Billy Chitwood (brchitwoodgmailcom) | 46 comments Jason, I'm so confused in this digital world --- I'm an 'old dog learning new tricks': what I've been doing for Goodreads writers is clicking on the book link, 'liking' it, and then hitting the twitter and facebook icons for distribution...guess I assumed I was 'tagging.'
Feel rather stupid but tell me what tagging means...and how to do it. I've been writing books and not concentrating too much on these promotional things until lately.
Thanks.

Sterling Gate Books (sterlinggatebooks) | 37 comments Hi Billy - Tagging simply means going on the Amazon page of any title and clicking the "tags" which every book has.

I'm learning as I go, too. If you look at your Amazon page for The Cracked Mirror (paperback) under the reviews, you have some good tags that seem to fit your novel well. If not, you can add others that are better suited. Think of tags like search terms that could help readers find your books online. See the numbers next to your tags? If I click "agree with tags" beside them, it will increase the numbers beside the tags. Some of your other books don't have them. Believe me, this stuff was all gibberish to me until a month ago.

Sterling Gate Books (sterlinggatebooks) | 37 comments Hi All,
Have just caught up on all your latest tag requests. i.e. Tagged and liked the latest books and author pages provided above by Jason, Billy, J.C Henderson, Kevin, Scott, John Podlaski, John Stipa, Michael, Susan, Jay, Apostolate, Marcelle, Ruby, DeLeetra, Darnell, Julian, Al, Brian, Nicole, Tower Lowe, Una Tiers, Annie, Massimo, Diana, Sara, Arthur, Carol and Vickie.

Here's ours, The Ninth Orphan: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0056I4FKC
The book's Amazon page could use a bit of love, so if anyone can LIKE some of the 5 star reviews and/or dislike the few negative reviews it has received, that would be greatly appreciated. Not too worried about tags, it's more likes for the title's positive reviews that we are seeking. Many thanks.

Vickie, just added "Goodreads author" and "Goodreads" as additional tags to your titles - hope that's okay. Also liked your good reviews.

Billy Chitwood (brchitwoodgmailcom) | 46 comments Hello everyone,

Don't know if this is the right spot to be asking, but I shall anyway: please visit 'my blog' on Goodreads. Because of my digital incompetence, thirteen of my posts did not, for whatever reason, end up at the blog site on Goodreads. THEY are all there now, and I'm hoping it is convenient for you to take a look at all of some of them. You might enjoy them --- then again, who knows? (Somehow, one post got copied three times, so please pardon the duplication --- that post is titled,"Soliloquy To A Boarding House Cook.")

Sixteen posts will show, but there are only thirteen as of this date.

My best to everyone.

Billy Ray Chitwood

Leila Summers (leilasummers) | 63 comments I’ve been catching up since I’ve last visited. Thanks to everyone who’s tagged me so far!

Liked, tagged and yes’d reviews where applicable for you C.J. (all 3), Jody, Annie (all 4), Jason (all 4 and added UK tags copied from US), Billy (added tags on your memoir), David (UK added tags), Marcelle, Vickie (new one), J.C. (paperback) and John (both – your links didn’t work for me but I found you)!

Here’s a review that I would love anyone to mark YES as helpful too, thanks!
http://www.amazon.com/review/RUJHKBEA...

If you are able to like on Amazon UK, I’d appreciate any YES’s to good reviews on there too –
http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/146376359X

And if anyone is able to tag and like on Amazon CA, my book is sadly lacking support there –

Hi charity, my first novel The Legend of Finndragon's Curse is a YA fantasy adventure available as an ebook. I'd love it if you could review it on Amazon as well as GR. I could send you a free PDF copy if you're uninterested.

Thank you.

Hi Charity, my children's book is called Brenna and the Horses of Lusayana and it's a mystery adventure that adults seem to like as well as children.

If you'd like to review it I'll send you a Smashwords coupon code. I don't mind where you review it.

Also now have all tags on all my nine books. If anyone is up to it, will appreciate your liking and tagging at goo.gl/203Yg (amazon.com) and goo.gl/8Gfsd (amazon.uk.com - I owe you all a lot! Thanks very much if you choose to 'like' and 'tag.'
