Link in bio for authors and writers
Start here: lead with your newest release and every retailer that carries it, then follow with your newsletter and any upcoming events, so a reader in a hurry still lands on the right buy link.
Why a single social bio link falls short
A reader clicks through and lands on a retailer they do not use, and you never find out you lost the sale. A signing announcement stays pinned long after the event has passed, confusing readers who show up expecting you somewhere you are not. Newsletter signup, the thing that actually builds a readership over time, sits below social links nobody scrolls to.
A starter layout
| Position | Destination | Why |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Get the new release | A retailer-choice landing page or your top-selling platform |
| 2 | All retailers | Amazon, Kobo, Barnes and Noble, and your own store if you sell direct |
| 3 | Join the newsletter | Where your next release actually gets announced first |
| 4 | Events and signings | Kept current, removed the day after they pass |
| 5 | Backlist | For a reader who just found you and wants everything else |
List only the retailers your readers use
Two or three retailers, plus a universal book link if your publisher or distributor provides one, usually covers more ground than filling every slot with a retailer nobody in your audience actually prefers.
Turning a reader into a subscriber
- A newsletter link placed right under the retailer links, while a reader is warm
- A Stripe-hosted payment link on PRO for signed copies or a companion product
- Click analytics on PRO showing which retailer readers actually prefer
- Removing event dates the day after they pass, not weeks later
Send readers to the right retailer, every time.
