We’d written earlier about doing book giveaways on Freado here and here.
On Freado, readers win points and use those points to win books through an online auction. Sometimes the bidding reaches a fever pitch with plenty of bids and counter bids. When a reader finally gets the book of her choice, she is much more likely to read through the book and even leave a review if the book appeals to her. The screenshot below shows the kind of enthusiastic bidding those readers indulged in for author Folami Morris’ book – The Exemeus: Hyalee’s Story.
