Tons of Online Promotion for Fiction Authors

Every time I turn around, I find online venues where fiction authors can promote their work. Here's a few you may find helpful:

The Author Exchange Blog: where I was recently interviewed.

Chris Redding's Blog: where she interviews authors and features guest bloggers.

Beyond Her Book: Barbara Vey's blog for Publisher's Weekly. She does book giveaways and three-line reviews, every week.

Book Masons: joined this and still haven't utilized it, but I should explore it (since I do write book reviews and all).

And, of course, you want to keep sending out those queries to agents. Writer's Digest recently named 24 literary agents looking for new clients.

So . . . like I said, every time I turn around, a new one appears. (I just HAVE to stop turning around so much.)

Online promotion strategies you should take into consideration in order for you to promote your website and generate guaranteed hits. Although there is huge competition in the online world, this does not necessarily mean that you can no longer stand out and create a whole deal of difference when it comes to your online business or website.

Needless to say, I agree. Although SEO techniques play a part in such strategies, I still subscribe the notion that "content is king."

Write about stuff people want to read in highly readable prose, come up with a compelling headline (think keywords) and a good lead and readers will come.
