Thanks to Lillie Ammann, one of our associates at AON, I was alerted to Joe Wikert’s post about Authors On The Net. You can see Joe’s blog by clicking here. (http://jwikert.typepad.com/the_average_joe/2008/01/authorsonthenet.html)

I actually found Joe’s site month’s ago and have been there off and on. One of the tactics we discuss on Authors On The Net is to use online PR services to let people know about your book. On Wednesday last week we launched our first Press Release using PR Web and that morning Joe put up a post about AON. For the next three days we had about 10 new members joining each day. I’m excited to see what happens over the next couple of weeks.

One goal authors have when using the Internet is that you hope your book goes “viral” which is simply saying you hope bloggers and other people online and offline interested in your topic will talk about you. You can read more about Online press releases by going to the promote your book section. Good luck.
