SAN FRANCISCO – October 14, 2021 – BingeBooks, the book discovery site for fiction, today launched a new full-featured audiobooks section that includes tens of thousands of titles and audio samples and audiobooks from more than 13,000 narrators.
The authors who run bingebooks.com announced they are inviting narrators to create or claim profile pages that include titles they’ve narrated across multiple fiction genres. On each profile page, readers can listen to five-minute samples, read their bios, leave reviews and messages, follow narrators and browse each narrator’s audiobooks organized by genre.
“With the addition of narrators, BingeBooks has met another milestone in our goal to become the leading online community for fiction lovers,” said Alessandra Torre, CEO of BingeBooks and a bestselling romance and suspense author. “Our readers will enjoy another touchpoint with the books they love and discover by connecting with narrators onsite. Narrators can freely use our platform to build their brand and audience.”
Benefits to narrators who register on BingeBooks include the following:
- Complimentary profile pages showcasing audiobooks in specific genres, narrator bios, profile photos and custom cover image
- Automatic uploading of audiobook listings within a day, including book description, audiobook cover and retail links
- Interaction with readers on the BingeBooks site
- Free promotional opportunities such as inclusion in BingeBooks’ genre newsletters, collaborating with authors or fellow narrators to host book clubs or reader groups, and creating visually appealing book/audiobook lists that can be shared with readers.
