Here is a list of some of the new types of content that will appear on AALBC.com (AALBC.org is the test site): http://aalbc.com/aalbccom-is-being-upgraded.html

I wanted to take advantage of the $50.00 for 50 days offer, Troy,  but - I didn't get it.  What is it i'm purchasing on the check out page and how do I pay for it??? (Old people like me need specific instructions.)

Hi Cynique, sorry for the delayed response.  I working on a profile page that ties in each writers, books, articles and reviews on the website.  I'm using your profile as a test case: http://aalbc.it/conniebradley since you have all three.

Why thank you for taking advantage of the promotional deal.  Of course I have to throw something in extra for you :-)

Basically you follow the link: http://aalbc.it/1dollarperday that will take you to square (sort of like PayPal but with a nicer setup), then you click the blue "Add to Basket" button that is all it takes.  Thanks!

Hi Troy, this is great. I am working on getting my books published and appropriately priced as soon as possible--I can hardly wait. How long does this promotion last and how often is it repeated. I hate missing out on the good stuff. Love this!!!

Thank you, Troy! ( I'd almost for gotten about those books I reviewed.)  I really appreciate your giving me the "something special", not to mention an easy way to keep my book out there because trying to promote it on my own calls for more energy and enthusiasm than I can muster nowadays. So - what I'm purchasing from aalbc is a service in the format of buying a book. Right?  Okaaaay. I'm on it!

Also, I would like to include the link to my web site somewhere in the pitch.

Thanks again!

 

 

 

@Shirley Gale, the promotion will last until I roll out the new website design (more info).  I'm not sure how I will position these type of book ads on the new website. I want to keep the lower priced options available to advertisers, but I just not sure how that will be done on the new website, I'd like to make the main pages, including the homepage a lot less clutter than they are now.

@Cynique oh that one is easy, I'll just link your book's cover to your Blog.  I just added the a link to your blog from your Author Profile page.  To be clear, this service is getting your book cover on the aalbc.com homepage and the books main page for 50 days (not counting whatever extra I throw for being Cynique ).  Thanks for your support.

Thanks Troy, I'll keep watching for updates and developments. I might miss this opportunity, but hopefully, I will be ready for the next one.
