Description

Authors talk about “the algorithm” the way the little aliens in Toy Story talk about “the claw.” Does the algorithm randomly choose your book, or is someone else controlling the claw?

In this week’s episode, you’ll discover what we know about how Amazon decides which books to show, and how to get your book in front of the readers most likely to love it.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • How Amazon “decides” which book recommendations to give shoppers
  • Which readers you should persuade to click Amazon’s “buy now” button, and which you should sell to yourself
  • How Amazon’s algorithm is changing and tips to help you adapt your strategy

If your book is on Amazon, this episode is not optional listening. Poor optimization can quietly poison the recommendation engine against you. Listen in or read the blog version to keep your book in front of your Timothy.
