Hey Friends - wanted to introduce you to goread.com - its a platform built for helping authors learn to write, network, sell their products, and make a few dollars. I got into because I am working on self publishing a few books - and as a user of this platform I have access to their bookstore where I can sell my products.

How It Works

  • Once you create an account you have access to everyone on the platform, and like any other social media outlet you follow or fan them to get access to their account/writings.
  • You are allowed to publish once a week - where users can read your content and share it. The more users share it the greater your income that month.
  • There is an online bookstore unique to its members, but each page also has its own personal bookstore where you can sell your products.

What it costs

  • Its not as awesome as steem in that its not on the blockchain.
  • It costs $40USD/month - half of which goes to the global share pool (which gets divvied out to members each month based on their performance of their page/articles)
  • You also must purchase a book from the store once a month, as well as advertisement's for your page/articles. The minimum advertisement is $20/month and the books are in the $15-$20 range.
  • In total you are looking at around $75/month

I jumped in in December because the first month is free, and made 6 'shares'. The share price was $22/per. So I am getting a check for $130. Again the first month is free if you want to check it out before putting $$ forward.

I got into this platform to be able to help myself network as I am nearing the completion of my first book. We will see how it goes.

I am using this platform primarily to have an audience of people that are going to be buying books monthly to try network into and sell my first book (which I am hoping to have done by end of February.)

I usually spend about 15-20 minutes a day networking on the site. Let me know what you think - here is the link if you want to create an account! https://www.goread.com/buzz/breakthrough/
