Welcome to Bakerview Consulting!

I guide authors through the technological swamp known as social media!

 

I want to use this blog to talk about blogging and social media tips.  I’ve learned alot of things over the last few years and I want to help authors be the best they can be!  In my experience, the blogging world is an intimidating one and can be a costly one.  When I think back to what my blog looked like when I ran out of money to pay my blog designer……

 

The blog should be part of an author’s “platform”.

What is a platform?

It is the place that you launch from with your book

Just picture that…..

In all seriousness, the author’s platform is their storefront.  It represents them to their fellow authors and to their readers.  It is the point of “first impression”.  Would you walk into a store that was covered in graffiti, the door was hanging off it’s hinges and the windows were too big for the frames?

Using that analogy, why is it acceptable to have a messy blog filled with images that don’t fit their frames.  Although I’m the worst housekeeper on the face of the earth, I do understand that I need to clean when company is coming.  I’m here to help you do those little things that help you clean up you blog (and the rest of the social media platform) and make it ready for company!
