  5. Geez, I never thought of that!

    Looking for innovative ways to attract users to your site? What about this:

    BookBrowse recently announced the launch of a unique new concept at their web site. BookBrowse publishes excerpts from popular USA bestsellers, as well as many top fiction and non-fiction titles. Because BookBrowse includes an excerpt of every title it's like being able to browse books in a bookstore, without leaving the comfort of your home or office. In addition to excerpts, there are book summaries, author biographies and reviews. BookBrowse also includes previews of many books before they are published. As one visitor said "its the closest thing online to holding the book in my own hands".
