Automatic Notification

Your first promotional effort may be the act of simply joining AuthorsandExperts! In addition to new notifications, Media members can always request listings of A&E members that match their topic or category of interest.

FREE Blog!
Sign up for a Featured Listing or for a Five Star Membership, and receive a free blog to appear on your member profile page! Followers of your blog visit your home page over and over again, keeping you on the top of their list the next time they need a speaker. For authors, your free blog becomes a sales tool for your book, as well as a highly visible location to announce book tours and launch your next manuscript. Both authors and experts can also post royalty-free articles on their blogs for the media to publish, which shows the world they are the experts in their subject areas - that's better publicity than any paid-for ad, and it's free exposure!
