In order to differentiate yourself and create engagement, it is important to publish impacting photos on your social networks.
No matter if you are a brand or an individual, it is crucial to adapt your photo’s dimensions to each platform’s standards.

As a Social Media Manager or Community Manager, Facebook is probably your main communication tool.
The task of animating it is yours, but have you ever taken a look back on everything you’ve accomplished? Do you have a written record of all the hard work generated throughout the year, the number of publications, reactions, shares, comments? Do you possess a decision support tool, proof of the impact of your work?
BlookUp has the ideal solution for you: The book of your Facebook page!
You embody the image of your business by posting diverse and engaging content, organizing events, contests, and responding to comments with strong punchlines and gifs.
This daily work is ceaseless and constantly renewing itself, and as each publication is chasing another, it is sometimes difficult to keep track of each action conducted online.
The Facebook book is the paper support that will allow you to:
By immortalizing the engagement of your fans, your best events or marketing operations and have a physical copy of your production, you will also surprise your employees, customers or partners.
There’s nothing like a real paper book to prove that Community Managers are not just lounging on Facebook all day long! 😉
The Facebook Fan page book can even become an internal communication journal for your company!
We take care of everything, you will receive your books directly at home or at work! Just contact our sales department by email at subscription@blookup.com!
We propose tailor-made subscriptions.
BlookUp also prints your Instagram and Twitter books, and of course the books of your company blogs, so take the opportunity to impress your colleagues today!
At the end of 2016, we gave you informations about BlookUp‘s blogging and social networking activities. Today, we – already- have to update you on the situation!
In the first place (yes, we start the article by the last element of our title, like some kind of blog punks), we would like to thank you from the bottom of our heart for your growing support, your shares, your commitment…
In 2017, significant subscriptions goals have been reached for all our communication platforms, and that is obviously thanks to you!
GOAL REACHED: 5,000 SUBSCRIBERS
The blog is still there, in French (here) and in English (here. Like, no, really, no need to click, you’re already there 😉 ), but as some have noticed, our publication rhythm has kind of declined; No more publications on Tuesdays and Fridays but don’t panic, we explain why!
The first reason to this is simply our desire to propose a unique rendez-vous, every Wednesday, in order to make every article more like a weekly celebrity coming to sign autographs at a given time. Punctuality is key!
The second reason is also quite simple, and that’s…
Tumblr is the latest active network of BlookUp. This microblogging platform will be ideal to share with you the daily life of our startup!
Our Tumblr will be more like a Facebook page, a Twitter or an Instagram account, with a freer and more casual tone. The publications are to be short but more numerous, and this is why WordPress articles, longer and therefore more demanding in terms of research and writing, will be posted once a week to ensure their quality!
That being said, if you have a Tumblr account (or if you are just curious!), Subscribe to this new blog and enter the daily BlookUp life, joys, pains, environment, team… And much more!
REACHED GOAL: 3,500 SUSCRIBERS |
REACHED GOAL: 1,200 FOLLOWERS |
REACHED GOAL: 1,200 SUSCRIBERS |
(Click on the images to access the corresponding social network!)
There are also some changes on the social networks side, which regularly relay each publication from the WordPress blog (and soon Tumblr), and had a fairly fixed number of publications per day… Now we blow up the locks, get free, and we post, we share, we react live!
We are as well increasing the emphasis on mages… For the pure pleasure of the eyes!

Are you part of the 250 million people who own a blog all around the world? Whether you blog for fun or make a living out of it, BlookUp gives you the opportunity to turn your blog into an actual paper book.
Make your own blook and join the 12 000 other bloggers who did the same before you!
Printing your blog? But…why? There are a lot of reasons why you should print your blog, here are the main ones:
As seen in the news recently, nobody’s safe from a bug that would ultimately delete our blogs. Unfortunately, we cannot predict what will become of our blogs in the next 5, 10 or 20 years. By then, it is likely that a lot of data will disappear.
There is something exhilarating in holding the result of countless hours of writing, you should try! Once you will receive your blook, you will experience the feeling of flipping through the pages full of articles and pictures, feel the authenticity of the paper under your fingertips and you will ask yourself: “How come I didn’t make my blook earlier?”.
Printing a blog allows its author to experience it on another perspective. Very few are those who take the time to dive into their archives full of old pictures, stories and memories. You will realize what a year, or even a lifetime worth of writing looks like.
With a book, you see your content in a new light, rediscover your articles and relive your best moments in pictures!
You add something truly unique to your work when you make a book, something that makes you proud and arouses admiration of others. Because making the book of your blog is a unique experience, after all, you are making YOUR book. Making your blook is a creative process, the bloggers who decide to make theirs customize the cover and page layout thus bringing to life what used to be a digital object and turning it into a book everyone can share and enjoy. The result of this process is truly priceless: Because blogs are often personal, they are about families and friends, they require a lot of time and dedication to put into them, whether it be for the writing, posting on social media, or even interact with the readers.
The more the authors put time into their blog, the more they want to keep a written record of it. In a world where everything tends to be over-digitized and the content ephemeral, there is something truly special and almost relieving in putting aside the internet for a while and immortalizing your blog in the form of a book.
There is nothing like a book to read through your blog posts again and again, sharing anecdotes and remembering some events, all while being comfortably seated on your couch! Say what you want about tablets, kindles and laptops, but nothing matches the authentic experience of a book…plus it is waaay more convivial!
Share your blook or offer a copy to your relatives and your friends and see how they experience your blog page after page. Everything is real and authentic, they will be holding in their bare hands the result of your work and it is more pleasant than having to read the articles on a computer screen. Also, remember that not everyone in your family (take your parents or grand parents as an example) is comfortable with using devices like a tablet or a laptop, and for them what you call “blogging” is something they might not understand. Luckily for them, BlookUp has THE solution: offering them a printed copy of your blog!
Your book can have a real monetary value if the content you wrote interests other people. BlookUp, gives you the possibility to make your blook “public”, this way it will appear on the Blookshop. You can sell it at the price you want and tell you friend to check it out on BlookUp and order it online! Who knows, this might be the beginning of your career as a writer that just started!
With BlookUp you can make all kinds of books. Here are some tips to help you getting started:
First you have to create your blook by choosing among all the platform the one you want to import your blog from and selecting your favorite articles, or by defining a time period (“Articles from 2016…” or a theme. You can also choose to only keep the pictures and make an album or remove all of them. Here are all the different formats and platforms you can choose from:
You can order a single book if you want to! You can print as many books as you want and benefit from an excellent manufacturing quality thanks to on-demand digital printing.
If you do not own a blog you can always print a book out of your Facebook page or Instagram. Nowadays people like to share everything they do on social media. And while we tend to create more and more content online, BlookUp takes it the other way around by Immortalizing your digital content in form of paper books.
The Facebook book is available in an exclusive format (20×26 cm) and lets you choose between 2 different layouts (2 or 3 columns). You can choose a time period over which you want to import your content from. BlookUp automatically imports all the content you published on your Facebook page automatiquement tout le contenu publié sur votre compte Facebook (statuses, photos videos, places you visited, comments…) then you can choose the types of content you want to appear on your blook as well as the number of comments.
That’s exactly the same with Instagram! You can choose the pictures you want to keep along with the time period. Your book will be printed in a 15×15 cm format.
You can start by importing your blog (Go ahead, you can do that for free!) by clicking on the platform you want to import content from. Then all you have to do is to register and go with the flow!
As we previously mentioned, you can customize your blook in a lot of different ways (Types of content, font, page layout, cover, etc…) Once you are happy with your book, you can order it and you will receive it within 15 business days.
“You spend hours writing articles for your blog, taking pictures and editing them. But even though it is a thing in the digital world, you still can’t touch it. It’s not like a good old book you’d be reading at the parc. Having your blog on a book format adds another dimension to this little place of the internet that we love and take care of. I also think that it is a very cute and friendly way of sharing what we do with people who are not very familiar with web-related stuff. Believe it or not, but there are still quite a lot of people that are not so interested in the internet.”
“Our blog contains all the 367 articles about the 19 countries we visited and more than five times as many pictures we wanted to keep in the form of a series of books dedicated to this dream come true. It was very important for us to keep a written record of our memories abroad, that all our writings and pictures will not be forever imprisoned behind a computer screen or lost somewhere inside a folder. These books allow us to dive into these wonderful memories at any moment and there is nothing that can match this feeling!”
“It is an interesting project with a lot of advantages. Whoever is looking for a job and wants to keep a tangible record of his/her blog (assuming that the said blog is relevant for the job), easily readable and enhanced by the paper format and/or with exclusive content, will certainly be intrigued. Blookup will prove interesting to professional bloggers, fashion bloggers and photographers who are very focused on design and visuals. It is also a good idea to offer it a gift. As for the commercial aspect of the books, that remains to be seen…”
“Blookup is a great way of keeping track and promoting your blog. It can be offered to your parents or grand parents and can also be an excellent memory for wedding blogs.”
