Xlibris Corporation -Your Online Partner in Promoting Your Self Published Book

May 20, 2010 - PRLog -- In the old days, it was hard for self published authors to promote their book. The traditional way of promoting books takes considerable amount of hard work and determination. Nowadays, instead of paying considerable amount of money for book promotions (e.g. flyers, posters or radio and television airtime), self published authors can make use of the Internet as a book marketing platform.

Xlibris Corporation, one of the leading companies in the publishing industry, offers self publishing authors a book marketing package that would provide their book access to the online world. Promoting your book on the Internet is one of the most effective book marketing methods. Its audience reach is far much longer than traditional methods. And with Xlibris’ Online Publicist Package, authors will be able to promote their book on an international level and to their specific target audience.

The Online Publicist Package features are as follows:
• Book Trailer Marketing
• Email Marketing Campaign
• Optimize Newswire Service
• Social Media Marketing Set-up
• Online Book Search

The Book Trailer Marketing is a 60-90 second specially-made video based on the book; great for catching attention. The Email Marketing Campaign is an opt-in email campaign sent to subscribed book lovers; this helps increase the books exposure, thus increasing the revenue. The Optimize Newswire is an optimized data stream sent online to various media databases all over the world. With the Social Media Marketing Setup, Xlibris will create accounts on websites that provide social networking services for the author. This will be used to connect, interact and share to their readers news and information.

This book promotion package is ideal for self published authors who have little (or some cases, none) knowledge on online book marketing basics. Other than that, the Xlibris Online Publicist Package is also much more convenient that traditional book promotion. Of which, is good news for authors who are into self publishing.  

Avail the said Internet-based marketing package and Xlibris Corporation will technically act as your online publicist. The online book marketing package helps author be more visible online to publishers, agents, book lovers and readers.
