Goodreads Authors/Readers discussion

While I'm pretty sure that if you're capable of negotiating Goodreads you'll have no trouble with Facebook, but I've come across a handful of people recently who weren't sure how to do this most essential of things. So here's my picture-based step by step guide.

Thanks. I've been thinking I need to do this, and this is motivation and direction.

Many thanks. I've been unsure of what kind of page to set up for a book, etc.

Thanks so much for sharing this, Chris. I have to get busy one of these days and set up a Facebook page for my writing. Your guide will be very helpful in doing this.

Thanks for posting this. The how-to link for setting up the store is awesome!

Thanks to your informative post, Chris, I've set myself up on Facebook today! Your tips were very helpful.

Glad you all found it useful. Looking back on the 18 months I've been doing this its easy to forget that stuff I think is easy now I once found really difficult. I hope these blogs can save people some of the time I spent figuring them out.

Thanks, Thomas! Glad you liked it - that one was an absolute beast to do but it's helped a lot of people so that's cool.

Chris, I'm having trouble adding the amazon link to my page. I have the static html and the associates account, now (thank you!) but when I go into my account and click on the aStore I can't find the 'category pages' in the sidebar or anywhere else. Am I missing a step? I tend to be pretty unsavy.

Hey RA, I'm stuck at work with just the iPhone for net right now but I'll have a look for you when I get home. I know the Zon tend to play around with stuff sometimes. Perhaps they've moved the button.

Well, it turned out that I did something wrong earlier in the process. At least, I think so. I think I told them the wrong kind of site. There wasn't an option for facebook, so I guessed. Wrong. So they denied my 'application', saying that they only allow facebook and something else, I forget what. So I'll try to go back through and figure it out. My son has a couple appointments tomorrow that may keep me busy, but I'll get to it when I get the chance. Thanks so much for your help. I'll probably be on here asking questions again :).

No worries, I hope it works for you! Was that when you set up the affiliates thing? Let me know if there's anything I can help you with.

Thank you, Chris.
