Facebook Graph Search Great Marketing for Writers
Any
author who is published on Amazon has learned that the all powerful, all known
secret of tagging and agreed tags to get your book up in ranking keeps
disappearing... then reappearing.
Will
it continue?
Will
it go away forever?
Hell
if I know? I haven’t talked to Amazon. And frankly my mind doesn’t sit around
whining about what I can’t control. I have looked at what has stayed and what’s
to come.
LIKES!
You
should be asking, “Why do I care if Facebook Likes are still on my book page on
Amazon?”
Good
question. And I have an answer. In fact I’m in the middle of an experiment and
I’ll share my ideas and findings with you over the next few weeks.
But
first…
You
need to understand that the new Facebook Graph Search is powered by Likes and keywords. Just like tags and reviews power Amazon’s search
algorithm.
Where the Graph Search pulls it’s information is from your tribe!
Your friends! Your Peeps Yo!
Let me
share an example.
Say
you go to the Google search app on your phone or PC and you search for “paranormal romance author.” Google will
give the same answer based off SEO manipulation from the use of keywords in
sites and blogs EVERYWHERE on the internet.
Now
say you search for “paranormal romance
author” within the new Facebook Graph
Search. The Graph Search will use keywords and likes from within your
friends on Facebook. The algarhythum will calculate from within your tribe the
Likes they have hit on pages, on AMAZON, on websites, and then those pages
keywords to help compile a list to choose from of the top paranormal romance authors
suggested by YOUR peeps!
This
has the potential to be AMAZING!
But
there is a lot to test and digest. This is just my first post.
