Promotion on Indies Unlimited? It’s Elementary!

The answer is so obvious. It’s Indies Unlimited!

Looking for a clue as to how to get the word out about you and your work?

Indies Unlimited is dedicated to celebrating, informing, and promoting indie authors. This site provides a platform that can increase your exposure and introduce your work to new readers.

The array of free features includes announcements, video trailers, guest posts, “sneak-peek” book excerpts, Freebie Fridays, Story Time features, our weekly flash fiction competitions, and author interviews. The submissions guidelines are explained in detail on the Submissions Page. Authors who participate in these features will also have their books showcased in the IU store for one year.

We also offer a wide choice of affordable promotional packages for authors and service providers.

Good Help Can Be Hard To Find

The old adage is true. It can be hard to find good help. If you’re looking for editing, proofing, cover design, etc, it can be hard to separate the wheat from the chaff.

While lots of service providers have a great sales pitch, their quality doesn’t always match up. Recommendations from friends are sometimes helpful, but your mileage may vary.

Unfortunately, there is no substitute for doing your own homework when it comes to these things. However, as a jumping off point, here are a few folks you can check out:

The Indies Unlimited Bookstore – books and more!

The Indies Unlimited Bookstore showcases the titles of many authors featured here on the site. But, did you know if you are in the market for a new Kindle, reading light, or other accessories, you can also buy those through the bookstore? Are you in the UK? No worries! We’ve got you covered there as well with our UK Bookstore.

So check it out. Browse around and if there’s something you’d like that we don’t carry, we’re always open to your comments and questions.

All Hail the Evil Mastermind…

Shark with frikkin laser beamIt’s the Evil Mastermind’s birthday. Please join us in sending birthday wishes his way (because if he’s in a good mood, we get more gruel). In fact, if you can send those wishes on the backs of fifty dollar bills, that’d be even better.

Last October, our Evil Mastermind single-handedly launched Indies Unlimited, and within six months it became a multi-national, multi-author, nuclear-powered death-star of a blog, and a finalist in the Independent Book Blogger Awards. Not too shabby, eh?

Unlike other evil conglomerates, we pulled strings and got our Evil Mastermind what he wanted for his birthday…

So, have another scoop of gruel and a glass of Kool-Aid, and All Hail the Evil Mastermind!
