How to go viral with a Kindle on Amazon. We just did it.

[Adele]

I just managed to get a book giveaway to go viral on Amazon. I've been blogging about this to help other publishers and authors as it's hard to get this kind of information online. I've done a few blog posts with exact statistics and the latest has more help as we've learnt from experience and managed it. Hope it helps you http://adeleward.blogspot.co.uk/ The book is Joe Stein's Another Man's World and there are now downloads every second on Amazon UK, so I count it as going viral now the downloads happen even if I do nothing. To get to this point it had to get high in the rankings, and the secret to that is working your way up in the categories. Hope the blog helps.

Adele, Thank you for being so specific and so generous. I hope every author on Goodreads checks out your blog. The information for promotion was some of the best I've seen.

[Adele]

I'm so glad it helped.

[Judith]

I'm going to give it a try. And good luck with your own book!

[Adele]

Thank you. It has led to sales for Joe's books, both the one that was given away and also the next in series. It has also led to high website traffic so it has been worth all the work!

[Judith]

Congratulations. Wish you many more successes in the future!

Hope it helps you all. I'm planning a giveaway of another author on February 14th and think I'll try to do a giveaway a month.
