Oh how I wish a picture of me on my computer could have made it into Lyndon Stambler’s article on Amazon sales rankings. The article is an interesting look into the world of Amazon rankings. Though Amazon has dropped sales volumes, there’s still a lot you can get from the rankings, even if some is inferential. With Rankforest’s charts, you can gauge the effect of a bookstore promotion. And by using rankings gathered from Barnes and Noble and even Amazon.co.uk, you can get a better picture of how your book is doing.

It’s been awhile since the last post. I’ve been pretty busy the last couple months caring for our dog, who has lymphoma and hasn’t responded well to any treatments.

I’ve been mulling some new features based on feedback I’ve received recently. I’ll try to bundle it up into a poll in the next couple of days to see which things you’d find most useful. Nearly half of the site’s visitors (the other half is comprised of IE and all the other browsers) are using Firefox. I’m working on a new charting option that those using Firefox will be able to utilize.
