Blogging About Your Book

It is important to blog about your book when you first begin to write about your book in your blog when you first start writing you book outline.

You want to start attracting an audience. Those who will follow your story. You can write about the process of writing. Your emotional challenges. The struggles you might face in knowing which direction to go with your writing.

You have a chance to reveal your personality on your blog and build up a bit of anticipation for the release of your book. This is a great opportunity for you to engage your new fans.

The will want to know about why you are writing the book, how much time you spend writing, where you get your inspiration and what made you decide to write you book on your particular topic.

There are no rules about the frequency you should write, I typically write once a week or every two weeks, it depends on the blog.

But get the blog started and start building your following.

Blog Recognition

I decided to convert another of my 41 websites to a blog last week. You won’t believe what I discovered. This is one of the few places that I have not revealed what a fanatic I am about tracking my efforts. I totally believe in quantifying my efforts. If it doesn’t ink, I won’t do it. If it doesn’t show a return, I stop it!

I converted my website that has been up for more than 3 years and in one week it was ranked at 5 million, three weeks previously it was ranked 30 million. That’s in the top 5% of all websites in the world. True enough I added video, and an RSS feed which adds similar content to your blog every time the top is mentioned. It raises your rankings rapidly because of the frequency.

I still have to add my Twitter Feed which will also raise the rankings. But as an author of many interests, I now have 11 blogs and only 4 of them are websites.

I believe I will now covert several of my other websites to blogs.
