Never fails to elicit a smile and even audible chuckles. I know I would follow the arrows. Here is one cheap advertising bit I've stated on other post's comments here at Bookshop Blog and I'll state it again. To draw a bit of internet traffic to your website make sure when you comment on other peoples blogs, any new websites with stories that interest you or any other website be sure to put a link to your site if they have the spot for it. I get a few hits a day from this. I can't point to any sales from it but who knows. Also trading links with friends will put your (and their) website higher in the search engine pecking order.

A bookseller colleague way up in the U.P. (Michigan's upper peninsula, north of the Mackinac Bridge) puts out a little sign by the highway, BOOKS, to lure book-lovers onto her side road. When I give directions to her place, I always tell people to look for the BOOKS sign. Don’t know how the village officials would respond if I tried this, but the picture made me smile.
