For book/ebook authors, publishers, & self-publishers

Websites

I created a new website on Freeweb, as I noticed a lot of people use them. I hope I haven't used the same template as too many others, but it did seem appropriate...please visit and let me know what you think

I went to your site and I was wondering you include a bit about your book? like if its a fiction or Christian fiction etc. the cost and have you thought of ordering some to sell a bit more as autograph copies? Also, may want to add or consider later to booking bookmarks or post cards.

First impression was a very spiritual healing feeling. A positive feeling, Since I am new I don't know what you should do or should not do this is a learning experience for me as well. Good Job.

Also, Cindy it won't hurt to link with other sites and try submitting to free search engines as well. Like to web rings, topsites, submit free. if you have christian friend here ask if they would link back as well.

This was told me to me so i am sharing the advice as well.

Perfect idea...I am not sure how many links I can add, but if there are some of you that would like me to post a link to your site then please forward it to me...I will start with the first 10 I receive.

CJ (ever consider working at the White House :o)),
Very nice web site - the only things I miss are

1: ISBN number and a more meaty resume of your book.

2. I don't know anything about Publish America, but if they allow it you should also try to sell your book from your web site.

3. A more complete profile of yourself, what compelled you to write this book, what other work you have published - and where.

Otherwise a very tasteful site. What you need are links from other sites. Tell all your friends about your site, tell them you need links.

A man - Canadian, no less - named Jon Leger has a very good script that gives you a lot of links. The url:

http://3WayLinks.net/

It's not free - nothing ever is - but it is very effective.

If you're allowed advertising on freewebs.com, have a look at this:

Best of luck with your project
