Your own bookselling website from just £24 a year with no commission charges
If you're UK-based and sell old and out-of-print books online, you need your own personal website where you can invite customers to see selections of your books without them being distracted by millions of books from other booksellers.
As well as appearing on your own personal website, your books are also listed on the main UKBookWorld.com website and, if applicable, on the OldTravelBooks.com, OldLocalHistoryBooks.com, and UKBookBuying.com websites.
A website with UKBookWorld costs just £24 a year for listing up to 1,000 titles (£36 a year for 5,000; £48 a year for 10,000). There's no set-up fee; no commission fees on sales; no hidden extras (although you can optionally upgrade to the UK Book Gallery search engine optimization service).
The UKBookSelling.com service is available for UK-based booksellers only and all books must be priced in pounds sterling.
If you already use either Homebase or Booklist to list your books, you're already equipped. Simply set up a UKBookselling.com "UKBookWorld personal website" account now and upload your books.
In particular, if you list books on ABE or Amazon, you should also have your own completely separate website at UKBookWorld from where you can operate independently.
ABE may be good; ABE plus your own personal website is far better. With your own website every sale is commission-free - 100% of the sale price is yours.
With your own UKBookWorld website you've got opportunities to generate substantial extra sales on top of those arriving through ABE or wherever else you advertise.
Your personal website gives you control, enabling you to ...
Additional exposure for your books
Generate commission-free sales by publicising, advertising or otherwise promoting your own books in any way you want, to whom you want, when you want
Save substantial sums in commission fees by enabling customers making enquiries on books listed elsewhere on any commission-based website to order direct from you through your personal website
Use the free UKBookLink.com service to give potential customers clickable links in emails, blogs, newsgroups and other online networks direct to individual titles or selections of your books
Get your own domain name - BloggsBooks.com or whatever - and link it to your personal website holding your own books alone. Adding your own domain name will cost you only around £10 a year.
So as to maintain a reasonable quality of book entries across the UKBookWorld service, we automatically filter out books priced below £4.
We'll have your personal website up and running and your books displayed within a few hours. You can click here to see approximately what it'll look like; or click here to see an actual working example.
