A publisher campaign lasts six weeks. A BookLab page keeps working.
I don’t sell reviews. I sell a place on the lists and pages my readers already use to pick their next book. Those pages stay up, keep ranking, and keep sending people to the book long after launch week.
About 46k followers on X, 18k subscribers on YouTube, and an X audience that bookmarks instead of just liking. The site picks up traffic from Google, Bing, YouTube, X, and ChatGPT.
I cover psychology, human nature, philosophy, Stoicism, biography, history, economics, tech, and AI. If your book belongs on that shelf, I’d like to hear about it.
Launch week is loud and short. The useful part is what still works in month three and month six.
Monthly releases pages bring in about a third of every Google click the site has ever had. They go live about a month early, so they can start ranking before pub day. The November 2026 list was on Google’s first page a month before November began.
Spotlight pages keep drawing search traffic after the posts have scrolled by. The Process by Mitesh Jani is the site’s second-best page, still ranking months after it went up. You’re Not Dead Yet reached Google’s first page within days.
A short timed to a release can show up in Google’s video carousel. The one for The Infinity Machine did more than 1,600 views and sat at #1–2 for the title.
That’s what you’re buying. A page that stays findable, next to books I already recommend.
Title, author, pub date, a link, and a line on why it fits. I read every submission myself.
Same standard I use for the free monthly list. I only take books I can put on the page with a straight face, and most submissions don’t make it. That’s what keeps readers trusting the list you’d be on.
Unless it’s not commercially available yet. Then you can send a copy.
Your Spotlight page, posts on X, and if you take the monthly slot, the releases page and the YouTube video. The page stays live after the launch calendar moves on.
$150
A page of its own for the book, whether it’s just out or has been out for a while.
A good fit if you want the book to keep being findable, not just mentioned once.
$350
The one paid slot on that month’s list. Built for authors who are about to publish.
Pages go up about a month before the release month, which is the useful window.
Prices are the prices. They’re the same for everyone.
One per month. Updated when a slot is taken.
| Month | Slot |
|---|---|
| November 2026 | Open |
| December 2026 | Open |
| January 2027 | Open |
The October list is already live. Write if you want November, December, or January.
I skip AI-generated books, vanity press, and topics outside that list. The placement is what you buy. What I say about the book stays mine, and that honesty is what makes the placement worth anything.
If you want a reserved spot, email me the details below. If you’d rather be considered for the free monthly list first, use Submit a Book. No payment, and no promise I’ll feature it.
I read what comes in. If it’s a fit, I’ll tell you how we can do it. If it’s close but the monthly slot is wrong, we can look at Spotlight instead.
