About IAN

Welcome to
The Independent Author Network


The Ideal IAN member is active on Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn, maintains updated websites and blogs, works actively to increase their audience with frequent mentions about their books, and posts fresh blog content about their books and all things writing and publishing. 


Due to increasing site costs we have begun to charge a small onetime setup fee for membership. This fee will not be charged again! Current members will not be charged.

Those authors who would like to join are directed to fill in and submit the Membership Submission Form. These files will be used to build your IAN Member page. The page will be built after we receive the setup fee through Paypal. When we receive the complete form you will be contact with a link to our Paypal page.  

All members will be asked to Tweet and Facebook link their member page. So right away each member would have a member page and will be able to have articles such as book reviews and interviews posted to The Independent Author Network Blog and the Reader's Choice Book Blog.

Active members are seeing over 2000 hits to their IAN page per month! Members are reporting sales increases shortly after joining. Google or Yahoo search a member and chances are the member's page shows up on page one of the search.  
Memberships: Please visit the FAQ for more info.
