Something new I learned about Kindle.

>Kindle Owners' Lending Library

This is different from someone buying a Kindle eBook and lending it to someone to read. KOLL is for people enrolled in Kindle Prime or Amazon Prime or some such thing. They get one free book a month to I think essentially rent and read. The author of the book receives KENP royalties when it is read by someone for the first time. It would also seem that when a book is lent out by KOLL, it counts as a purchase, so the sales rank increases.

Also, yeah, that bottom book is an erotica and easily one of my worst-selling ones. Still, it demonstrates that if you continue not to get sales, the sales rank decreases more slowly, however immediately after getting a sale if you don't get subsequent sales/KOLL lends pretty quickly, then the sales rank decreases quickly, even hundreds of thousands of positions within a single day.
