Setting up author pages at Amazon's international sites.

Rate: 0 Flag


If you're an author with books listed on Amazon, chances are good that your books are also listed on Amazon's international sites. And if you join Author Central:

http://authorcentral.amazon.com

, you can collect all your books in one place, and provide readers with a bio, like this:

http://www.amazon.com/-/e/B000APGB80

Then, a little down-arrow icon will appear next to your Author name, like this:

http://www.amazon.com/dp/1448620805

, and when a mouse hovers over the icon, you'll see a link entitled "Visit Amazon's Alan C. Baird Page." You'll see a similar link (and photo) further down that page, under the "More About the Author" heading. After you get everything set up at Amazon.com, you can join the Author Central areas on the international sites:

http://authorcentral.amazon.co.uk
http://authorcentral.amazon.fr
http://authorcentral.amazon.de
http://authorcentral.amazon.co.jp

Hint: if you use a Google Chrome browser: http://www.google.com/chrome

, you can right-click on any page that contains a foreign language, and get an instant translation. You can also get translations by pasting words or URLs here:

http://translate.google.com/

Here are some samples:

http://www.amazon.fr/-/e/B000APGB80
http://www.amazon.de/-/e/B000APGB80
http://www.amazon.co.jp/-/e/B000APGB80

Amazon.ca, Amazon.cn and Amazon.it don't have author pages yet...
