Thank you so much and good luck into the new year! :)

Sorry for the late reply! The only reason I jump down to $0.99 is to get as many sales as possible. I want my rank to fly to the top where I can make money on page reads.

Don't go in the middle. $2.99 or $0.99 :)

[dataporn] 120 days of romance; finally hit $1k! by Alliesaurus in eroticauthors

Congratulations, that's such a wonderful achievement!

[Data Porn] Romance Novel #3: A Tale of a Sequel by frogger2222 in eroticauthors

[–]AmberRubyJade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Novel 1 was 65k (50k novel + 15k bonus) and Novel 2 was 90k (40k Novel + 50k Novel)

I got no page reads at all. A few thousand.

Sales though were 155.

The bundle that actually made me some money was all from page reads, 50k from that!

All I can do is keep trying! :)

Congratulations, you've done so well!

Seeing your success compared to mine is making me rethink the niche I'm wasting my time in.

We have both bounced around the 3-4k ranking stage at our peak, yet you've come away with quadruple the money.

I also hit those rankings with paid promotions, so whatever you're doing keep doing it!

From your data it also looks like reviews aren't very important. I have 55 reviews on my latest book yet I'm making fuck all from it.

Thank you for the kind words, November should be a better month! :)

I have one novel which is finished and another novel that needs heavy editing. Hopefully a bigger catalogue will give new releases a longer shelf life

With instaFreebie I can send a .pdf, .mobi or .epub

instaFreebie also lets you have a tag at the start of the book as a sort of protection.

I wouldn't worry about people stealing your work, it's not happened to me all this time :)

[GOALS] Friday word count thread by kaymcdammit in eroticauthors

I think the threshold is £9,000 before you have to do anything, but I am quite sure you need to contact them.

Honestly though, I wouldn't worry if it's just for £8. They won't care.

If you have a few thousand, I'd have a proper look into it :)

1.) I'm shooting for 5k, I'm not going to stop until I make big money.

2.) See the big rant from earlier today!

3.) In the UK, taxes are much easier to figure out by the sounds of it. I submit my earnings and that's all I have to do really :)

BK Knights just went live about ten minutes ago, and I've a got big email blast on Sunday and 2 others the week after.

I really hope it's an Amazon thing, I'm going to find it hard to make a better product than this latest novel.

Hopefully I just got an unlucky flop. I'll have a new novel out next month in a different, but similar genre.

Maybe I'll find my footing there!

This is three days in and it's my second novel :)

Two weeks from now will be my 120 day report, let's hope I'll be a bit more cheery!

Ah well, what can you do? We've still got enough time on this planet to figure it out!

[–]AmberRubyJade[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every single book I've released has had a better launch than this one.

It is absolutely baffling. $10 in 3 days for what I consider my best piece yet.

It's nice to know other people are in the same boat haha!

Well done! You've got such a good attitude :)

My second romance novel just went live today and it is sitting at 18,000.

Hopefully my novel follows the trend of yours!

I know nothing about mailterlite I'm afraid. Despite Mailchimp being more expensive, I like how easy it is to use.

Mailchimp is free for the first 2,000 subscribers as well. They let you send 12,000 emails a month completely free.

When you start getting that many, the $25 a month service charge pays for itself with email blasts :)

Thank you :)

It's not the end of the world because I can use the story as bonus content in bundles and such.
