An Interview with Mario Lurig and Novel Rank

An Interview with Mario Lurig and Novel Rank

By Shannon Yarbrough on January 11, 2010

Recently, Mario Lurig, the creator of NovelRank, left a comment on LLBR and added all of our reviewer’s books to his site. Mario’s site tracks your book’s sales on Amazon, and his service is free. It’s a great tool for authors and Mario is always posting lots of useful information on the blog portion of his site. Look for a post later today highlighting the “best and worst of Lulu.” We caught up with Mario to learn more about NovelRank and how it works.

The blog received a total of three thousand hits during this time, and only thirty of you voted in the poll. So, 1% of our visitors voted in the poll, and I think that’s actually a fair comparison to how those 30 people ranked in sales.
