How do I promote my free ebook for email mkt?

I have a blog which is about 2 week old i think and I am just posting content on it, did not try to get traffic yet. I have written a book on health niche which is same as my blog post. I mean whatever I posted on my blog, I am also creating a book with it..

So my question is when I give this book for free should i tell them to subscribe to my blog? I am thinking about using fiverr to let people be aware of book.

If I tell them come to my blog and subscribe and get my free book, Is it good idea or it will take them so much time?

Can you tell me how can i give away my book and also have subscriber for my channel? But I will also have the same content and little more on my blog too.

Thank you

    It's not a good idea, stay focused on building your blog first, it's your treasure, create good content with some keywords, (not too much) then add your e-book to the sidebar of your blog with attractive cover and design, you can search for professional or free e-book cover creators, just google it, so you will give your e-book for free in exchange for emails subscription, I know that you don't get much traffic now, but if you focus on promoting your articles in social networks, twitter...etc and connect with people, plus traffic from Google, you will start receiving quality visitors to your blog and create your list. ( Fiverr users won't visit your blog to download e-books)
    Good Luck.

      Thank you... I wanted to use fiverr gig like tweeting my product, or blogging about free book related to my niche, It will be like people from my niche not fiverr..I hope it makes sense...But you are right I think i should focus on blog first and then think about subscriber.
      Thank you

    I would suggest writing a free report that is related to your topic but not an exact copy of the material already on your blog. Answer a question or give tips in the free book.

    Then, you can promote the book by placing it in your sidebar, giving it away in giveaways, and by adding it in your forum signatures (assuming you are a member of some that are related to your blog's niche).

    Rather than asking people to subscribe to your blog within the free ebook, start building a mailing list. Offer the free book in exchange for their email address. That way, you have a direct connection with your subscribers -- rather than just hoping they come back to read your blog later.

      Thank you... what I was thinking that if i have a book with content same as my blog and if i tweet my free ebook to many twitter in health niche and when they get my book..I can write in book to visit my website for more content like this. But i think if they go there and they see the same content..they might not be very happy.I think..
      Thank you
