Hi All!
I am sorting out future promotion and have a couple of questions about the best way to use websites to promote books. Specifically, in the case of a (to be published) book that is the first of a series, is it best to set up a website for that specific book (as in secure its domain name and build the site), or is it better to create the website based around the entire series name, and secure a domain name based on the series name? Or both? Anyone have experience with this?
Also, I already have an author website, so I'm also curious about the SEO advantages of a book/series having its own separate site. Is it more advantageous to have a "book" or "series" site, rather than to create pages on either or both from my existing domain? I don't want to convolute things, and I definitely don't want yet another thing to have to keep up with. But if it's better SEO logic I'd rather separate it all out now than have to rewrite websites later.
I appreciate your insight and hope all are well!
