Hello,
I am very new here. I am interested in giving some short ebooks free that would bring more readers to my books. I am just exploring the ways of doing it. One way is going through smashwords and I have already done that.
I am considering uploading an ebook with affiliate link (reference to the books that I consider important to read more on that subject). According to smashwords guidelines, I understand, I cannot use any affiliate links.
I see, there is an option to upload ebook here in this forum. Is it ok if I upload a book with affiliate link. I could not find any instruction on that or I did not use right keyword to figure it out. If such uploads are accepted, could I link it to other sites providing direct download link to that uploaded book?
I would also be happy to know where others are storing their books with affiliate links. Many suggest scribd. Is it agreeable to store a document with affiliate links there? I read somewhere that some faced problem because of that and their account was terminated. Kindly suggest some sites that would be suitable. Google docs is a good way to go? will it contradict with their TOS in any means? Could I provide a direct download link from google doc to other sites?
Sorry to bother with basic questions. I am not aware of the TOS of many sites. It really takes time to read those big documents.
