Building a web site....
'Your website should have a single page dedicated to listing all of your books and where to buy them' they say. Problem - not enough room, so I've divided the books into categories, like The Ireland Books, LiteBite Books, and so on.
'About the Author' is a must have page, they say. I HATE writing about myself. Ah well, better give it a go...
'Multiple Ways to Contact/Follow/Like You' they say. That generates too much spam, I find. So I modify it.
'Email List Sign-Up'. Not sure about this. You can't make a list if nobody emails you. More thought needed...
'You!'. Same problem as the Author heading. Besides I'm not trying to sell me. That's quite a different business....
I wonder what the result looks like? ()

Trying to write....
Writing, I find, is a slow business. What I have so far written has taken four years. So you can’t announce a new book every month in a Blog like this one.

So lacking a new book to announce each month, I thought that the stages of development I am following towards the goal of making my books sell might be of interest. As a complete novice I started by devouring as many ‘how to� articles and books as I could afford, the most recent and so far the best being 10 Keys to Ebook Marketing Success by Karen Baney. She, like most authors in this genre, is American, as I think is my target audience, except they are the Irish American community.
This week I’m working through her 5 areas every author website must have. Time - and this News page - will tell if they make any difference! ...more
