Need To Sell More Books? Start A Blog.


Many authors fail to understand why they need to start a blog. Blogging is in fact one of the most beneficial things you can do in order to gain exposure for your books. But the key to success is not to to just stick up a blog and forget about it. Consistency is what will brings massive results. There are few things for you to take into consideration when deciding to start a blog. First of all, you have to decide what topic you want to talk about in your blog. Do you want to focus on the topics and themes in your book? Do you want to talk about relationships? Do you want your blog to teach something? It is up to you. But if you are going to start a blog, you have to keep it updated. You should plan on blogging a minimum of 3 days a week, twice a day. The more you post to your blog, the more it will rank in the search engines. The more you rank in the search engines, the easier it will be for people to find what you have written about. You can start out on a free platform, such as this one, just to get yourself used to posting. It takes practice. It also takes discipline because sometimes you will not want to sit down and write. You want to make your posts informative, educational and even entertaining. You want to give your visitors a reason to come to your site and why they should stick around once they do visit. If at all possible, you should try to make your posts at least 350 to 500 words. So, if you want to sell more books, dust off that blog, or, get one set up and get to writing. Make sure that you mention your book or books in the title of your posts, and in the first paragraph of your posts if the title of your blog has nothing to do with your book.
 Until next time,
