Armchair BEA - How do I network?
When it comes to networking I use several community outlets.
I use my local library to post about up coming blogging tours,
author interviews, and book giveaways.
I also make use of the local television stations and their
online community calendar to reach a larger audience.
I also send a community happenings notice to my
local newspaper for the interviews and giveaways.
I also let my friends and family help spread
the word through e-mail and face-to-face conversations.
I also post events on Facebook, Twitter, DiggIt,
and LinkedIn.
How do you spread the word about your blog?
Please comment!
Stopping by from Armchair BEA. :)
ReplyDeleteI use twitter and facebook too. I made friends with our local bookstore since I keep on lurking in there. Haha!

Where I live there are no local bookstores. :(
DeleteThe closest one closed over 10 years ago, now they are about 50 miles away! :(
I hadn't thought of actually putting notices up or anything - thats a great tip - thank you!

I put a small poster up on the notice board and postcard size papers at the library check-out desk. This also influences what books the library purchases.
DeleteWow, I never thought about posting notices in such public venues about blog tours and giveaways! That's such a great idea.
ReplyDeleteHappy ABEA!
Hope it works for you too!
