Hey, case101 - cool beans!

I signed up my blog a while ago, but since Amazon puts too high a price (imho) I suspended it. But they lower the price for many blogs. I'm told that if you post frequently (perhaps everyday) they will lower it. However nobody is sure. It might just be that frequent posters also get more traffic, and it's the traffic that triggers the price break.

We'll see.

I post about 1 per day on average, they give me an initial price of 1.99,
you're right, i think my blog will attract more subscriber if they give me 0.99

You should edit the title of this thread to include "Geographically Restricted" as (at least) Europeans can not buy/subscribe to your blog.

So in a world of free blogs, Amazon wants us to pay for some author's?

Well, they don't ask for you to pay for accessing them as usual - on the web. The pay is for the ability to read it on your Kindle - which may or may not be worth it to you.

(IMHO, the base price is way too high for free content. I wish they'd just lower it to a buck a month and be done with it - or at least let the blog owners set a price.)
