Quantum (quantumkatana) If you don't then, go set them up now! Readers check them for other books that the author has written. I'm one of those readers who does just that!

Tip: the article says that google chrome Translate feature does a great job of translating from Japanese to English. So you could use that feature when creating your Japanese Author Central page.

I do! Here's me! https://www.amazon.com/Jennifer-Reinf...

And I agree, it is a very good idea to have one.

Neil Carstairs | 53 comments I've got UK and US but this is another bugbear with Amazon, why can't they populate across all marketplaces? I appreciate language differences but a simple note that all author pages will be in the source language unless the author changes it would be a great help.

Justin (justinbienvenue) I never considered setting up my Author Page on Amazon for other countries because I just assumed they either translated to other countries automatically or didn't think anything of it.

If it's easy to do then I'm all for it.

J.J. Mainor | 2440 comments I claimed a few last year after I sold one book in France and it shot to #15 in English language horror...

What's a bigger complaint than the fact that your page doesn't automatically translate across all their platforms is that not every platform supports the author's page. A few of the countries where I wanted to set it up wouldn't offer it.
