There are hundreds of different websites all over the web that help you reach out and get more reads, increase the visibility of your book to bloggers and reviewers, get authentic book reviews and finally help to find new readers interested in your genre. If your book is up on many websites and forums, you will gain access to all of the above-mentioned people that will automatically impact the number of noteworthy sales that your book will make. Here, I have compiled a list of the most popular book promotion sites visited by many based on my findings and those recommended by other authors.

Each website has its own set of requirements for a book to get accepted in the free category of book promotions

A good book cover, number of reviews on the book, type of content, length or number of words, genre to which it belongs, the specific ability to promote box sets to where else it can be promoted and a lot many different criteria to upload anything on a particular website.

I have listed some free book promotion websites here based on their rankings on the internet, trust among the masses, ease of access and the best-recommended ones by my coworkers. Consider going through the first 50 listings before a strong take in my opinion.
