Ebooks and free Amazon offers
this is really a question for others with ebooks out there. My books are not in Amazon KDP so I can't find a way to off them free on Amazon. The reason for this not including them (apart from objecting to the whole monopoly thing) is that I get my best sales on Smashwords and the outlets it links to like Barnes and Noble and Apple. Has anyone else hit this problem and have you found any way round it to enable you to offer your book for free on Amazon? I want to move up the Amazon rankings but using an offer, but I'm stumped.

Sorry I can't be more help, but good luck!
It seems if it's offered free elsewhere then Amazon may price match eventually. If they do, you'll probably have a lot of trouble getting them to charge again afterwards. I've been advised that if the book will be gree all the time then it's worth giving it a go, but if you intend to do a temporary promotion and then charge afterwards it isn't.
