Hi, I'm new here, so thought I'd start with something helpful. I've been compiling a spreadsheet of book advertising sites. Included are their traffic estimates based on trafficestimate.com (not their own words, which I've found to be VERY unreliable), and Facebook like counts.

Most of them (at the top), have a free option. The first book in my fantasy series, I Bring the Fire, is free, but some of them accept bargain books as well...I tried to go through and label those as I came across them, but wasn't that motivated. ::)

Here is the link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AkOyQ5SflEaodEM0VGlpRm5rU2ppTWpGQkFpUkxrY1E&usp=sharing

Have fun!

...Oh, and if you can think of any more, please let me know!

Aww...thank you Wansit! I'm glad you enjoy them. Waiting to hear back on edit recs for Part IV...so nerve wracking...that I wrote a short story to distract myself, staring Sleipnir!

Endi Webb,

They make you upload copies of your books to their site. I may try them eventually and post my first book there. The thing is, they have so many books, that I think to be effective you'd have to utilize one of their advertising options, and each is about $100.

...but uploading is free.

I know Lindsay Buroker's "Emperor's Edge" is posted there. Not sure if she feels she's gotten anything out of it.

JRTomlin,

Thank you. I'd be very interested in sites I've missed.

Something I haven't included is blog tour sites. I checked a few of them (can't remember the names offhand), and some of them had 100K + visitors a month. If combined with another ten or more well visited sites a blog tour could create significant visibility. I'd be curious if people have had any luck with them.
