Topic: Advantage of the Booksie site?

Can someone please tell me what the advantage is of publishing a novel for free on Booksie? Is it just an alternate way of temporarily promoting your ebook for free (similar to a Kindle promotion)? If not, then what is its purpose? Does anyone here use it?

Thanks
Dirk

Re: Advantage of the Booksie site?

I've been on Booksie longer than I have been here. I published a lot of my novels and short stories there first. Some are still there, some aren't. The members of Booksie tend to be younger, at least from what I've noticed. Of course, at 75, younger is relative. You get different reviews there than you get here. There is no point system, so no motivation to give lengthy reviews. I get a lot of "Good chapter." entries. Just recently, Sol added the capability for inline commenting.
