Did Amazon change something again?
My sales on Amazon .com have pretty much dried up, as in 4 or 5 sales a month, but sales on .co.uk have increased. I know I write for a primarily UK audience, but the hells angels versus zombies one used to always do well in America.

I don't know if this is anything to do with it, but something appears to be going on lately with Geo-targetting on Amazon Kindle pages.
I'm in Spain and even if I went to the UK version to purchase a book, I used to get transferred over to the dot com version, as seemed to be the norm. But just lately, I stay on the UK version and am even allowed to purchase from there. (fingers crossed for me it stays that way). |

I wouldn't know as my sales are near zero anyway, particularly the last month.
Summertime? |

We have summer here as well, though it has been raining a lot. Surely people would buy more in summer? For when they go on holiday, or sit in the garden or whatever it is they do?

I don't know how it works with books, but my software sales are always at their lowest in the summer. I think people are spending their money on holidays, etc.
