Social Networking for Authors

Social networking has become one of the strongest trends on the Internet. There are now hundreds of sites where you can interact with others who have similar interests to you. The great thing is that you can target your specific audience and join groups that are formed around the theme or genre of your book.

Let's say you have written a romance novel. There are several sites that focus strictly on romance novels. Some of these sites have hundreds of members. When you join you have the opportunity to network with each of these members.

Additionally, there are several excellent sites that focus on books and reading. This is another great place for you to participate.

And of course there are the huge sites like MySpace. You can join such sites and then find others who are interested in your topic. You can invite them to become friends, comment on their pages, join groups of like-minded people and much more.

There are a few things you need to know when joining such sites. You will want to:

Focus on friendships
Post to a blog
Post events
Post your calendar
Add a subscription box for your ezine/newsletter
Post book excerpts
Join groups
Post your video book trailers
Post about your virtual book tour
