Lend Your Assistance to Good e-Reader with Patreon

Good e-Reader has been going strong since 2007, when the original Kindle came out. We have made it our mission to chronicle the e-Reader, eBook and digital publishing sectors. We have been completely bootstrapped, using our own funds to travel to bookfairs and tech events to bring you all the latest trends in the industry. Additionally, whenever a new e-reader or tablet comes out, we certainly aren’t getting them for free. Some devices like the Sony Digital Paper e-reader ended up costing us $1400. To help balance things out and to keep us operational we need your support with our new Patreon Campaign.

Patreon is a crowd funding platform that allows you to pay a monthly subscription to us, in exchange for some tremendous benefits. Not only do you guys keep us writing 2-6 articles a day, generating YouTube videos or reviewing the latest and greatest gadgets, but you get some subscriber benefits. We have some tiers that have us doing a video streaming session once a month, ask anything you want. Want to know if you should hold off buying that new Kindle now, because something is even better on the horizon? We can answer it live. We also get a ton of custom content ideas, does the Sony Digital Paper handle sheet music or is the Kobo H20 good for PDFS? Before you spend the money, we can answer your question with a custom video made just for you.

For the last eight years Peter and Michael have basically just been basically just using their own funds to pay hosting fees, travel all over and buy everything they review. Google Ads help pay for the core fees, but doesn’t leave much left over to buy every new Kindle, Nook, or Onyx e-reader that comes out. Certainly when it comes to giving you the latest trends and forecasts travelling is essential, and all of these fees add up.

Good e-Reader would love your support for our first ever Patreon campaign! This sort of thing is completely safe to use and they handle all of the financials on their end, we don’t have access to your private information. Apparently they are processing millions of dollars a month for blogs, web-comic artists and designers. Help keep Good e-Reader as the #1 independent news sites out there.
