36. Amazon Book Review Policies - Can We Give a Book for Free for Reviews?
Listen now
Description
We all know reviews can be instrumental in giving our books some clout when it comes to people on Amazon browsing and looking to see what others thought. One question that causes some confusion among authors is, Can I give copies of my book away for free in exchange for a review? And the answer is yes, but also no. Amazon has specific rules regarding how authors can get fair reviews from readers.
This episode, I talk to Craig Tuch, the owner of Hidden Gems Books, which is a review site. While you can’t pay for reviews, Hidden Gems works within the rules of Amazon to help authors get reviews using specific email lists to send Advance Review Copies (ARCs) to those interested in reading them.
