Not all authors want Bookbub reviews, but as anyone can create an account, it is an option available to all ARC readers and will provide you with some book review options even if you don’t have any other review sites you can use.

We can only track one Bookbub account per reader, so please add your profile from the Bookbub account you plan to use to leave reviews on from the books you get from us.

You can do this from the Manage Profiles Links menu option. The Bookbub section is near the bottom, and if we already have it you will see the URL to your profile there. If you click it, it will take you to your Bookbub public profile page. If this is not the profile you wish to use, then click the Request to Change Profile Link button, which we’ll talk more about in the Editing section of the main part of this FAQ question.

If we don’t have your profile yet, then you can add it via the Click to add profile link button.  This will open up a couple of windows that will guide you towards finding and adding your profile link, but we’ll go over all of that here as well.

The first step is to login to your Bookbub account and click on the My Profile link found via the dropdown at the top right of the screen, as indicated in the screenshot above by the big red arrow. Once you’ve done that, click Next.

Once you click that, your browser should open up to your Bookbub profile page (the screenshot above shows what that might look like – except yours will show your own public Bookbub name) and what we need from here is the URL, which is found in the address bar of the browser up at the top – where the big red arrow is pointing.  It would be something like “https://www.bookbub.com/profile/346290XXXX” where the ending is different for each profile.  Highlight that whole URL from your browser and copy it, then paste it into the box in this step that says “Enter Your Bookbub Profile Link” down at the bottom of that window.

Hit Submit and then you’re all done (it may take a few seconds as it validates your profile).

We now have your Bookbub profile and should be able to find your reviews whenever you submit your review on your Reader Form to let us know that they have been added and approved!

Note: If you have any problems with any of this, please contact us for help!
