Now Kindle books are available on Amazon UK, maybe us UK authors should tag each other since from what I can gather all the tags have gone back to 0 on the UK pages.

My UK page is http://www.amazon.co.uk/Memoirs-bar-steward-14th-25th-August/dp/B003X9571W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1281014319&sr=8-1&tag=kindleboards-21

I tagged my own books and I'm waiting to see if they stick.  I am not sure my US account "counts" over in the UK.  It obviously recognized me (because it noted the books were for UK only.)

I'll go check yours.

I was able to tag yours, Scott.

Maria, your tags aren't showing up.

I think I'll wait a week to see if the tags start showing up. If I have to go back and tag several pages, I'll do it. I just don't want to skip anyone accidentally since it seems to be hit and miss.

And I can still only see the ones I've added myself. Very strange.

I've added my tags. Wish they would put up the prices because I'd like to add that tag to the 99 cent novelette. 

Let me know if you can get into the tags.  The "tt" command works.

Link is in my siggy but here it is

I can see my check marks on The Outsiders showing you've got two tags. This has happened to me on the US tagging side. People I trust tell me they've tagged me and they don't show up for awhile.

Are you guys willing to tag for us Americans who've been tagging for you on the U.S. side? I know I could use a few tags in the UK store...but it won't let me. *sigh*

Sign into the UK store with your US sign in and then manually add your tags. Apparently, it takes a while for the tags to show up. I can see those I've added myself, but nobody can see them yet.

This morning, I was able to tag all but three of Willie's. This afternoon, his tags showed up and I tagged the last three.

Scott's showed up and I was able to tag him.

Go ahead and add your tags and remind us tomorrow to check for your tags. I get the feeling they'll show up eventually.

Haha Ok, I'll go through and do some UK tagging. Hit me up!

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B003OQUOFI/ref=tag_dpp_yt_edpp_rt?ie=UTF8&s=books%23tags

Well I got to bar. Some people don't have tags showing. How much do we get in royalties for 3/4 of a pound??

Your tags aren't showing yet either.  Remind us again tomorrow. I think it takes at least 24 hours for the data base to update.

Thanks Bar--I tried twice.  I can see they are tagged, but I don't think they are sticking.  I also clicked yours and added some (Kindle and TTS).  So if you don't see your tag number go up, I'm guessing they aren't counting my tagging because I'm in the US.

I think it takes a while for the database to update. I couldn't tag Willie's last three this morning but was able to this afternoon, although he says his numbers haven't gone up. Again, I think it's an update issue.

We'll see how it goes tomorrow.
