Book is all over the world now!
It is hard to believe, how a book written by yours truly is available, all over the world now. I checked the other night, and it is in spectacular Portugal.
When first writing it, I thought it would be in the USA and Canada. I never imagined it, to be able to be found in Japan, Germany, India, China, France, Italy, Netherlands, and great England, just to name a few. It is not even, translated into these languages. Why would anyone with a different language, even attempt, to pick it up?
Now, I tried to add up all these populations the other night. And, then you try to figure out the % of internet based people in all of these countries. People who have access. Then, try to figure out the % who is looking for a book.. Interesting...
So, internet connections, lets say an average of 80 % of the population has access. Lets say my book is being sold to Europe, USA, England, Japan, China, India, ect. I am estimating a possible viewership of 2.8 Billion. Now at 80 %, 2.2 Billion. Now, those who looks for books... I am estimating, 20 % of the population seriously looks for books. Hum.. Am I right... But, then there is the language barrier.. This could slice the numbers down, dramatically.
Lets say we do not take into consideration the language barrier..
440 million viewers.. For books... Am I right.. Probably not.. But it is amazing, how it is all over the world. When you see, only 2 copies left, in certain areas, I wonder what is going on. When I see several used copies for sale, I wonder, what is going on. As, everywhere on every site I see this. But, yet I have not generated much of any sales... I will keep my ears wide open.... Till then :)
