Support GR Authors (Eg. Amazon Tagging) Showing 1-50 of 3,429

[Vincent, Group Founder]

This folder is designed to help support our fellow Goodreads authors. All tips are welcome!

One great example is a feature known as Amazon tagging. Amazon basically assigns keywords for books to help readers discover them within genre categories. The more votes a keyword gets--eg. science fiction--the higher the book will appear on the keyword book list.

I've seen tagging on a number of groups and I think it helps out.

For all GR Authors who would like to participate, feel free to add your book to this post as well as four keywords you'd like tagged. (And please don't forget to tag the books in the post above you.)

My book has four main tags:
Fiction
Science Fiction
Young Adult
Childrens Books (as spelled here)

Here is the Amazon link (you’ll see the keywords if you scroll down a little): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1934...

Hi Delyse,

I was having problems with your link.

I'll tag your book if you can fix it.

Thanks

I don't know why the link doesn't work. I'm not sure how to fix it. Any suggestions?

Try visiting your Amazon site, copying the link, and pasting it again. Sometimes it works to redo it.

Tagging a book really helps get it in front of customers. Would anyone mind tagging my books on Amazon as well?

Thanks Gary and Vincent.

[Vincent, Group Founder]

Thanks, Guido!

Would you like us to tag your book?

I tried the links on your Goodreads book site, but received an error.

[Guido]

Vincent, thanks for the offer. That would be great. I am not sure why those links to Amazon do not work on my Goodreads page, I'll have to look into that.

For the time being, yes, please feel free, everyone, to tag my books here

Thanks Delyse, but I haven't written anything... well, two short stories for my kids never published, and one very short story that was published in the local paper. Inspiration seems to be getting closer, though.

Thank you so much, Betty

Since I am not a submitted or published author, if anyone wants to see how my writing skills are at the moment, since I'm not an author, here is a link to a 1-page short story about the day my Dad came home from the war. I wrote it from the point of view of a five-year-old. This was published in our local paper in Remembrance Week 2009:
Bagpipe Memories

[Jaleta]

I'd appreciate tags for mine:

Thanks!
(I'll tag yours as I find them...)

[Delyse]

Hi Betty,
Thanks so much for tagging our books. Keep writing!
Being published will happen for you I'm sure.

Hey all-

If you could tag mine I would appreciate it. I will come back around and tag all of yours when I get home, for some reason my work computer blocks amazon.
