marketing for romance writers

Marketing for Romance Writers Collaboration Day is twice a month. Initial share is the first Wednesday, and the next is the third Thursday.

EXAMPLE:

Mary leaves a URL for a Facebook post. Jane opens the link, and shares it to her own author page. Mary does the same for Jane. Sam leaves a URL for Tumblr. Chris shares it to Tumblr, and Sam does the same for Chris. All authors have increased their SEO* and their chances of being seen.

You do not have to be a member of MFRW to take part, but consider joining us. We help promote one another and share information. Our motto is Seek, Teach, Share, Learn, Succeed.

Collaboration Day Instructions

1.     Create the post you want others to share, on any social media you prefer. Use whatever wording, images, and hashtags are appropriate for your post.

2.     Make it live by sharing the post to that social media.

3.     To get the URL for the post, on most sites, click the date or time on the message to open it in its own window or tab. Copy the URL. On Tumblr, click the three dots on the upper right and choose "copy link."

4.     Return to this post and paste the URL in the comments section. It helps to leave a note regarding the type of book or event, such as "new release", "historical", "sci-fi", "LGBTQ", "contemporary", #PNR", etc. There are no restrictions on genre or heat level.

5.     On Collaboration Day, highlight the URL of any post you wish to share, and then right click to open a new tab or window.

6.     Reshare to your preference of pages or groups, etc. for your account.

PLEASE NOTE: If you think a post isn't right for your account, you are under no obligation to share it.

You can add the comment "caught up to here". No need to comment on each link.

Thank you for taking part!
