The IdeaMarketers bidding system allows those who submit books to receive enhanced promotion. You can bid for book placement on our home page and on top positions on our category channels.
Here's How It Works
Books are displayed on the site sorted by
a) Bid amount - from greatest to least
b) Date
The home page features the top 35 bidders
Choosing a Channel Category
When you submit a book, you get to select a category. That category determines your channel. For example any category with LIFE in front of it goes in the Lifestyle/Personal Development Channel. Anything with HOME in front of it goes in the Home/Family/Parenting Channel.
You can edit this category later - even after your bid is placed. We do monitor these, so please do not place your book in a category that it doesn't relate to just to get first page positioning. We'll reroute your book to the proper category and this could affect your positioning.
BONUS EXPOSURE!
How Long Bids for Promotion Last
All bids last for 7 days. If you bid again on a book you have already bid on before the 7 days is up, any time remaining is erased and the bid starts over for another 7 days. For example, if you bid $30 for a spot on September 15th and come back on the 19th and bid $50, your bid in the system will be $50 and the effective start date of your bid will be the 19th.
How to Bid
Log into your writer account, then scroll down to the Promote Your Books area. Click on the Books link and there will be a list of your books in the system (if you've added any). By each book title will be a Bid link. If you don't have any books in the system, use the Add link to add some and then place your bid.
You'll be shown current bids for top positions for each category so you have an idea of what the category positions are going for so you can place an appropriate bid.
You'll enter your bid amount and submit. You'll then be given a bid confirmation number which you should write down. Then click the Paypal link and pay for your bid. After your bid is successfully paid for, you'll be taken to a page where you can put in your unique confirmation number to activate your placement in the system. If you go to the confirmation page from Paypal and it makes you log in, then you've timed out for some reason. Make a note of the confirmation page (bookmark it) and then Log in and then go to the confirmation link again.
Q&A
Q. Can I still post books for free?
A. Of course you can still post books for free as you always have! People will still be able to search the system and find them. The bidding system gives those who want prominent positioning exposure on our popular home and channel pages. Our site receives over 1.3 million page views/month, so it's a great boon to those who have back-end products to sell or who are trying to increase their search engine positioning through prominent placement on our popular site.
Q. I placed my bid and paid through Paypal, but my bid isn't there.
This usually happens when, for whatever reason, Paypal doesn't send you to our confirmation page to enter your confirmation number. Please give us 2-3 business hours to complete this process and then if your bid still isn't activated, you may email us at webmaster@ideamarkekters.com .
Current Bids
Here are the current bids in the system. Notice that you can only bid in whole dollar amounts! Please be
aware that these bids are subject to change. This is a live bidding system. We can't
guarantee that by the time you place your bid that these bids won't have changed.
