Hi everyone & @Adriano Ferrigno I have a question about the long-term Amazon/KDP safety of the BookVillage model, and I'd love to hear from the team or experienced users. From my understanding, BookVillage is not a direct review swap platform. Instead, reviews are earned through a broader community system where different members read and review different books rather than a simple "I review yours, you review mine" exchange. However, I'm trying to understand how Amazon might view this. For example: - Many reviews on BookVillage are Verified Purchase reviews. - But some reviewers may also be authors participating in the ecosystem to earn reviews for their own books. - In that case, does Amazon see these reviews as genuine customer reviews, or could they potentially view them as part of a review network? I'm also curious about what is considered the safer option from Amazon's perspective: receiving Verified Purchase reviews from people who are part of a review community and may also be reviewing to earn reviews themselves, or receiving reviews from genuine readers who found the book independently but whose reviews are unverified because they didn't purchase through Amazon. Does Amazon place more weight on the verified status, or on the fact that the reviewer has no connection to a review ecosystem? My concern isn't about getting reviews quickly. I'm more interested in protecting my KDP account long-term. Has the BookVillage team received any feedback from Amazon regarding this model? Have there been any known cases where authors experienced review removals or account issues specifically because they used BookVillage? I'd appreciate any transparency or insights on how BookVillage differentiates itself from traditional review exchanges, how the team believes it aligns with Amazon's review guidelines, and what approach is generally considered the lowest risk for authors focused on long-term account safety. Thanks in advance!
