For Book Authors: Now People Can "Like" Your Amazon Book Page

Thanks to Aggie Villanueva at www.visualartsjunction.com I learned that people can now "like" your book page.

I immediately went to my Amazon author page to test this out. And based on my own Amazon items, this option is currently only for actual books and not for books on Kindle or blogs on Kindle.

After you "like" a book page, you can send an update about this to your Facebook account or a tweet to your Twitter account or an email to a friend whose email address you know.

And speaking of Amazon and Aggie Villanueva, read her very informative blog post "How I Got Two Kindle Best Sellers This Year by Choosing My Categories Wisely". I'm following her advice through the maze that is Amazon's opportunities for authors, and so far I've gotten the categories added correctly to about 50% of my Amazon listings.

(I haven't heard back for days on my request to fix the categories that are still incorrect. Imagine putting my novel MRS. LIEUTENANT in the men's adventure sub-category when the book is about women and friendship!)
