The First 7 Days After Publishing: What Authors Should REALLY Do

Most authors hit “publish” and then freeze — unsure of what to do next. But those first seven days are the most powerful window for boosting visibility, triggering algorithms, and building early momentum for your book.

Inside the How to Publish a Book Online Today workshop, we break down a simple but effective 7-day launch plan that any author can follow. No big budgets. No overcomplicated marketing. Just strategic actions that help platforms recognize your book as “active” and worth showing to more readers.

These early steps—like gathering your first reviews, driving initial clicks, and choosing the right promotional timing—set the tone for your long-term success. Even small, consistent moves during this week can trigger a snowball effect in your category.

You don’t need to go viral. You just need to start intentionally. And once you know what to do each day, the stress disappears and the momentum becomes real.
