We will discuss the possibilities and find the approach that seems best for you book. The interviews are hosted on my BlogTalkRadio page and listeners can call in to ask questions, or they can listen online for free and submit questions in the online chat option. A copy of the interview is posted for download.

With this service - I set up your Blog Talk Radio show and teach you how to optimize your show and how to promote the show to get maximum exposure. You are on your way to being an internet radio personality.

Social Networking & Social Bookmarking Sites - Use Web 2.0 Strategies

Are you interested in having a presence on various Social Networking sites? We can do that for you. We'll discuss what you want to promote and then determine which sites are best for you. After we discuss the possibilities and my recommendations, we'll discuss a plan to develop your presence online. There are many social networking sites, but you don't need to be on them all. So, we plan the sites that are the most beneficial to you and then develop a plan to have a continuing presence. I can teach you or you can hire us to do this for you. I also offer education about using social bookmarking to increase your presense and visibility.

Customized E-books to Promote Your Books

www.nikkileigh.com/promo_ebooks.htm

Take a look at the promotional e-book information and visit this page to download your own copies of these e-books. The link to download these e-books will be emailed to you. I've used these to promote my books, created them for clients and have used this technique to show the content of several of my ghostwriting projects. They are a simple way to get information about your books into the hands of potential readers, booksellers, libraries, publishers or anyone else. You can also post information about these e-books on any and all free e-book directories on the interview to get massive free exposure for your books.

Amazon Optimization

There are many ways to make your presence on Amazon more effective. Some of these include: the Search Inside the Book program, Amazon Connect, your profile, posting reviews and much more. I can set up most of these for you and help you learn to use them better. The fee depends on how many options you want to use.

Blog Creation, Optimizing and Blog Counseling

Do you need a blog? I feel that every author needs a blog or two and especially authors who don’t have a website. So, I guess the question should be, do you have a blog or do you need one? There are ways to optimize your blog, customize your blog and tips to help you get better results on your blog. These are all things that I can do for you. I can also work with you one on one to customize the blog and that gives you the knowledge to make updates and changes to the blog appearance and information that you can promote on the blog. Or, I can do it for you. If you would like to see some of the things I’ve done on my blogs, the full list is on my Blogger.com profile page - http://www.blogger.com/profile/00985309338453728557

Creation of a “Book Blog”

I was looking for an easy way to create an online presence to promote individual books or a series of books. That’s when the “book blog” was born. The idea was to create one blog centered on one book or a series and I would only update the blog if there was new information about the book. This is a link to the blog I created for Lilah and the Locket – Cape Hatteras 1954 - http://outerbankslilah.blogspot.com/. Since I need to keep the blog active, I’ll post some reviews and I’m planning a sequel so there will be news about that book as well. It could be used to promote a new release and simply use the link in your email signature block or on your website. The blog will be created and optimized for you. The fee for this service depends on the number of pages that you want to use.

  Editing and Book Doctor Services

I have done editing work and I can work with an author to clean up their manuscript before it is submitted to publishers or agents. However, the work I really enjoy is working with the author to find problem areas, give advice on ways to make the story even better. I was amazed when I realized just how much a “fresh set of eyes” can find in a book that has been working on again and again. For over 4 years, I’ve working with authors to find ways to make their book better – that can include flow of the story, character consistency and development, setting consistency and development and much more. Editing fees begin at $2 per 250 word page. Book doctoring normally starts at $6 per 250 word page – the rate depends on the type of work your manuscript needs. I can take a look at the manuscript and give you an estimate.
