We analyzed twenty-four mystery promotions in our updated free-ebook newsletter, and here's what we found across the 118,000-plus reader clicks. 

Earlier this year, we completely redesigned the way The Fussy Librarian promotes ebooks, and as more promotions completed their 30-day reporting period, we started asking a simple question: What is the data actually telling us?

Under The Fussy Librarian's previous newsletter system, a bargain promotion was a one-day event. Today, it's better to think of your promotion as becoming eligible for discovery.

Choosing accurate genres helps readers to discover books they're more likely to enjoy, authors to receive higher-quality clicks from interested readers, and The Fussy Librarian's matching system to become even better over time.
