landing page

[Tomas]

Hi,


I want to ask you , what do you think about this platform, landing page for authors.


You know, when your book is published, you can share amazon link, ibooks link, but all these platforms you have to share separately.


Do you think that is it worthy? to create one landing page where readers can decide their favorite retailer?


For example:

It certainly sounds like an idea worth trying.

On Goodreads, every reader adds their own links, they are not book-specific.

Every reader will naturally add those links that are the most use to them. Bookstores and libraries in their own country, etc. Not everybody reads ebooks or audiobooks, so those links would not be of use to them.

I agree but outside goodreads, for example instagram bio you can add only one link...

I see many people using linktr.ee for exactly this.

There is a free option, very simple without intrusive upsell, then you can subscribe for more features and customisation.

Yes linktree is alternative, but you are promoting linktree, not yourself

Yes, it's a good idea to make these promotions as simple as possible. I'm constantly battling with complicated technology. Amazon is one of the most complicated sites - named after a river in the jungle for a reason, I think, easy to get lost in it.

I have a new website - can I add it here? If so where?

I use books2read.com to pull all the retailer links for a title that I can then share with readers. It's a free service offered by D2D, but you don't need to distribute with them to use the site. You can also add your affiliate tags for the retailers.

Yes the Amazon river does have its winding life I enjoyed reading that.
