It's a service for community authors that makes it easy and secure to get your books reviewed.
There's a certain “vicious circle” in the writing business: for your book to sell, it has to have reviews, but to get reviews, you need to get people to buy the book. This site allows you to get honest and real reviews from live people, which can be the start of your career as a writer.

In addition, amazon strictly monitors fraudulent reviews, product ratings and severely penalizes any abuse in this area up to account blocking. This service helps avoid situations of reciprocal reviews (which amazon regards as abuse).
First, the reviews are written by real people who have also purchased your book.

Second, the site is designed to eliminate reciprocal reviews. As soon as someone takes your book for review, the site automatically hides all of that author's books for you. This closes off the possibility of “reciprocal reviewing” which amazon doesn't like.

Third, we do not interfere with the review writing process, which eliminates possible manipulation on our part.
Any way you like. We do not interfere with the process of rating and writing a review. Nor will we require the author to edit or change his or her evaluation if your review is not to the author's liking. However, we realize that any critical review and evaluation can severely hurt the author of the work (after all, he or she invested a lot of effort and time to create it). Because of this, we reserve the right to block any user who leaves solely negative reviews, as this can make our community extremely toxic.
First of all, the honest ones. Any author is interested in how you found their work. Also, healthy criticism will help him correct the mistakes in the future.

Second, detailed ones. It's important for the author, and the future reader, to know what's good about the book, and what's bad. Besides, what is good for one reader may not be good for another and vice versa! Therefore, it is important not to limit yourself to one or two words, but to try to write an informative review that would be helpful to all.

The third important thing is consistency. You can agree such reviews as “everything is great! 1 star!” or ”the worst thing I've ever read. 5 stars” are more confusing than helpful in truly evaluating whether or not this book is worthy of a reader's attention.
Of course not! All reviews are done by real people who have, among other things, the ability to leave these reviews (Amazon checks whether the account has spent 50 in the last six months for this).
  • For writing extremely negative reviews, without justification, explanation or not based on facts.
  • For lying. The value (in credits) of a review depends on the price of the book on amazon. If you write that the book is free, and in fact it costs 10 dollars, this is a direct deception not only of your reviewers, but also of this project.
If you don't want to spend extra credits because of the price of your book, you can always discount it on Amazon or even schedule a give away (for ebooks)! This is a good tactic in general if you've just published a book.

To do this, you have an indication of the sale on the order form where you specify its period and the price for that period. This way you don't have to keep track of all your orders. Keep in mind that your order will only be placed for the period you specify in the form, and if no one is interested in it by the end of the sale, it will be canceled and the credits you spent on it will be refunded to you.
