๐ IMPORTANT โ EVERY BOOKVILLAGE USER SHOULD WATCH LESSONS 5 & 7
If you are using BookVillage seriously, there are two lessons inside the BookVillage University that you absolutely should not skip:
In the future, these may even become mandatory modules before accessing certain platform functions.
Why?
Because one of the biggest mistakes people make is assuming that getting and posting reviews is โsimpleโ and that they already understand everything.
In reality, there are small details that can make a massive difference over the long term.
A few examples from Lesson 5:
โข Reviews should be naturally diluted over time.Avoid receiving too many reviews too close together. Ideally, let at least a couple of days pass between one review and the next.
โข Personally, I strongly discourage enrolling your books in KDP Select.This also means avoiding making your books available through Kindle Unlimited if your goal is maximum long-term review stability.
โข Standard Unverified reviews should remain only a small percentage of your total review profile.And when possible, I recommend receiving them on paperback versions rather than Kindle versions.
And regarding Lesson 7: Please follow the recommendations carefully.
Over the last days, we have already started increasing the level of controls and monitoring across all BookVillage users because I am obsessed with understanding exactly how to minimize Amazon-related problems even further.
At the moment, removals still represent a very small percentage of the total activity inside BookVillage. I expected to find far more removed reviews than we actually did.
But here is the key point people often fail to understand:
Sometimes it only takes a few Amazon reviewer accounts getting banned for all the reviews posted from those accounts to disappear at once.
That is why our controls will continue becoming stricter.
So when we contact you, ask for information, request screenshots, or send safety emails: please collaborate with us.
And if you are experiencing problems, tell us openly. We will try to help you solve them.
BookVillage is your ally, always.
But at the same time, we will not lower our standards.
If an account does not meet the minimum level of safety and authenticity we require, it simply will not be accepted inside the ecosystem.
And I genuinely believe that in the future there will only be two categories of review platforms:
โข BookVillage
โข and all the other platforms populated by the users that BookVillage refused to accept
I am obsessed with turning this project into the most respected and popular review ecosystem in the world.
But for that to happen, the evolution cannot come only from the platform itself.
It also needs to become cultural from the user side.
Please watch the lessons. some of the information there can genuinely protect your Amazon accounts and your publishing business long term.
BookVillage is on your side.
