Innovative Self-Publishing Website Offers Authors the Chance to Advertise for Free

BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Feb. 20, 2008 -- Authors seeking to expand their reach in the book market can now access millions of Amazon.com customers when they "claim their space" through Wordclay (http://www.wordclay.com), the quick, fast and dynamic DIY publishing (http://www.wordclay.com/HowItWorks/Default.aspx) Web site.

"In today's book market, it's important to have a strong presence online," said Dave McCauley, president of Wordclay. "Authors can advertise their book for free at Amazon's Create Space and Kindle Bookstore, if they publish their book through Wordclay in the next 30 days."

Authors can maximize the sales potential of their titles with the help of one of the most trusted online retail sites in the world. After publishing through Wordclay, the Wordclay team will efficiently prepare and submit book files through Create Space for distribution through Amazon's retail channels online.

A must in the modern market, the service helps direct interested Amazon.com customers to authors' detail page through various automated discovery features such as search, browse and recommendations. Unique detail pages provide potential buyers with book descriptions, purchase options, reviews from other Amazon.com users and more.

In addition, Wordclay will also render and submit authors' books to Amazon's Kindle Bookstore. Kindle is a convenient, portable reading device for today's modern book lover that has the ability to wirelessly download books, newspapers, magazines and blogs.

"Kindle's consumers are currently limited by the range of books available at this specific format, so authors choosing to take advantage of Wordclay's offer will be getting in on the ground floor of this new and fast-growing trend in the book market," said McCauley.

Those who don't take advantage of the service for free in the next 30 days can still "claim their space" with the help of Wordclay for $50 after publishing their book at the website.
