I hope the data in the screenshot answers this question well enough. This is just the 7th day of the campaign, and the conversion rate is more than 19%. Hear me correctly: I do not mean to say that reviews are not important. Quite the opposite, I am sure reviews are essential for success. But do not let the absence of reviews (yet) stop you from actively promoting your book. And next, to get a very good deal for the BookVillage review platform, use the link https://bookvillage.pub/?via=guild Have you had experience with good book sales without reviews, or with a minimal number of them?

Just a brief heads-up. BookVillage will increase the subscription price for new users in the next few days. If you want to lock in the special $20/month price forever, start your free month of service today: https://bookvillage.pub/?via=guild and get two more months at a discounted price. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask @Adriano Ferrigno

In the last 30 days alone, BookVillage has permanently banned around 70 users who were relying on low-quality external services. In most cases, this means virtual assistants using already flagged Amazon accounts. It was users who would have continued paying their subscriptions and generating revenue for the service. But those users were actively lowering the quality of reviews. It's the first case I know in the "author-helps-authors" review sector where a company actively prioritizes service quality over short-term profits. What do you think: should every paid customer be allowed to take a risk, or should a service limit the ability to use its services for users who endanger others?

I've been using Book Village for a couple of months now, and not a single review I've acquired from this platform has been deleted. I think this says a lot about this platform. I go slowly, I go safely, mainly focusing on verified reviews, but I think that's the way to go about it anyway. By the way, I have no vetted interest in book village, but I'd love to see this platform grow with other like-minded authors that want to do things in the right way. The larger it becomes, the better for everyone in it.

After the interview I did with Barry on YouTube, we received dozens of emails asking for deeper explanations about the use of Virtual Assistants for posting reviews. For this reason, we decided to publish what is probably the most complete article ever written on how these accounts actually operate and why they are causing mass review deletions, book blocks, and KDP account terminations. 👉 Read the article here: https://bookvillage.pub/wiki/essential-knowledge-for-all-users/why-reviews-posted-by-virtual-assistants-are-getting-kdp-accounts-terminated A second article will follow soon, where we will show the correct way to use VAs to delegate part of your work, together with a real case study of a KDP account suspension for review manipulation, where we will analyze the information provided by Amazon and show how it strongly connects with the patterns explained in today’s article. Let me know what you think, and feel free to share it with other publishers so more people understand the risks.
