Everly Anders | 42 comments Everyone has a blog these days. Unfortunately, most of them are just being read by the authors friends and family. An author's time is precious. If your blog is not getting people to read your book, then it is useless. Here is a blog post to help you attract readers to your blog.

Hey Elle, very insightful post. I also read your other one about Goodreads, its really made me think. I do have a question though, I have a website that pertains mainly to my book and I have a blog section but its not really a big focus, do I write more on my blog and treat it like a blog post? Just thought id get your insight.

That depends on how much time you have, what you have to say, and if you care that much. If you're not looking for high traffic or your life is already really busy, then I would not bother. On the other hand, if you feel like you have a lot of interesting things to say, and time to promote it, then you might think about it.
