I’ve just come across a website that some fellow authors may find a useful addition to their marketing efforts.
viewBook.at is not just any link shortening site; it gives you a shortened link to your Kindle book, and when readers click on it, they will be directed to the Amazon store specific to their location — that means that if you live in Germany, clicking on the link will take you to the purchase page for your book on Amazon.de!
Here’s a link to Oracle as an example: http://viewbook.at/B008OA0SD2
How cool is that? One link for all Amazon territories, for all your international readers!
And that’s not all! You can also submit a request to get a personalised link to your book, e.g. http://viewbook.at/Oracle — I’ve submitted a request as a trial, but I do believe that the service is free!
Plus, you can get a similar link for your Amazon author page at the related site viewAuthor.at!
I will be using this to link to any Kindle titles I mention in posts from now on.
Have YOU checked out viewBook.at? What do you think of it? Would it be something you’d like to use?
