There seems to be a sort of tipping point with regard to sales. Once you get your book far enough up the rankings it gets more attention, makes more sales, and then goes even further up the rankings and starts to sell itself. My book was only making a handful of sales each week until this year, when sales via Amazon.co.uk suddenly shot up without me doing very much myself, though I think a number of very positive reviews there certainly helped (as well as making me happy). I think in this case I benefitted from the smaller size of the UK market, having been on the UK site since it launched, as my book was always in the top few thousand even though I was only making a few sales at first. I'm still only making 10-15 sales per month in the States where my book seems lost amidst the vast number of other titles who have massive lead on me, sales wise.
