Service 05 · Visibility Review

Understand where readers might actually see your book.

Visibility is about opportunity: when readers browse the spaces your book belongs in, does it have a fair chance to be noticed?

What it is

A review of where your book appears — categories, search results, lists, recommendations, social spaces — and how it presents itself in those moments.

Why it matters

Before investing in more exposure, it helps to know where exposure is already happening, and whether the book stands out when it does.

Questions

What this service can help investigate

Where does my book appear when readers browse my genre?

How does my cover read at thumbnail size?

Does my book stand out among comparable titles?

Which spaces am I missing entirely?
