More on marketing your ebook

Here are a dozen more suggestions for getting the word out about your ebook..

1. Blog Pinging i.e. Ping-o-matic, Pingoat.com, Feed Shark (enter your blog address and RSS and they ping these content aggregators).

2. RSS Syndication i.e. Amazon Author Page, Goodreads Author Page (enter your blog's RSS address, and syndicate your blog content around the web).

3. Link Dump Sites i.e. Fark.com, CollegeHumor.com, Gorillamask.com

4. Blog Comments and Blog "Liking" for a link (perhaps the most effective).

5. Social Media Pinging i.e. Ping.fm (set up an account to post a message to a bunch of social media sites at once).

6. Guest Posting 7. Blog Tours

8. SEO tactics, keyword, title, anchor text optimization

9. Forum Signature Line Links

10. Social media participation (tweeting, Goodreads-ing)

11. Syndicated podcasting with open/close calls to action, text links, etc.

12. Free ebooks through Smashwords with embedded blog links

Let me know if you have any other ideas!
