Inkflash

Inkflash-ad-350x250Inkflash is a Virtual Reality bookshop for authors, publishers and readers – all the 3D graphical goodness runs in your web browser. Visitors to this unique 3D website explore themed immersive rooms, where each room is like an interactive book trailer; a room can be a library, castle, alien planet, South Sea island, volcano or anything else.

We only launched recently, but we’re already helping authors to take their book marketing into a new dimension.

Services

* We can design and create a Virtual Reality “author room” to showcase your books. It’s like an interactive book trailer that readers can step inside and explore, from within their web browser
* Visitors can tweet a photo of your room at the click of a button
* If you already have a book trailer, this can be shown on a 3D video screen inside the room too
* Instant home page displaying your author bio, photo, links to your website and social media pages, and of course your books (complete with Amazon links), at inkflash.com/YourName
* Your 3D room can be displayed on your own website simply by copying & pasting a few lines of HTML (just like embedding a YouTube video)
* Social media marketing – once your room is created, we’ll tweet about your room and books regularly. Link your room to Twitter, Facebook etc to complete your social media marketing campaign
* Virtual book tours – host touring authors’ books on a “guest shelf”, and receive inbound visitors in return
* Dedicated book page showing your book cover, description, message forum and reviews. In fact, if your book is on Amazon, it already has a page on Inkflash – like this one for Eat Nourish Glow
* Online review aggregation – if a review website or blogger has reviewed your book, our hyper-smart web crawler will find it and show an excerpt from the review on your book page

Choose a memorable setting from your book and we’ll bring it to life in a form that visitors can explore. Please check our website for many recent examples.

“Inkflash’s 3D Virtual Reality rooms are magical and addictive. No two rooms are alike! I love the mysterious and haunting room that was created for my novel The Silver Tattoo. Inkflash is the next big thing in book promotion. Watch out Amazon!”
– Laura Treacy Bentley, author of psychological thrillers The Silver Tattoo and Night Terrors
