Once you have some copies made it's time to get your zine out into the world!



The best way to begin this is to give your zines to friends for feedback. It's also good to go to small music venues, infoshops, bookstores, or record stores that carry zines and ask if they would be willing to carry yours. For a list of infoshops click here. Zines usually range in price from 1-3 dollars.



Don't expect to get your first zine in all the shops right away, Becoming a good zinester takes practice! You can also make a website that allows people searching for zines to find you and buy copies.



If you're really adventurous, you can contact zine distributors and ask if they want to carry your zine. A large website like this is Microcosm Publishing. For More Distributors Click Here.



Zine Fests can be a fun way to meet other zinesters and share your newly found love of small press. A few of these events happen every year including:

- San Francisco Zine Fest

- Portland Zine Symposium

- New York Zine Fest



If you want your zine to get reviewed by a large crowd of zinesters mail it to Zine World, they are pretty honest and constructive. Zine world also has a listing of zines they review. A really good way to obtain new zines and get people to read yours is to do zine trades by mailing the same number of zines with someone.



Due to the significance of zines in our culture, many libraries are now starting up around the United States. A list of these libraries can be found here.
