Hi AW Members,
What is the best way to get reviews? I have had at least 30 people say they would download my book and write a review, but so far I've had about 20 downloads and just 2 reviews. I know Amazon rejects family and friend reviews, but surely most early reviews will come from those people. I don't want to be known as one of those people that bugs you for a review every time I see you. I rewrote my book 8 times, paid for an assessment from a recognised assessment service (from the Writers and Artists Yearbook - Excellent review by the way). I'm working on new titles, but what do I do to get those crucial 10+ reviews I need to stand out? I always think that people are unlikely to take a chance on a £2.99 book with 2 reviews when there is another with 10+ reviews. Any tips would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jason
