Helpful, some of the stuff I was already aware of, but it had a good range of suggestions across a range of social media.
On a silly note, I had been unsure about pictures of books with black and white covers because I read on an e reader, and I usually do cover shots, but I have confirmation that it's fine to add the colour cover in an editing studio! so NetGalley have confirmed this isn't cheating!
This was a really great resource for online book review best practices. It’s full of helpful tips that will be super useful and was presented in a concise and easy to understand way. I also really liked all of the external resources that were linked.
I absolutely love this handbook. It gives some great tips on each platform as well as articles to expand the tips. I can't wait to put this to practice!
Thank you NetGalley! Absolutely love this guidebook. Really insightful and super helpful. I will definitely be using a lot of these tips going forward.
Thank you NetGalley for providing this free social media handbook. It provided some great information I can’t wait to use. Extremely insightful as well.
Another great guidebook to help with writing reviews for books. I love these guidebooks NetGalley gives us. Definitely helpful.
This was a very. helpful tool while trying to navigate growing my social media page! I look forward to referring back to this as I keep reviewing books online and posting on my bookstagram!!
Thank you so much to We Are Bookish for this helpful guide to posting on social media. I found so many great tips that I will now start following. I appreciate the break down for each individual social media site and helpful tips for posting and reviewing. I’m so glad I downloaded this handbook and read it!
What I appreciated most about the book was the admonition that you don’t have to be everywhere all the time; that you can be very selective about which social media you participate in. I also liked the very specific tips for dealing with the different media. Overall, this is a very helpful book.
This is such a useful resource! It helped me refresh my strategy for Bookstagram and improve my reviews.
Great tips! I’ve been on bookstagram almost 2 years, but it was nice to get a “check up”.
Thank you Netgalley!
Thanks for adding a resource so that we can better review the books we are given access to. I am hoping this will elevate my reviews. I might even try out new platforms with this help.
This is a great resource for those looking to share their reviews outside of NetGalley. Filled with tips and tricks for posting on all of the different social media platforms new users and old alike should download this handbook and give it a readthrough!
This is a brilliant resource. I have reviewed a lot of books but although I am familiar with X and Goodreads I haven't ventured any further afield. This little handbook might just give me the push I need. Definitely not something to read only once. It is an excellent and friendly accessory for all NetGalley reviewers.
Generally helpful, though definitely more for beginners. Engaging and well-written, and the design was fun and accessible!
Great short read for anyone wanted to start reviewing books on social platforms. Very easy instructions, clear writing and all do's and don't s included. Should be a very first read for all Netgalley reviewers
This is a handy little guide to social book-media. Some of it was very common sense, but there were some nice bits for newbies. Highly recommend if you are trying to get a social book-media account up and going.
This book is such a great resource for those wanting to build their social media presence. It gives helpful tips and tricks for multiple platforms. As someone who is getting into social media management I plan to use this as additional resources for my studies.
Super helpful for people who are new to social media or who wants to grow their audience. As someone who just started doing a couple of different social media platforms, this handbook felt like a great foundation to secure my knowledge and experience!
I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily. The book being split up into the different forms of social media made it more practically applicable since I don’t do TikTok or my face in videos so those types of tips aren’t very necessary for me and the reviewing across platforms section was great so I can consider crossposting to Threads. The strategies such as content planning and promoting reviews were helpful for me despite the fact I’ve been a Bookstagrammer for a few years. Finally, I loved that accessibility was considered in that there was a thinking about accessibility section.
