Goodreads is one of my favorite sites to find new authors, explore reviews of potential new reads, and promote my own novels. With a new release August 1 of Deadly Encounter, I’ve been talking to my friend Jenn dePaula at Mixtus Media about how to add new followers on Goodreads.

Jenn gave me two tips that I’d like to share with you. They are so very easy and can have a powerful impact on your marketing and promotion.

Go to your Goodreads page. Click on your photo to view  profile options.

 

Tip 1:

On the drop-down, click on friends.

In the right hand corner look for: FIND FRIENDS FROM.
Listed are: Gmail, Yahoo, Facebook, Twitter, and the Goodreads icon for friends of friends. The best option for me was Twitter. Click to bring up a window allowing Goodreads to access what you’ve chosen to use.

Tip 2:

Farther down the same page is INVITE FRIEND LINK.

Listed is: Send this link to your friends to connect with them.
Below that is your personal link. Use this link for e-mail, blog, and newsletters to encourage others to be your friend on Goodreads.




Two simple ways for readers to discover your books!
