A question I have is if I should put the book on a website. I have the website all ready, but I'm not sure if I should.
Edit: And I don't mean to buy it; I mean to read the book on the website.
One (kind of important) thing you missed: It might be a legal requirement to have pages for *Privacy Policy* and *Terms of Use* especially if you are collecting an email list.
Great point! Thanks for the addition :)
Thank you for the information. I am going to work on it soon
how to set up a page for selling products would be nice.
Hey Bella,
Thanks for the video! I would love more information on homepages as well as their designs with different intentions (lead attraction, information, etc) as examples.
I'll share much more of this in the upcoming video reviewing author websites!
Thank you so much, Bella, But I need more help. IAM not tech savvy at all.
Looking forward to the case studies video!
Here's that video for you Charlie: ua-cam.com/video/Qt_EMKUOU84/v-deo.html
Hello. Another video on specific pages an author needs on their website. Also, do you want to start your page with a lead magnet (free) or put that at the end after introducing yourself and what you do? Thanks.
I'll get into this in the upcoming review of real author websites video. That will be linked here when it's up
Great video
Hey Bella
Nice video 👍
TY!
THANK YOU
For giving a free book away on your website via a newsletter, is it better to email the reader a link to Amazon (where it’s free), or should your email include an attachment of the book? Wondering what the best way to do this 🤔
Hello. Was wondering if there was an answer to this. So sorry to disturb you again 🙏🏻
It is better to include a button in the email leading to either the website or landing page where the book can be downloaded. If it's leading to amazon (or other publishing platform) it can be gotten for free on those conditions or with a coupon code for some selected set of audience while it's not free for others.
And an interaction page with customers
i want to get my book on the shelves at the book store or libaray you have any of advice
physical book stores usually require calling and requesting that they carry the book (not as the author) and they can order them in. Libraries are similar, where they need to have the book requested enough times to order it in. hope that was helpful - i'll put this topic down for a future video
Great video! Thank you 🙏
