Every day of the week, I look over dozens of author MySpace profiles and blogs. And every day, I’m appalled at how many don’t show off the author’s book with a cover image or link to Amazon.
Often the site will say simply, “Check out my book on Amazon or Barnes & Noble.”
Well, if you really want people to check out your book, make it drop-dead easy. Provide a hyperlink to your book’s page on Amazon, BN.com, or your own direct-sales page.
And if you’re HTML-challenged, Amazon is making it easier than ever for you to place smart-looking widgets for your book on your blog or Web site. Here’s a rundown on all the available Amazon widgets.
And while you’re at it, join the affiliate program, Amazon Associates, so you’ll earn a commission on each of the sales.
