I’ve been asked to contribute regular posts to the BookBaby blog. So watch for my posts at http://www.bookbaby.com
Do you have one or more books to promote? Do you address, inform, educate and entertain your audience through your own well-targeted blog? Do you comment at other related blogs? And do you seek out guest blog opportunities? Whether your book is fiction or nonfiction, or a print or ebook, you should be doing all of the above in order to increase your exposure, thus sales.
How do you know whether or not your blog posts are being read? Yesterday, just since my post appeared at BookBaby, I have received 9 new requests for the free ebooklet I offer at my site. This means that 9 new people have visited my site, are aware of who I am, and know about my books for authors. This also means that, since they must sign up for my ebooklet, I have added 9 names of potential customers to my growing list of around 1,000.
If you haven’t done so, try it. If you have tried it and it didn’t work out for you, come at it from a different angle. Maybe you aren’t clear, yet, about who your target audience is, for example.
I’m going to talk more about this in tomorrow’s post.

What a great photo to go with your article on personality sells books! You know a dog picture will capture my attention any time. Nine new readers is a great response for one blog. Congratulations on a new venue.
