Blogging Advice From Expert Blogger Kristen Lamb

Beginning in 2008, I developed a series of three blogs meant to promote my work as a novelist. I never got anywhere with them because, unlike you, I never figured out how to get people to visit. So, I gave up. I have an author website, with info on me and my books, audio files of me reading from them etc., but nothing has ever come of my efforts. And for the same reason: I don’t know how to get people to visit. All I want–for Christmas and every other day– is to find a savvy, honest book marketer who will charge me something less than an arm and a leg to develop a sales scheme, AND THEN IMPLEMENT IT. I would of course do whatever the marketer told me to do, but I’m old, so I need a fast-and-dirty approach, not one that takes years. And for the same reason, I need someone who doesn’t just formulate policy (as they say in MBA school), but also implements it.
If you know of any such people and can pass along their names , I will buy you an all-expenses getaway weekend to Valhalla.

What to do, what to do? […]
