Author Listing for Indies

Posted by tmycann on Feb 1st, 2013 in indie, writing | 2 comments

Every indie author I know is looking for ways to maximize their exposure and reinforce their legitimacy. This evening, I found a free database tool called AUTHORSdB that does exactly that.

Here’s how they describe themselves:

Here at AUTHORSdB we’ve formed the only FREE database of authors, including social media, book listings and much more, for today’s mine-field of thousands of aspiring and established writers.

ADB is a place where information is available on your favorite authors and where you can learn more about up-and-coming authors.  Readers no longer have to google from several different websites to find out more about a particular author – it’s all here.

Authors are able to find listings for new and established author services to help make their writing life just that bit easier.

And it’s all 100% FREE.

I created my listing tonight, and it couldn’t be easier: Select your username and password, verify your email address, and start filling out your text fields. Final step is to upload images to go with your listing. They even run a drawing for extra publicity–in the form of a banner on their website–if you blog about their existence.

😉

It’s worth looking into, since even though they seem very new, their past banners have been seen over 70 million times in 2012.

   Looks like a great site. On indie authors looking to reinforce their legitimacy, Google Authorship may be another tool worth looking at.
