This is a great thread! I have a print and e-book version of my novel, but neither is doing very well on Amazon. I've only had 3 or 4 people tag it, so if anyone here would like to help me out, I'd appreciate it! It's A Woman's Way by Sofia Diana Gabel, about 19th century French feminist Maria Deraismes who fought for equality and became the first female Freemason.

Hi Kevin - I don't see where to tag on the Goodreads pages you provided links to. Are your books on Amazon? If you want people to tag them on Amazon, please provide the links. Thanks!

Thanks for the link, it does make it easier.
Hey folks, I've been doing tags in the "Amazon clicks" thread but it seems tagging it going on in this one too. I'm going to start tagging everyone in this thread right now, please consider giving my book a few tags if you have a moment. I'm a new author trying to get out of the gate with kindle publishing. I have my book in the final publishing stage; my cover should be finished uploading at some point today. I appreciate it!http://www.amazon.com/Dark-Mansion-Sh...

Lynnly, Jonathan - tagged you! Please remember to indicate which tags you REALLY want tagged. I try to tag as many as possible, but in some cases, I'm not sure if the author agrees or wants all the tags put up.Vered

Bev, Michele (and others) - do you want to be tagged on Amazon? If so, you need to put the Amazon link. You have provided the Goodreads link (is there a tag system on Goodreads?)Vered

Thanks everyone!" Hi Beverly: Can you give Amazon link? If people can link through, it makes it easier to tag.

Sorry, folks, I thought I had the Amazon link! Here's the correct one. And I have a request as well. I've been going through and looking for other tags and get lost, so should we include our Amazon link every time we post a comment or remark? That might make it easier on us newbies, anyway.
Thanks again,
Bev

Hallo, I am the author of the book "Tampico's Gold" and I would like to join this tagging parade.The amazon link to my book is: http://www.amazon.com/Tampicos-Gold-E...
I'll work my way backwards through thethread and start tagging myself :o)
No, Elizabeth, not at all! You have to log into your Amazon account. You will then see about half way down the Amazon page of a book a section called "Tags" - you click on the little boxes beside the tags. Your tags will only be visible to others if at some point in history you have made a purchase on Amazon with your account. Hope that helps! Veredhttp://www.amazon.com/Diary-Part-Time...
I put my name on the other tag list, but I'm going to tag everyone on this page. Please tag any or all of my tags -http://www.amazon.com/Treespeaker-ebo...
Thanks,
Kate ...off to tag
OK, I'm exhausted from tagging, made it as far back as December. I was very impressed with the totals on some peoples books :o) Great tagging support :o)Maybe I can do a page a day in the future.

Ha ha! I felt like I had run a marathon by the time I finished - I did the archived ones in a few sittings. But once you are caught up, then it's a couple minutes here and there.
Vered
Todd, on your website, how come you don't have people list their link to Amazon like they do here? It would be SO much easier!
Jonathan Sturak - I am impressed with the number of tags that you have accumulated! Your book must be doing well.

Hi Chaz,
The link is actually the graphic of their book - just click the picture and it will take you directly to their book's page on Amazon!
Tagging site update - my intent was to complete all of last months updates this weekend but one of my kids had surgery due to appendicitis so I'm behind again (sorry). Also, I finished another tagging author's books and will post my review soon.

Hi Patti - can you give me the link to your trailer? Would love to see it, thanks!

WOW! That is great! I loved the music and the imagery. Good job!
Well thanks for that. it took so long and after a while you start to wonder if it really is OK. So thanks guys. Next one will be even better!
Hi! I'm new around here and catching up with all the amazing advice. Since I have a head cold, I thought it would be a good time to sit on the couch and do some tagging. And watch the hockey game.I am a debut children's fantasy adventure writer:
http://www.amazon.com/Brigitta-White-...
If I could pick three tags to request others tag me with, they would be:
faeries
fantasy adventure
children's fantasy
Now I'm off to see how far I can get tagging others...

I've tagged both of yours as well as everyone else's back through Feb 8th and still going. . .
I just realized that you have to tag the paperback and kindle versions separately, so here's my kindle link:http://www.amazon.com/Brigitta-White-...
(I've gotten all the way back to January with the tagging so far...)

Tag, you're it...
Another question:OK now that I have tagged a bunch of books, many of which I would NEVER read, not my genre, will this now affect the type of books that Amazon recommends to me?? Or only if I search using the tagged words??
http://www.amazon.com/Tampicos-Gold-E...
I've tagged everyone since my last post except Sofia. That includes Beverly, P.W., Elizabeth, Katie and Danika. To Sofia, I'm not aware of any way to "tag" as such on GR. However, I invite everyone to join the thread I started over in the group Goodread Authors/Readers called "I'll read yours, if ..." which give as step up step way of boosting each other's visiblity up thru reading and review (neither is required). Anyway, tagging on amazon is great. Per Beverly's suggestion I am reposting. Please tag both the paperback and the ebook: thrillers, adult fiction and adventure. thanks.http://www.amazon.com/Abomination-Ass...
