An update on our changes:
We’re looking at moving to Aweber to handle our email lists. As their solution offers everything we need it should be simple to use, and payment is subscriber-based not per-email resulting in a significant cost saving.
We’re now on patreon, as you might have noticed from Twitter. Sponsorships starts at $1 a month, and we’re limiting it to monthly sponsorships, not per content as we tend to create a lot of reviews. If you are interested in helping out, see here: https://www.patreon.com/bookangel.
We now have an authors’ newsletter list. This will go out irregularly, featuring new promo opportunities and site updates that users might be interested in.
And finally we’ve been experimenting with video. We have a channel of DailyMotion and courtesy of one of our members who provided their best “Marvin the Paranoid Android” voice we’ve got spoken reviews. The videos are currently private as we’ve never done this before and need to get the bugs out. If you want to see them go live, you can find us on: https://www.dailymotion.com/bookangel
There are other changes in the works, but as this is a hobby site and we’re all working, those are going to take longer (or patreon, to get some extra help involved.)
And thanks for all your reads over the year.
