlipBook URL, with cover image fallbacks.

Installation

1. Download the addon zip from your account at tncflipbook.com.
2. Upload via Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin.
3. Activate SEO Addon - TNC FlipBook 3D.
4. Activate your license under FlipBooks → License.

Requires the main TNC FlipBook 3D plugin.

How to use

After activation, each FlipBook edit screen has a new SEO tab. Fill in:

• Meta title — Defaults to the FlipBook title; override if you want a different snippet on Google.
• Meta description — 150 to 160 characters. Used on search results and social previews.
• Canonical URL — Useful if the same FlipBook is published on multiple URLs.
• Open Graph image — Image used when the FlipBook URL is shared on social media. Defaults to the FlipBook cover.
• noindex — Toggle on to hide a FlipBook from search engines.

Global defaults live under FlipBooks → Settings → SEO. Text extraction runs automatically when you upload a new PDF.

FAQ

Will Google actually index my FlipBook? Yes. The addon outputs the full page text as crawlable HTML on the FlipBook URL, so Google sees content beyond just the embedded viewer.

Does it work with AI search engines? Yes. The addon outputs llms.txt, speakable schema, and clean text extraction — the signals AI crawlers like GPTBot, ClaudeBot, and PerplexityBot use to cite your content.

What if my PDF is image-only (scanned)? The text extractor cannot read scanned image PDFs. Run OCR on the PDF first, then re-upload.
