Frequently asked questions

What AI model powers the social post generator?

AuthorLoft uses Google's Gemini AI models. Posts are generated with your author voice, book details, and platform-specific formatting built in.

Do I need marketing experience?

No. The tools are designed for authors, not marketers. The AI handles copywriting, the SEO audit tells you exactly what to fix, and the bookstore listing happens automatically.

Can I schedule social media posts?

AuthorLoft generates the post content — you copy it to your social platform of choice. This gives you full control over timing and lets you add your personal touch before posting.

How does the affiliate program work?

Enable affiliates on any book, set a commission percentage, and share referral links. When someone buys through an affiliate link, the commission is tracked automatically.

Is the bookstore listing automatic?

Yes. When you publish a book on AuthorLoft, it's automatically listed in the shared bookstore at authorloft.com/bookstore, organized by genre for reader discovery.
