What People Are Saying About BIBA

Testimonials for Best Indie Book award.

BIBA Award Amplifies Credibility and Reader Impact

After Triple Win Leadership Coaching reached #1 bestseller on Amazon, receiving recognition from the Best Indie Book Awards (BIBA) gave the book an additional boost in visibility and credibility. BIBA is a meaningful award program that honors quality work and helps the right books reach more readers. As an author, I value recognition that ultimately serves the readerโ€”and Iโ€™m grateful to be part of an awards community that champions books that truly add value.

Testimonial for the Best Indie Book Award

It’s with immense gratitude that I pen down my appreciation for the team at Best Indie Book Award. The relentless support and promotion of my book have been beyond exceptional.
The spotlighting of indie authors has been incredible. The frequent features on both BIBA’s Facebook page and Instagram channel have not only given my book visibility but have also connected me with a wider audience of passionate readers.
Winning the 2023 Best Indie Book Award was an unexpected surprise and a deeply fulfilling moment in my writing journey. The recognition has added a layer of validation to the countless hours spent crafting each word and refining the techniques shared in “Breaking Through: The Secrets of Bassai Dai Kata.”
To the entire Best Indie Book Award team, thank you for championing independent voices in the literary world. Your commitment to celebrating diverse narratives is truly making a difference.

“I believe in using awards as a marketing device to help readers have something more than a book cover or genre to select one book over the many published each year, each day.”

Thanks, BIBA!

I’m honored to receive the 2023 Best Indie Book Award for best short story collection. It’s difficult to succeed as an independently published author, and this award is a validation for all of the time and effort that each of the winners put into their books. Thank you, BIBA for the recognition!

A Coveted Honor

I can’t adequately express my gratitude for the honor of this win. As an independent author, standing out among others in my genre gives measurable value to the hard work involved in producing a novel. Thank you BiBA.

“I was honored to win the 2017 Children’s Award, and ever since then BIBA has done an excellent job of maintaining a connection and supporting me (and all other) authors in incredible ways. They constantly retweet my big announcements and work and help to get the word out about most things that I do! I’m not sure if this is typical of indie book awards, but regardless it is incredibly supportive and kind. Highly recommend them for their support of indie authors!”

Definitely worth entering!

Even though I didn’t actually win, the feedback I got was a very pleasant surprise. I didn’t realize I would get an in depth review of what was great and what could be improved about my book. That alone was worth the entry fee and I will be entering more books in the future!
