A Call to Bookstores: Take Time to Blog
All bookstores oughta be blogging. That’s what I think. I love books; what writer doesn’t? And I spend waaaayy too much time and money in bookstores. So, when I came across this bookstore blog, I paused. Here’s a bookstore (Powell’s Books in Portland,
Makes sense to me that a bookstore, full of people who love reading, books and writing would have a blog. And now, when I pop into other bookstore sites, I wonder, why don’t they have blogs?
They’re missing out on a terrific sales tool. And one that’s virtually free.
So far, no one has been able to answer the question, and I’m searching the far corners of the continent to find good bookstore blogs.
yours, Judith

Well, there are different ways to blog such as a yahoo group site that I am just developing for my bookstore……sunvalleybookvideo and pop that into the yahoo group search ………you will find me. It is designed for posting so how would blogging be different?

Good thing to explore. Not everything has to be a blog; I firmly agree with you there, Diane. So, I’ll have to ask my SEO expert pals to check into this more. But here’s what I found. Google did not find Sun Valley Book when I entered sun valley book and video. So, as of yet, we can’t find you via google. (you can’t be googled., oh no!)
And when I went to my Yahoo search, I found your wonderful bookstore (I know it’s wonderful; I’ve been there.) found it only in yellow pages. So, a girl has to know to go to yahoo group search to find the page. I’m afraid I didn’t find it there either. I must be doing something wrong. — oh. I found it by typing in exactly sunvalleybookvideo… will the site be listed at some point so outsiders can find it? That would be my concern.
