Locked Please add statistics for non-US publishers

Blurb, please add the ability for me to see how many copies of each of my books have been sold.

Because I live outside the US I am unable to participate in your Set the Price option, and so have (reluctantly) decided to allow my books to be sold at cost, just for the exposure.

Now I find that I cannot even get statistics on the number of books sold.  I cannot understand your reasoning for this.  I am making you money and getting nothing in return, not even statistics.  This has got to be an easy fix, please do this as soon as possible.

Also please expand the hit counter to differentiate by book.

glenlan –

We hear  you. Only providing metrics for SYP members wasn’t done purposefully.  The book metrics were built specifically to show profit and price markups for  SYP members. Two additional metrics (visits and purchases) ended up being included during that development.

But, we agree that all authors should have access to visit and sales metrics. This is something we’ll be fixing soon.

Hey glenlan –

Two new things. Now, all Blurb members can view their statistics (whether they’re enrolled in Set Your Price or not). 

And, more importantly, Set Your Price is now international, available to members in all countries we ship to.

Locking this thread, but feel free to provide feedback in the new International SYP thread.
