Booklinker solves a problem many authors encounter immediately.
International Amazon links are annoying.
An author in the UK shares an Amazon UK link.
A reader in the US clicks it.
Suddenly things become more awkward than they need to be.
Booklinker fixes this elegantly.
But modern book marketing often needs a little more.
Authors are promoting books everywhere.
- TikTok
- Newsletters
- Podcasts
- QR codes
- Websites
Eventually, redirecting readers isn't enough.
You also want to understand what's working.
Here are some alternatives worth considering.
1. Tutarium
Best for: Authors who want analytics and routing together.
Tutarium combines several workflows into one place.
Features include:
- Regional Amazon routing
- Reader-facing book pages
- Campaign links
- Analytics dashboards
- Affiliate support
Instead of sharing one link everywhere, authors can create campaign links for different marketing efforts.
This makes it easier to answer simple but important questions.
- Which newsletter worked?
- Which Facebook post generated interest?
- Which countries are my readers in?
2. Books2Read
Best for: Wide distribution.
Excellent retailer coverage and reader choice.
3. Geniuslink
Best for: Advanced marketers.
Powerful and flexible.
Potentially overkill for many authors.
4. Bitly
Best for: Generic link shortening.
Reliable but not book aware.
5. Linktree
Best for: Author profiles.
Useful alongside other tools.
Which tool is right for you?
That depends on your goal.
| Goal | Tool |
|---|---|
| International Amazon links | Booklinker |
| Wide distribution | Books2Read |
| Marketing analytics | Tutarium |
| Generic links | Bitly |
| Social profiles | Linktree |
I think authors often optimise for convenience first.
That's understandable.
But eventually, data becomes more valuable than convenience.
Because if you can learn where readers come from and what marketing actually works, every future launch becomes easier than the last.
