We have a completely new look at RAR. I finally got a template that allows me to have more control over content placement.

I have added Facebook Like buttons and Twitter buttons so that people can "like" and "tweet" their favorite reviews.

Ads and various links now have an Amazon Pop-up to allow readers to get a little more information about the books.

The biggest addition is a Forum Page: http://redadeptreviews.com/?page_id=5342

I added the forum in response to comments I have seen here and on "that other forum." It is not meant to take the place of either, but instead to offer another way to get your books seen.

Hopefully, the topics I have provided there speak for themselves. More topics will be added later, after discussions with my staff.

I invite you all to stop by, check it out, and post.

I will be announcing it to the public via blog post when we have a few more posts by authors. (No sense inviting readers until there is something to see. )

I like the new look! The forum idea is a good one too. Do you have an idea in mind to draw readers who are specifically interested in reviewing?

PS - Is there a way to get every post not to center on the page? I keep having Poetry 101 flashbacks

 

[Katie Salidas]

Ooh, looks nice!! Congrats on the pretty update to the site!

I'm looking into some ways to draw readers. I will definitely accept suggestions.

Thanks for pointing out the centering. I believe I have corrected the issue.

My eyes thank you! I'll think about the first point and see if anything comes to mind.

Oh I must give credit where credit is due!

B. Tackitt helped me with the color scheme and some other issues!

Thanks!

I'm also taking suggestions on any new topics to add.

Everyone should keep in mind that it is meant to be a very directed forum, not really a place to just chat. (We have KB for that. )

If you want to draw readers I think you need to SG and Phil Chen for those pictures...

Me Likey and I don't say that out of my fear for Guido.

Now excuse me while I go to make sure my door is locked.

Signed up and posted. Thanks for giving us another option for putting our work in front of readers. Good luck with it.

I like it, Lynn - following on Twitter & FB, and subscribed. Good job!

Once there's a good mix of readers and writers interacting, I think it will be a beneficial place. No, there's no place like the Bazaar to out and out self promo, but there is a place for you to list giveaways & freebies, as well as CHAT with readers, and even places for finding or offering to be.. beta readers.

I like it a lot. It looks crisper.
