Holiday books! Holiday sales! Holiday anything! It’s decorative-gourd-before-holiday-glitter season already.
And if you’ve got a new release, a sale, a boxed set, a decorative gourd topiary construction that you want to show off, we can Help!
We have ad opportunities in the coming months, and we’re also taking reservations for 2021. The site survives in part because of advertisements from and for this community, so thank you in advance for your support!
Why advertise with us?
Our advertising is targeted toward a very nifty community (hi, y’all!) that’s usually actively looking to buy or research their next read. And we’re pretty easy to work with. Really! I promise!
And author Maria Vale says,
Being a newbie romance writer, I stumbled around at first. If there was a platform that accepted advertising, I tried it. Some required a lot of work tailoring and supervising because those platforms serve glass replacement businesses as well as romance novelists. I even found those aimed at readers could be difficult to use and favored in-site responses when what I wanted were sales.
The Bitches on the other hand could not be easier to use. If I need something tailored—say I’m running a month-long promotion, but there’s an embargoed sale in the middle that I also want to promote—Sarah makes it happen. The costs are small “d” democratic, meaning there’s something for everyone, including the $50/month budget ads.
Both of these are meaningless without reach, but SBTB gets 430K+ page views per month and all of them are romance readers. I have found that ads that went nowhere on other sites got legitimately large click throughs (CTRs) on Smart Bitches.
Now that’s an HEA.
Thank you, Maria!

Again, if you’ve got something you would like to promote, email me. I’m happy to work with your budget, and, as I said, you deal with me personally when you do business with the site.

Cheers!
