Book Indexing For Authors

How to create a professional nonfiction index in Word

An index could be the thing your book is missing.
Take a look in a library or bookstore and you will find few nonfiction books that don’t have indexes. That’s because publishers know how important the presence of an index is to readers – and therefore how vital it is for sales.
Indies often don’t realize this – and miss out on potential sales and potential good reviews.
A book index is like a guidepost or map for your readers. It tells them what to expect from your book, where to find topics that interest them, and – importantly – what isn’t in the book. This means that it reduces the chances of poor reviews and increases the chances of positive reviews.
An index helps usability, which makes it more useful to readers.If you are an author thinking of creating your own index, you’re in good company.
