KDP slushpile analysis site?

scrapking · 05-09-2012, 05:09 PM

One of the luminaries of this site once posted a website that tracked KDP books that were temporarily free, but I can't find the thread it was in. Anyone have any suggestion of sites that help you sift through the slushpile? Thanks in advance.

Very handy, lets you sort by timeframe and limit genre to your liking. If there's a flaw, it's that some books get placed in mysteriously wrong genres at times.
They also have a service where you can identify a book, and they will email you when/if the price drops by the amount you specify. I've tried it, haven't gotten a 'hit' yet (for one of the books I really wanted, but missed, when it went on promo.)

I use this service daily for free books. It's great!

I do use the watchlist feature and it does work. I get emailed when a book drops in the price range I want. My only wish was I wish it sync with the wishlist instead of just import from Amazon. If I buy a book I have to remember to remove it from the watchlist.
