Privacy settings: Unlisted
Our Who can see my flipbooks? article explains how to change your privacy settings and what options are available.
This article focuses on the Unlisted privacy setting. If you use the Unlisted mode (previously we used Shareable Link), then you can share your flipbooks with your audience by sending them the link. The difference with the Public mode is that unlisted books don't show up in Google or other search engines. Use this if:
- Your content isn't highly confidential, but there simply is no need for anyone except the recipient(s) to find it.
- Your content expires quickly (e.g., an advertising brochure that is only valid for 2 weeks), or changes regularly, and search engines may not keep up.
When you use this option, search engines will not index your flipbooks. We add a noindex tag to your flipbooks to stop search engines from indexing them, and we also remove all the SEO texts. Those are invisible to human readers but used by search engines. Without them, there isn't anything to index at all.
