Those of you who are curious about
whether Amazon book rankings are a good measure of selling success might be
interested in this story:
On January 30th, my Amazon
ranking was 352,039. Two days later two of my books were sold through
Amazon—just two (as far as I can tell), but within just hours of each other.
My Amazon ranking shot to 6,093.
So it’s kind of cool to find yourself
with a high ranking, but it’s not a measure that you’re rolling in new readers.
Just the same, I’ll still shoot for
number one when “No Campfire, Girls” comes
up in a couple of months!
That's curious to say the least...
ReplyDeleteI'm not in the mood to be curious. I'm just.... bemused.
DeleteI've found the rankings rarely match the actual sales figures.
ReplyDeleteThat's what I've been hearing all along .... I guess this is proof.
DeleteYeah. It's crazy how that works.
ReplyDeleteAs if we didn't have enough crazy in the world!
