We’re very excited to announce that BookBub is now available in the UK!
As our co-founder Josh Schanker mentioned back in May, one of our goals for 2014 has been to expand BookBub internationally, both to help authors and publishers reach readers beyond the US and to help people around the world discover new books they’ll love.
With a fast-growing ebook market and a ton of demand from both our partners and subscribers, the UK was a natural first step, so we recently began offering British readers the option to sign up to BookBub. The initial response has been very encouraging — in fact, our user base has grown to over 100,000 members in just the past few months, and we expect it to continue growing rapidly in the weeks to come.
So how can you reach this market full of keen new readers? Starting today, you’ll be able to tell us during the submission process whether your deal will also be running in the UK. If your title is selected for a feature, the total cost to run the listing will be the usual US price plus an additional 5 percent for being featured in the UK.
We can’t wait to get your books into the hands of our neighbors (or neighbours?) across the pond! We hope you’re excited about the opportunity as well, and we’d welcome your feedback on the new edition.
Cheers!
The BookBub Partners Team
