Liking, Sharing, Tagging, and Reviewing Your Favorite Books on Amazon – A Video Tutorial
I’m not Steven Spielberg or anything, but I put this little tutorial video together to show you how easy it is to not only write a quick review for a book on Amazon, but also to like, share, and tag it to make it easier for other readers to find. This is a HUGE help to your favorite authors, and only takes you a minute or so to do!

Led by Commander Owen McClaren, the TNS Aurora is embarked on an extended survey mission, searching for new worlds that could support human life. Drawn to an uncharted star system that appears to have not just one, but two potentially habitable planets, the crew of the Aurora discovers something even more unexpected: the planets are already inhabited, but not by humans. Approached by gigantic alien starships, the human crew prepares for humanity’s very first contact with another sentient race. Read More >>
Thank you for easy to follow tutorial. Will try to leave feedback now as the Review process seems less intimidating to me and I thank you for your kindness
Glad the video’s been useful!
Great information to help out any author. It’s a tough gig doing it the indie way and I love the idea of ‘paying it forward’ to help them out.
I’ll definitely be sharing
Hi Michael,
I just wanted to let you know that I posted your video on my website/blog regarding leaving reviews. Your video thoroughly explains the importance and shows how easy it is and you state it better than I ever could. You’re fabulous!
Here’s the link to my website page and your video. Hopefully. http://www.katherineowen.net/reviews/

Nice job! I’ve retweeted and posted to my blog (www.villagedrummerfiction.wordpress.com), subscribed and I’m going to post on Facebook. Thanks for sharing!
PS. Love you sentient security check.
Good deal! Thanks for doing this!
Aside from the needed publicity, (speaking for myself) writers need to know people are reading their work– it helps fuel us.

Good point, although we also know they’re reading our work if they buy/download our books…
Great information!
I’ll link to it on my blog.
Best,

Thank for this great tutorial Michael. Nicely done.
I haven’t quite figured out how to ask for reviews. This will make it so much easier. Glad you remember the tag thing at the end.
Now off to ‘share’ this.

Glad you found it useful! And the way that works to get reviews (that works for me) is simply to nicely ask people who’ve read and enjoyed your books to please consider leaving a review, even if it’s just a blurb. A review doesn’t have to be long!
A very helpful tutorial.I write reviews on chapters.ca as piafinn I’ve written a few on Amazon but I didn’t know about the share option for twitter and facebook. Thanks
Awesome! Glad you found it useful!
What a great idea…now on my way to review some books
Nice video. You’ve encouraged me to start to leave reviews. Thanks
As a soon-to-be published author, I love what you’ve done, and will start with a review later today.
Great little video, I tweeted it to my people and will post on my Facebook as well. It nicely encapsulates what readers can do to help. Thanks!

Awesome! Glad it was of use, and thanks for retweeting!
This is really smart. I wish I had thought to do this myself. Instead, I posted it to my Facebook fan page to all of my readers and fans.

People don’t realize just how helpful this is to authors.
