Blog Repost Policy and Permission

I have been fielding questions about republishing posts from Marketing Tips For Authors on a case-by-case basis, which has prompted this public policy statement of permission.

I created Marketing Tips For Authors to help current and aspiring authors find low cost/no cost ways they can spread the word about their books. These posts include tips, relevant book reviews, expert guest articles, and links to other tips I find may be useful to my readers.

If you see something that you would like to include in your newsletter or blog, you may use the entire text as long as these are included with the post:

1. By Tony Eldridge, creator of Marketing Tips For Authors.
2. A hyperlink to my blog, Marketing Tips For Author:
http://blog.marketingtipsforauthors.com/ or preferably back to the original post you use.

If you wish to reprint a post from a guest author, please contact that author for permission. If the author grants permission, please link to their post on this blog.

For those who want it, here are some optional items you may wish to include in the post:


Bio:

Tony Eldridge is the author of the action/adventure book, The Samson Effect, that Clive Cussler calls a "first rate thriller brimming with intrigue and adventure" and the Twitter marketing book, Conducting Effective Twitter Contests which helps people find targeted Twitter followers. He also shares his book marketing tips with fellow authors through his blog, Marketing Tips For Authors,  and through his free video marketing tips for authors.

Blog Praise

"Tony's Blog has been a valuable resource to me as I got started marketing my first nationally published book. I subscribe to the rss feed and always gain something new from each post. It is as if I am enrolled in a marketing class for new authors on line. Tony's posts are always written in easy to understand terms and he gives step by step instructions. If you are a new author or wanting to become one, I highly recommend you follow Tony's advice and subscribe to his blog. You will not regret it. It's like taking a course for free!"- Dawn Stephens, Author and Illustrator, The Little Pot Series

What people are saying about our free marketing video tips

Let me just tell you... Your archive tip on linking a photo to another page where people can buy your book was so incredibly helpful and amazingly clear that you now have a real fan. SO smart to take away the fear that so many have of HTML. I followed it to the letter and posted a link on my blog today. Have a look. It's all because of you.
