There is a time for everything and a season for every activity. At Booktango, we had a BETA season. We tested some different things on our platform and based all of our changes on feedback we received from our most important constituents: you, our authors. Today, we’re confirming that you’ve helped us accomplish our goals. Over the last six months at Booktango we’ve rolled out some incredible features including:
- Easy-to-use Online Editor
- DIY Cover Designer
- Sales Activity and Royalty Reporting
- You Get it All Royalty Structure
Hundreds of thousands of authors have had the opportunity to check us out, saying things like:
“Booktango has made it so simple to publish an e-book and takes a genuine interest in their authors.” – Dermot
“Publishing a book was the next step in my career. It’s given me the credibility to obtain more writing jobs and possibly an agent later down the road for more books.” – Michelle
We’ve received some stellar media reviews from news outlets covering technology and publishing including: CNET, Technorati, and Publishing Perspectives.
Last week it was announced that our parent company, Author Solutions, was acquired by Penguin Group. Penguin is arguably the most innovative of the big six traditional publishers, and their purchase of our parent was validation for indie authors everywhere. In a very short time, we’ve moved to the next season of Booktango.
And it’s all thanks to you. Thank you for helping us create the world’s premier free and easy e-book publishing platform. We’re committed to continuing to bring you new products and innovative features throughout the year.
Now it’s your turn to tell us what you think. What does it mean to you to have a company like Penguin backing Booktango?
