Hi there -- I recently promoted my book The Sisters, for two days as part of the KDP promotion option. I pre-notified two dozen free sites prior to the start date in hopes of boosting my downloads. The good news is, that really worked well -- I got 756 downloads in two days and moved to number 1 in Scary Stories (free Top 100). Bad news is, the next day my ranking went up to around 850,000 (paid), and I've received no sales as a result and not even a review. So my question is, what's the point of KDP Free days if they don't improve your paid ranking when you come off it, or help drive sales? Sorry to be so verbose, but I'm a little frustrated. Any comments? What should I do differently next time? Thanks! Don
