More followers. More readers. More reviews and more books sold. We can help.

Affordable advertising for all budgets is available in our print/PDF magazine, and online.

We know that it isn't easy to be found on the internet without marketing and advertising. Sometimes sheer luck happens but most of the time, it's perserverance and constantly putting yourself out there. Affaire de Coeur knows you need to advertise to sell yourself, your books, and business. That is why we make every attempt to sell and promote our authors and advertisers.

However, hat does Affaire de Coeur Magazine do to bring readers to their website?

We advertise and promote our authors, website, and magazine. In the last several months, according to twitter, we've been reaching over 1 million readers a month.

We have had an average readership of  pages per visitor. 

We know that in order for our magazine to stay in competition with the ever increasing review web pages that are created every day, we have to advertise as well. Due to Amazon policies, we no longer post reviews on Amazon. We post announcements on Facebook,  Pinterest, Twitter, Google+ and various other networking sites that our reviewers and administrators belong to. We have advertised on Facebook, AOL, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Adwords, and other seach engines. We have advertised in the RWA Newsletter, ARRA, Blogtalk Radio, and various media outlets. We have a large following for our newsletter and send announcements out at least twice a month. 

And we aren't afraid to link our readers to other web pages. We want our readers to find our authors and advertisers.

And what has this type of marketing done for us -- for our authors and advertisers? We have steadily increased our readership on the website in the past year. By increasing our reach, hits, and readership, our authors are receiving the benefits of our increasing progress.    

We promise to continue striving to give you our best.
