1283391	2012-06-22 21:52:00	Hmm not much is it, if I ever get my damn book finished I'll be looking for somewhere to self publish too, self promotion is all you can do at this point	gary67 (56)
1283392	2012-06-23 02:56:00	I been thinking of publishing kindle books and ebooks, by basically rewriting articles from my niche sites/blogs. But I read from a successful marketer, that it helps if you build up bit of a web presence authority or trust. Another way is to get ideas from trusted and successful affiliate marketers, e.g from here (www.stevescottsite.com) (Kindle tutorial with Google's Keyword tool)) or smart passive income.

1283394	2012-06-23 09:44:00	..get ideas from trusted and successful affiliate marketers, e.g from here (www.stevescottsite.com) (Kindle tutorial with Google's Keyword tool Some of those ideas resonate with me such as treating a first book as a learning exercise. eg, now that a few months have gone by, I would change the synopsis and would also include a website link in the book. I might also use a pseudonym (I believe it's possible) (You're not allowed to have links in the synopsis - and possibly not in some of the early pages which people might read before purchase? - but I think it's OK to have links in the book proper) But my main reaction to reading those links is that I'm not a marketing person. I appreciate the value of marketing but ... I... simply ... can't do it "Shades of Grey" trilogy. Ha! Had to look that up in Wikipedia... I've just discovered that my arithmetic (in the original post is wrong). I actually need 300 sales - not 30 - to get 100 units of currency	BBCmicro (15761)
