Hi Tracy! Welcome.

At the top bar click on Community, then in the drop down find Spread The Word... there is facebook info after that one.

Also, under  More, the last choice under Spread The Word there are banners and things you can use for sites.  Bookmarks you can print out and cards and flyers are in there also.

Have fun, you will love it here.

Thanks... when I click on the FB info it takes me to their page but I want to be able to post a link people can click on so that I can get credit.  Is this possible?

Under "spread the word" click on "Facebook app" then on the Facebook page, click "add to my page." That will place a Paperback Swap box on your profile page.

Okay.  So is this something that I can share so that people can click it and I get credit?

You will not get credits for clicks.

If someone joins Paperback Swap and says they were referred by you, you will get a credit for the referral. They have to join the site, though.

Thanks.  I know I don't get credit for clicks but I found out from a blog site that had a direct link to this site with her info already there so that when I joined she got credit automatically.  I was hoping to be able to post a link like that in a group that I am a member of on FB so that when someone clicked on the link it would be filled with my info so after they joined I got credit.
