Great Questions. Both the front and back over are very important and they both have to be as strong as each other. Also a photo of the author definitely helps for non-fiction books, as it makes you seem important and increases your expert positioning. But you need to have a good quality, professional photo – otherwise it will have a negative affect. Thanks again Connor for your comments. Talk more soon, Dale

Hehe, I love the little random things in your vids Dale. Just thought you should know . Anyway I been wondering whether the front or back cover is more important? Also I never really understood why authors put pictures of themselves on the back or inside the back cover. Is there any particular reason for it? Does it help sales or something? I'm not knowing :S
