WHAT IS BITBOOKS?
Bitbooks
is a powerful database that allows a writer to list a story, novel, poem, or other
fictional work
that they have written and link it to an excerpt on their website. As
readers browse through Bitbooks they are able to click on the link
and go directly to the excerpt. Once they read your excerpt they then can
rate it. A listing moves up in rank according to its popularity. A rating
changes each time a reader rates it. Listings that become popular
receive special recognition and a bitbooks' ribbon can be pasted on the
author's website.

WHY LIST YOUR FICTION ON BITBOOKS
Bitbooks receives nearly 2
million hits per year so a significant amount of traffic will be directed
to each member's site. Many members report that Bitbooks is responsible
for most of the traffic that they get on their website. The biggest
problem most writers have is a lack of an audience to read their work.
Bitbooks helps provide an audience and also, though its rating system,
provides input to authors on the quality of their work.
