Published by: Online Ebook Fair | Updated: July 2025

In the Age of AI and Short Attention Spans β€” Authors Must Be Seen, Not Just Read

Writing a good book is no longer enough.

In 2025, with AI-generated content everywhere, social media feeds packed with noise, and attention spans shrinking, your author brand is what separates you from the crowd. Readers don’t just buy books anymore β€” they follow personalities, values, and voices they trust.

At Online Ebook Fair, we help authors not only publish β€” but stand out. Here’s why author branding is the #1 strategy to grow your readership and book sales this year.

πŸ“ˆ What Is Author Branding (And Why It Matters)?

Author branding is how readers perceive you, not just your books.

It’s your online presence, your tone, your genre, your values β€” and how you consistently show up across your website, social media, book covers, and profiles.

  • Build reader trust and loyalty
  • Sell more books across all platforms
  • Attract publishers, agents, and media
  • Stand out in your genre or niche
  • Charge more for your work over time

  • 70% of book purchases begin with an online search
  • Readers are 3x more likely to buy from authors with a personal brand
  • Self-published authors are using platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and AI tools to scale faster
