There are always new tools popping up for authors everyday. One that stands out in particular is a tool called BookVibe Alerts. BookVibe Alerts simply let’s you input your book information into the console and keep track of all your book mentions on Twitter.
It’s fairly simple to set up. Just go to the BookVibe Alerts tool and search for your book. I did a search on the book I published last year titled, NYC’s Crowdsourced Dessert Guide and purposely put in a typo. The tool found me book and let me setup an alert.
It’s great for authors who get tired of searching hashtags. It’s kind of like Mention.net but just for books. You can search book titles, author names, or ISBNs.
Lover of books. CEO & founder of Bibliocrunch. Love storytelling in all its forms. Formerly TIME. I'm a new media entrepreneur who has worked in the media industry for 11 years. My mission is simple – to innovate the publishing industry with technology. My company has been featured in BBC World News, Money Magazine, Bloomberg, Consumer Reports, Forbes, WSJ, MediaBistro, PBS, Columbia Journalism Review, The Next Web, Publishers Weekly, and a bunch of other places. Bibliocrunch was also selected as The Next Big Thing in media by the Paley Center. I also used to run a popular South Asian culture blog called Divanee. Before I ran my own company and became a mom, I used to be on the board for several literacy organizations, and wrote a LOT more. Hopefully, when things are calmer I can go back to that! :)
