eBookHounds ~ Tuesday Tools

eBookHounds is the search and e-mail delivery service, bringing the best of free and discounted e-books, straight to the reader’s mailbox everyday.  The idea is simple, whether you want to read or present your work to others, you just have to register on their website and you’re in the loop!

For a limited time (until December 31st, 2014) you don’t have to pay a penny for their service! All you have to do is decide what genre would you like to dive in with your story/ your next reading adventure.

They have requirements to submit your e-masterpiece, so pay attention to these:

• Your work has to be available to download for free or minimum 40% discounted  cover  price.  The price is a big factor here, Bailey the butler - the dog mascot of eBookHounds, browses only through bargains.
• The book cannot be available at lower price within last 30 days.
• Your work even though not full-priced, has to be fully professional - error free and well edited, including the cover art.
• Your book shouldn’t be less than 20,000 words.
• Your book has to be a deal. No perma-free or forever 99¢.
• Your book should have good reviews (at least 10 positive reviews are required) and be on sale on one of the major online bookstores.

If you’ll meet those, quite reasonable to say, requirements, you will get some exposure on eBookHounds social media, blog, website and of course – in the e-mail, a special delivery to the readers with the desirable positions of their favorite genres.

For those who can’t keep up with their guideline conditions, don’t worry. You will get your next chance of redemption in four weeks, and if you still cannot make it, the service created a special program called Diamonds in The Ruff.

What I love about ebookhounds is that they take new released books and also their "Diamonds in the Ruff" opportunity. If you don't have a high quality book cover or if you have bad reviews, they will bring your book to people who might have an interest in your book. It is made with concern for those, who can’t afford a good publicity or expensive editing. It also comes from the point of the generous and often adventurous reader, who would like to make some discoveries on their own sometimes, instead of reading the reviews and believing someone else’s opinions.

To sum up, eBookHounds is a simple, delightfully entertaining web service (with a charming, dog-filled interface), that can easily spread the word on your good offers if you’re willing to go for it. It combines the joy of reading, with the pleasures of discovering, and everything while feeling lucky for saving some money.  If nothing more, in the end of the day, it’s a smile on your face guaranteed.
