In my opinion, this is a very good article for self-published authors about using the new kindle unlimited program to market their books. This guy has done a detailed study of this new program Amazon put into effect in July of this year. I think it’s well worth the read if you have your books available as kindles on Amazon.
This program allows readers to pay a monthly fee of $9.99
and read as many books as they like. The
catch here is that they have to read 10% of the book in order for the author to
receive payment for that book. This
should concern any author a great deal, especially if you have long books
enrolled in this program. If the books
are long, they had better be page-turners.
Of course, we all want to write books that keep the reader on the edge
of his/her seat, but I feel all books ebb and flow with tension and slower
areas. I’ve read very few that are
filled with apprehension from cover to cover.
It makes more sense, as this article suggests, to keep the
books short, only enroll the first book in this program if you have a series,
and to use it for the genres that attract the most readers.
