Uploading a Book to Promote Your Website

I just finished translating from English into Hebrew Dr. Asher Eder’s book The Star of David, which was published in 1987 in Jerusalem by Rubin Mass Ltd.
I asked the publisher to let me publish the book in English as well and he agreed.

Before uploading the English version of the book to my English website I had around 30 visitors a day. After uploading the book I have around 100 visitors a day, and my blog started appearing third in Yahoo Search Engine Results Page for keywords STAR OF DAVID (out of 80,500,000 results).

I’m sure that there are millions of such old books that were not published on the WWW. They are not selling anymore but they have very important content in any conceivable subject. All you have to do is persuade the publisher to let you upload the book in exchange to credits and links to his website.

BTW if many Web Masters will embrace my proposal and upload books to promote their websites it will enrich the WWW with quality content. It is a win-win situation…
