Advertising Your New Kindle Book

If you've published a book on Kindle, you may be wondering where you can advertise it.

Typically, the New York Times, the Minneapolis Tribune, et al, are not going to review a book published on the Kindle - or any e-reader - unless it is also published as a print book as well.

But Kindle readers have taken care of that themselves.

If you're going to publish books on the Kindle, you must become a presence on the Kindle message boards. However - you mustn't spam, that just annoys people. Take what they give you.

There are two Kindle message boards.

One is actually a website:

http://www.kindleboards.com/

The other are the message boards on Amazon itself.

http://www.amazon.com/tag/kindle/forum/ref=sv_kinc_6

There are several threads for authors to advertise their new books - just find one in the right category.

Of course - make sure your book is properly formatted before you put it up for sale.

I'll discuss formatting books for the Kindle tomorrow.
