Merflerher Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Hi folks, I'm a new member. I'm also a librarian and just thought I'd say that most public libraries have noticeboards where you can advertise book-related stuff, so rather than stick bits of paper inside library books, just ask the branch librarian to display a large flier. There's nothing more irritating than shelving books where bits of paper keep falling out:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polka Dot Rock Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 I've been popping the small flyers in any books I sell I've been hoping that someone will join up because of it and I can take the glory! Would be ace if it happened SOON tho'... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NiceguyEddie Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 I think you must be doing something right anyway Michelle: http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&hs=QI9&q=book+forum&btnG=Search&meta=cr%3DcountryUK%7CcountryGB That's how I found this one.

Polka Dot Rock Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 I've had a deluge of book orders/swaps so I've now also printed the big ones and stuck those in There's no escape! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NiceguyEddie Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Yep - and that has taken two years of hard work! Interesting. I use a specialist shopping cart company for my commercial website, which takes care of submissions and is very Google friendlky, but with the forum I'm launching (audio books as Michelle knows, so not a competitor) I'm beginning to scratch my head in terms of getting it up the search lists.

Nici Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 At work I believe that the company who designed our website also gets us up the list on google but I don't know how! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle Posted August 9, 2007 Author Share Posted August 9, 2007 There are alot of factors involved with google.. some may know some tricks, but with me, my main aim has always been to build a decent site/forum, which other people want to link to etc. What I'm pleased with is that we do pretty well on most search engines, rather than just google.

JudyB Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 Another 'well said Fireball' from me - my reading has broadened so much from visiting the forum and it's such a sociable place to be. Thanks Michelle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galactic Space Hamster Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 I just added a recommendation and link over on my site.

Galactic Space Hamster Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 I'm guessing that most of us have a personal site, so if we all added a link there to here with a quick recommendation it would probably help spread the word :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Echo Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 I actually made a flier last summer and e-mailed it to the libraries in my area, and they offered to put it up on their notice boards. That was back in July, and I went into one of the libraries in November, and it was still up on the board. Just let them know that the site is non-profit, and it should be fine.
