The latest KDP Select promotion has been a blast! This one was for three days whereas the previous one was two days, but here are some comparisons.
Last time the bulk of the downloads were UK. This time it was the other way around and US (or more accurately, Amazon.com) saw the majority of the action. In fact there were more than twice as many downloads from Amazon.com alone than there were worldwide last time.
Last time Convictions hit number one in store for free downloads in the UK. This time, the overall chart position was lower. The UK high was 37 (I think). But this time, the book also got into the top 100 in the US, with a high of 15. And in both US and UK, it made number 1 in the Police Procedurals chart.
The last of the free download figures have just about finished trickling in from the US. The book went back to being charged about an hour earlier UK than US, so I’ve already started to see sales kicking in there. In fact, it’s now back up to number 27 in the Police Procedurals chart (paid this time, of course) which is brilliant!
Convictions was downloaded from every Amazon outlet but Italy. And UK and US sales of my other books, especially Gone Bad, have been very good indeed.
I’m happy to chalk this up as another successful promotion. Massive thanks to everyone who downloaded and/or bought books. I hope you enjoy reading them.
