  FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)
How do I upload my book to my website? How do I link the book in a webpage?
 
Uploading your book to your website is best answered by your web hosting
company as everyone has a different setup. But linking to a book is simple,
just link to the file. It is the same thing as if you would link to a ZIP file for people to download from your website. e.g. the raw HTML would be something like this,

<a href="http://www.mywebsite.com/mybook.exe">download my book</a>

It might also be a good idea to put a warning for Netscape users to
SHIFT+CLICK the link if they have trouble downloading it.

Please also note that some webhosts may not allow downloads of EXEs (ask
them) so try putting it in as a zip file as well.

It's also a good idea to provide a variety of formats for people to choose
to download from.

e.g.

Please download my book now:
EXE format
http://www.mywebsite.com/mybook.exe

Zip version
http://www.mywebsite.com/mybook.zip

Or DNL version but remember you need to download the reader first!
http://www.mywebsite.com/mybook.dnl

Download DNL reader
http://digitalwebbooks.com/reader/

Note: the publish to web wizard will also upload the book to your website using FTP and create a page in which the book will appear.
