Get access to FREE book publishing tools, resources, and a growing online community of authors. Learn how.

One of the reasons I use CreateSpace to publish my books is that I can get them up on Amazon quickly. Since Amazon is the top online bookstore in the worled, you can do quite well financially selling your books there. You can also do quite a lot of other stuff there if you have products to sell.

However, I use CreateSpace for my books. The reason is that they have so many tools to help me with my books. I especially like the tools they offer to help with book covers.

There’s more, but if you’re an author, and you want to publish your books, I would recommend you go here.

Publish and sell your book, music or film on Amazon.com and other channels using free tools from CreateSpace. Get started.

Google Book Search is one of the lesser known of the Google properties. If you’re an author looking for additional exposure for your book, or you want to know what books are in the public domain, then this site is for you.

What Google Book Search allows you to do is to include your book in this special search engine. When readers type in keywords that are related to your topic, or related to information within your book, your book will show up.

Google also includes reference pages related to the books they offer. This provides additional content for your readers to read, but it also allows your readers to see if there are any reviews, web references, maps, or other content related to your book.

There’s also a way for readers to find out how they can get your book, whether they want to buy it or check it out from their local library.

Your first step in getting started with this program is to sign up for an account with Google, which is free. Go to the resource section for Book search and read the section titled “Resources for publishers and authors.” This will help you more fully understand the program and do a better job of setting up your listing.

Google also offers several downloads you may download and read at your leisure that further explain their different promotional programs, including Book Search. (Don’t neglect understanding how this program works. It will help you sell more books.)

When you are ready to submit, you need to sign into your account. Unlike some of Google’s other programs, this one requires that you apply for an additional account. Submitting to Book Search is not part of your basic Google account.

You will need to complete the application to add Google Book Search to your Google account.

If you are an author who published your book through a publisher, you will want to check with your publisher first. Your publisher may already have a Book Search account, or there may be something in your agreement that prevents you from submitting to Book Search.

Once your application is approved, then start submitting your books. Make sure you follow the terms and conditions of the program, as well as reading any additional material that Google offers.

The purpose of this program is to help you sell more books. If you’re really serious about making more money from your books, you’ll want to use this program, and best of all, it’s free.
