However, I have had good success with keeping my lone book in KDP Select for now while I'm working on the second. The rankings and sales do fluctuate greatly in between promos but I believe the book has gotten exposure and sales it wouldn't have gotten if KDP Select hadn't helped it gain visibility.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05297177380496383805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-657651179057069107.post-4799563256006342972012-10-24T13:49:20.431-05:002012-10-24T13:49:20.431-05:00My experience is that unless you have at least 7 b...My experience is that unless you have at least 7 books - the KDP Select success will be minimal. With 7 books you can offer enough free days each week to boost the rankings all week long. That's just been my own experience with it.Lorihttp://www.laramsey.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-657651179057069107.post-31439352684489957982012-09-09T20:31:01.379-05:002012-09-09T20:31:01.379-05:00With Amazon's market share, your book doesn...With Amazon's market share, your book doesn't have to be a new release to be promoted effectively with the KDP Select program. There are always new customers available to increase your fan base. <br /><br />Take care, Jai--how's the new book going?<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05297177380496383805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-657651179057069107.post-56803753492288158962012-09-05T19:16:06.423-05:002012-09-05T19:16:06.423-05:00My book is available on kindle and I keep it there...My book is available on kindle and I keep it there because it's good to have it available as an easy download for ebook readers. It's available all over the world too, which is great. I haven't tried any of the free day promotional events so haven't seen how those work out but you make good points about how they can be positive but also negative.<br /><br />JaiJai Joshihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04858987106548357551noreply@blogger.com
