I spent almost two years writing and researching my book. That’s a long time to work without compensation! After all the time and effort that I spent, I wanted to make sure that my book wasn’t just sitting on a shelf, collecting dust. That’s why I’m using Mike Volkin’s “Social Networking for Authors” to market my book. I love his ideas and strategies, which are easy to implement and effective. It’s also a low-cost, almost free way to market my book. I recommend Volkin’s book to any author who wants to market their book without spending a fortune doing so.

Michael Volkin “practices what he preaches” in his latest book Social Networking For Authors! I loved this book and his complementary web site! I even had a short and immediate online chat with the author…
As a book reviewer, authors often look upon me as an individual who will help them work miracles–to sell their books. I believe a review helps; however, if nobody ever reads that review, it won’t help in the sales process. It is the author who sells, and I firmly believe that one of the most important opportunities for authors is through the Internet Social Networking activities.
Authors, this book may be just the one for you!
But, really, anybody who is in sales will benefit from this book (See, Michael, I’ve already started learning from your book and see the potential!)
Michael uses selling books via social networking as the method by which he shares much on social networking. I’ve been helping authors in small ways to do that for a number of years, so I must highlight that I learned new possibilities on many, many pages. For instance, at one site where I’ve been a fairly active member, Volkin highlighted a section/process that I didn’t even know about! I also immediately joined two sites based upon the description in the book.
Volkin’s book contains a chapter on various sites. He starts by describing “Their Niche” and then goes on to explain how to use the site as a free marketing tool. Obviously not every site will be of interest to each author; however, I believe the method of his analysis will also be a training tool by which other present and future sites can be evaluated. Also, various readers will be considering the potential sites for different reasons. That is, as a book reviewer, I provide a service, so my activity is selling myself to show the assistance I provide authors, while the authors would be interesting in marketing their books!
I loved this book because one of Volkin’s premises is that you must have a primary web site upon which you are selling your product. He then proceeds to give methods by which you begin to drive people to that web site…and, in writing his book, every single chapter gives you something to check out on that web site! He not only gets you there to his site, but he has used the tools he recommends to readers on his web site so that you can actually see it operationally as well as get specific directions on how to use it! Oh, be prepared, there is a charge for some additional information such as the videos–however, isn’t that the point of his book–and what you, the author, are trying to do!
I don’t rave about too many “how to” books, but this is one that I must say is a “must read” for anybody working online to promote books and other products. If you don’t have the creativity to imagine the possibilities, let Michael Volkin in Social Networking for Authors be the creative genius behind the innovative and common sense approaches for your future actions!

Micheal Volkin shares lots of interesting resources and allows authors into a marketing world that is quite different from what they are used to.
If you know nothing about creating a website, internet marketing and web 2.0 then maybe this book will be moving a bit too fast for you. However, with just a small background of the above mentioned you will benefit greatly from his array of ideas and systematic way of venturing into the online world to market your book.
The best part of the book is the last part where Volkin explains different social networking sites, how they work and how they can benefit you as an author, all the while giving relevant examples which you can start doing right away.

If you want to fart around and waste a lot of time and money, don’t buy this book.
Mike is a very efficient author. The text is to the point with no fluff. Accurate and adequate explanations. Any one of the dozens of useful tips in this book pays back the few dollars it cost to buy.
As usual, I won’t reveal any of the secrets contained in the book. I got this book as I set out to market 17 books my wife has written over the last few years. Lots of common sense in these pages. Even more experience talking as Mike shares methods he has used to over come various hurtles associated with self publishing.
This is essential reading for the new publisher but also holds some shrewd cunning ideas which are sure to benefit a more experienced user. If you are even considering publishing your own book, read this first so you know exactly what you are getting into.
Purchase this book now and you’ll be certain not to regret it.
Best wishes!

“Social Networking for Authors” unlocks the revenue potentials of promoting, marketing, and selling books by using technical tools on the internet and social networking websites. Successful author and marketing specialist Michael Volkin introduces proven principles to help authors increase book sales, by unfolding step by step exactly how to use the technological tools available on the internet and how to find social networking websites to help you increase your customer base, market, and sell more books effectively without spending a fortune.
The book is divided into two parts. In Part 1, Volkin discusses a number of tips you can use to increase website traffic and boost sales. In these chapters Mike introduces a variety of free sources available on the internet which authors can use to turn their book sales into a virtual “programmed” money making machine.
In Part II Mike talks about how to sell books via social networking. He focuses on the most popular social networking sites that have the ability to drive customers to your website to open a way to sell more books.
Mike writes clearly. He converts technical terms into language that even the technically challenged can grasp the basic concepts. He also offers suggestion for sources to get help to download programs for those less computer literate or where time constraints for those with more expertise make it more practical. The more technically advanced will be rewarded by being able to quickly download information and apply the principles putting them into practice right away.
“Social Networking for Authors” is an important book for anyone wanting to increase their online presence and generate added search engine traffic to sell more books. Volkin’s writing is crisp, stimulating and the information is highly rewarding and practical
