Make Amazon work for you

In my May 30th post, below, I mentioned some of the ways you can use Amazon to create visibility for your books. You can comment on forums, post lists, and of course, review books, mentioning your book or website along the way.

Amazon has also announced it is Beta testing AuthorCentral at www.AuthorCentral.Amazon.com.  AuthorCentral takes the place of Amazon Connect which allowed any author with a book on Amazon to add a blog.

AuthorCentral allows you to do a number of things from one page – add photos, add a blog, add new books, apply for Search Inside the Book add your book to Kindle and become an Amazon Associate – all in an effort to help authors sell more of their books on Amazon.

If you have a book on Amazon and haven’t already done so, add your own blog to Amazon at AuthorCentral by clicking on “Add a blog you already write using an RSS feed”. It will automatically be updated each time you add a blog post.

This is a very cool way to increase your visibility online. Why not do it today?
