The Book Report Network

Website Design + Development

Websites are the foundation for brand-building, allowing an author to communicate easily and effectively with readers. To date the company’s AuthorsOnTheWeb division has built sites for more than 200 authors, publishers and literary agents. Our custom-designed sites meet a wide range of needs and budgets. We’ll work closely with you to create a web presence that not only showcases your work but is an effective marketing and publicity tool. Wondering what it’s like to work with us? Then see what our clients have to say!

Internet Marketing/Publicity

AuthorsOnTheWeb will build online awareness for your book with a targeted Internet Marketing/Publicity campaign. Our full program spans six weeks. We’ve already successfully marketed more than 200 titles across the web. We can do the same for you with a targeted campaign that gets the right readers talking about -- and buying -- your book. How effective are we? Again, we’ll let our clients speak for us, and do note that many of them have returned to us for more than one campaign, which is probably the best testimonial!

Research Opportunities

Whether you want to test a cover, get early reader feedback on an upcoming title or have another question or topic you want to query readers about, Research@TBRN can handle this for you. Given that our 1.6 million readers span a wide range of demographics we can quickly pull together the exact group to meet your marketing needs.

Reader Surveys

In 2009 Research@TBRN conducted in-depth surveys on two topics.

The first was Book Groups, where more than 7,700 readers weighed in on how their book groups are run, what they like to read and how they get their information. Based on these findings, ReadingGroupGuides.com is adapting a number of initiatives for 2010, including a more robust Coming Soon feature on the site so readers can make their book selections well in advance of their meetings. Highlights of the survey findings may be found here.

The second was a survey of Teenreads.com readers, where more than 4,200 readers (two-thirds of them teens) shared their feedback on what they read, how they find books and what influences them. A list of the topics covered in the survey may be found here.

To obtain a copy of Teenreads.com survey, which is available for $250, please contact Cristina Costales at Cristina@bookreporter.com.
