Ad-Supported eBooks
In December, 2010, WOWIO was issued patent #7,848,951 providing a specific methodology for inserting ads into eBooks. Advertising partners have included Fandango, Maxim Magazine, ABC Television, and many more national brands. Ad-supported eBook distribution promotes the consumption of literature and increases global literacy.
EBook sales are accelerating, greatly due to the proliferation of smart personal devices. 1 in 5 books purchased will be an eBook by the end of 2012. Studio W's ad-supported eBook model helps expand the universe of available eBook titles and eBook consumers. Ad-supported eBooks enable publishers to reach broader audiences and provide brands/advertisers with a non-traditional way to connect with consumers.
