About IAN
The Independent Author Network
Since its inception in December 2010, the Independent Author Network (IAN) has become an important resource for independent authors who count on the site for effective and affordable book promotion. More than 5,000 readers visit IAN each day to find great books by our talented authors.
IAN membership is open to all self-published print, eBook, and audiobook authors, and those published by small presses, mid-size independent publishers, and university presses.
Many members Tweet and Facebook share their IAN Member page and the pages of other members when time allows. Active members are seeing 2,000 visitors to their IAN page per month!
Members are reporting sales increases shortly after joining. IAN member pages are Search Engine Optimized and search well at Google, Yahoo, and at other search engines. Search a member and chances are the member's page shows up on page one of the search.
We promote our members 24/7 to Twitter.com. We tweet post more than 100 member pages every day to 500,000 followers. Members use the #IAN1 hashtag where we re-tweet hundreds of member tweets. Our Facebook page has more than 120,000 followers.
Those authors who would like to join are directed to fill in and submit the Join Us Form. These files will be used to build your IAN Member page. The page will be built after we receive the setup fee through Paypal. When we receive the complete form you will be contacted with a link to our Paypal page. All members will be able to have articles such as book reviews and interviews posted to The Independent Author Network Blog.
