Increase Your Chances of Getting ARCs
- Publishers, especially the big 5, love readers who have a following in the literary community. One way to build a following is by starting a book blog. We have interviewed some prominent book bloggers on how to start a book blog, so you can learn from the best.
- You don't need to be book blogging to get review copies of books. A consistent track record of writing book reviews on sites like Amazon and Goodreads goes a long way on its own. We have built a free tool called ReaderRank which analyzes your past reviews and social reach and builds a reviewer profile for you. You can then share this as part of your ARC requests.
- If you are new to book reviewing or just want a faster and simpler way to get books, we hear you! We encourage you to read books from our ARC book catalog. It is free :)
