What is your book and how long has it been out?
For my part, I've set up Google alerts with key words (like Civil War or Militia), and inserted my opinion into discussions wherever I can (and where appropriate). Yahoo Answers is a favorite, because, based on the question being asked, I can often cite my book as the source material (just posted one on Cultural Marxism the other day). Whenever I do so, I always put in a signature line with a link to the Amazon book.
Facebook and Twitter, of course. I update to them via my blog, which I write on several times each week. And the link is on my book trailer on youtube, and in every email I send out.
Basically, it means putting a link to your book in every conceivable place.
And dare I say it, for Amazon, I'm active on the Kindle boards forum, as well as this one. That helps drive sales, too.
