October 30, 2009 - CatholicBookVideos.com has launched as the premier viewing place for Catholic book videos on the Internet. Book videos, also called book previews or Book Trailers™, are video advertisements for books that employ techniques similar to those of movie trailers.
Books are considered movies of the mind. In the same way, book videos give readers a peek into the story or message in a book, helping the reader decide whether to invest the time to read a title. While book videos started appearing in 2002, they grew in popularity when user-generated online video captured the public’s attention.
Today, many publishers create book videos for the books they release. “Catholic book readers want a one-stop website to see what is new in Catholic reads,” stated Edward Bolme, Managing Director of CatholicBookVideos.com. “Catholic readers no longer have to search multiple websites to find book videos for Catholic-themed books. CatholicBookVideos.com meets this need through aggregating all the book videos created for books developed by Catholic publishers and authors.”
The United States has the fourth largest Catholic population in the world. Around 23 percent of people in the United States adhere to the Catholic faith. For Catholics, having a website that they can trust to preview books written by and for Catholics is important.
CatholicBookVideos.com is owned and operated by Marketing Christian Books Inc. of Charlotte, North Carolina. The company also owns and operates ChristianBookVideos.com. This website also hosts the CrossTweet Directory of Christian authors who use Twitter.
Publishers and authors can submit their book videos to CatholicBookVideos.com for free. Advertising opportunities are also available.
