Just wondering if anyone knows how e-publishers determine the best sellers on their websites. Many seems to have a list of books on their homepage. Is this an automated process and can it be trusted, or is it part of their marketing to shift certain titles?
At a seminar I attended they talked about this and said that for many sites the Best Seller list means the books that sell best on that site only. Second hand knowledge but it I guess I believed it. I suppose to be sure you could go to a site and look it up. I imagine some of the bigger sites like, Amazon probably has something explaining how they come up with their list.
