If you are doing a page promotion on Facebook restrict your target audience through location targeting. This helps you target only specific countries where your book will sell. Also from what I've seen, countries like India and Bangladesh are home to click farms which tend to influence your promotions. Try to leave them out as much as possible.

Elle Pierre A book progress widget? Something like this: http://www.authormedia.com/all-produc...

Only it could be coded into multiple platforms via html (blogger, tumblr, etc.) and not just WordPress. That would be great!

Mike MacDee (mikemacdee) | 2 comments An Amazon reviewer search widget. Too many of them don't have contact info, and it's a pain in the ass going through hundreds of names and thousands of suitable reviews only to find there's no way to reach them. Add to that the fact that most of them won't get back to me anyway, and you've got an author who wonders why he even bothered in the first place.

There's something like this idea provided by another author marketing service but I can't remember the name. I think it's a pretty commonly used one. You have to be an elite member to use the widget or something.
