John Kremer’s Secret Seven and Super Seven Series
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Secret Seven series features high-traffic websites that most book authors ignore (or more likely don’t even know about!). And that’s a shame, because these high-traffic, high-involvement sites offer incredible exposure, great traffic, and the kind of real-life link-backs that Google loves).
If you connect with these Secret Seven websites, you will sell more books right away – and for a long time to come.
The Secret Seven: Book One – Book One of The Secret Seven actually features a collection of websites that any author should create relationships with. Not all 75 websites listed in this report are right for every author, but 3 to 6 sites would be perfect for you. You can select the sites by their size of audience (as measured
by Alexa) and by their relevance to your book. Only $12.
You can create working relationships with these key websites in as little as 5 minutes a day.

The Super Seven series features the top seven social networks that every author should join, create an interesting profile for, and then act on at least several times a week.
The Super Seven: Pinterest – How to Use Pinterest to Promote Your Book, Supercharge Your Website, and Build More Traffic to Your Blog or Website – $12
The Super Seven: LinkedIn – How to Use LinkedIn to Promote Yourself as an Author, Find Promotional Partners, and Build Long-Lasting and Useful Relationships – $12
