Review: Sorry, not worth $5
Rating: 3 out of 5

Sorry, but this was not worth $5. Not even if you are a beginner. Why?-The author uses affiliate links that they profit off of so why the high price? Also, this seems to be a marketing vehicle for them (see my twitter page for an example, here are my books etc...) so I don't get why the high cost of entry.-There's a disproportionate amount of time spent on the affiliate software programs vs. actual information. Very internet market-y. Also there wasn't a clear, concise explanation of what the software did. Just lots of marketing hype and you had to keep reading to figure out what it did. It needs a succinct explanation when it's first introduced.-The information is basic with a few interesting tidbits here and there, but nothing worth $5 or that can't be found elsewhere.At a lower price, I would have given a different review, but for $5 I expected a lot more value for my money.I think the Let's Get Digital guide would be a better place to start.Let's Get Digital: How To Self-Publish, And Why You ShouldBy the way, there's a free pdf version of Let's Get Digital on the author's website (and no, I'm not affiliated in any way).Lastly, for the author, you have a few typos that spellcheck won't catch. Got to vs. go to. That kind of thing. This was not factored into the star rating, but I did want to let the author know.Michelle
