Internet Exposure for Travel Writers
As a travel writer, you are undoubtedly aware that the Internet is an excellent medium through which you can promote your work. But how can you achieve success? Social Networking? A blog? Your own website?
The answer is actually Yes to all 3 questions.
So how can Chevinside help?
We can provide a low cost (and environmentally friendly) web site. It is possible for you to start with just a domain name and web hosting at just £35 per year. That will give you access to a control panel through which you can install your own travel blog, build your own website or discussion board and ecommerce to sell your books online.
As a bonus, we will also be happy to advise on the best ways to get your blog noticed by the search engines.
Alternatively, we can design and host your own web site, however simple or sophisticated. The benefit of this is that we have the know-how to make it extremely search engine friendly. And we have plenty of contacts in the travel and book publishing industries that can be used to help get your site to the top of the search engines and get your books published. In short, we can offer the whole package, website, proofreading, publishing all under one roof ...
We have a variety of standard web design packages, however, we realise that your site should be as unique as your writing so please give us a call or drop us a line to discuss what we can do for you as a travel writer, please call 0114 360 1004 or visit our pricing section. Our quotes are free and with no obligation. We do not pressure you for your business after the quote.
Socialise
Through Twitter and Facebook in particular, you can cultivate your existing fan base and perhaps pick up a few new readers. A travel writer's blog gives you the opportunity to express yourself quickly and easily in a way that social networking can't. You can allow comments on your posts and increase interactivity (the principle driving force of what has become known as 'Web 2.0').
Gain Exposure
Having your own website can enable you to reach a much wider audience. You can promote your books by releasing a few illustrations and the best snippets of your books.
If you are a new travel writer, you are probably finding it tough going to get reconised. Travel Writing competitions are a real lottery as the winner is chosen very subjectively. If the judges are in the right mood when they read your entry, great. But most entrants will be passed over but at least you can put your name about. However, if you have your own website, you can establish a presence and build your authority.
Promote Yourself
If you write for magazines, your website can act as a powerful CV for your work where you can let your words and achievements speak for themselves.
