Tomorrow begins my much anticipated Kindle Nation Daily
sponsorship for AFTER. I bought this sponsorship nearly three months ago before
the whole KND frenzy began. Since then, they have incorporated a new
sponsorship ad page that makes it much easier for authors to sponsor. http://indie.kindlenationdaily.com/?page_id=642
The benefits of sponsorship are many, including the possibility of the book
going viral and thousands of copies sold. When I first heard about KND, they
were still small and getting sponsorship space was for the elite. But now, I
wonder if the ad will have the same effect and influence. Supposedly, just a
single KND sponsorship can raise your Amazon ranking by hundreds, if not thousands.
I guess we’ll see. Also, as I’ve said before, don’t bother with the pay per
click ads on Goodreads, they have done almost nothing for sales. Also, I’m
having a little trouble trying to figure out if signing with Substance Books
has had any effect on sales. I am selling way more copies of my other books
than the book, AFTER, that I have Substance Books working on. I like Hajni, who
runs Substance, and I believe she has writer’s interests at heart, but I still
haven’t seen any results. I know she does things with search engine
optimization that take time to work, but I don’t know if I can justify zero
sales for the month for AFTER, but dozens of sales for my other books not
represented. I’m not going to not recommend Substance, but I will post the true
results when I see them.
Just for fun, I’ve posted a picture of my new tattoo. And
yes… it hurt like hell.
