In this digital age, you don’t have to leave your desk in order to go on a book tour. Book blog tours will give you as much exposure and reader engagement, and they’re much easier to set up.<\/p>\n
Instead of traveling from bookshop to bookshop across the world, let your book make the virtual circuit by contacting book blogs and requesting them to feature your book in a guest post written by you. Each blog you harness is a tour stop.<\/p>\n
For maximum impact, have these posts scheduled within a given timeframe of 7-14 days. The more good blogs involved, the better. An ideal time for your tour would be the release of your new book.<\/p>\n
Here are some ideas for the various guest posts you might need:<\/p>\n
Blog touring is all about making a connection with new readers. \u00a0On the one hand, be pleasant, respectful, and charming. On the other, let your personality and quirks shine through your writing. You’re not talking to the masses. You’re addressing each and every reader at eye level and making them feel appreciated.<\/p>\n
Make a good impression, and they’ll hop on your fan wagon and stay with you for the ride.<\/p>\n
Good luck!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","categories":[37,20],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/refiction.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/articles\/801"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/refiction.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/articles"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/refiction.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/articles"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/refiction.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/803"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/refiction.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=801"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/refiction.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=801"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
