I went to tag you, but did not see any tags. Why don't you let me know a few tags and I will tag them. :)

Great Christy, I will tag yours!

I did yours as well

Christy wrote: "http://www.amazon.com/Familiar-Scars-..."

Done, Christy.

Thanks

some tags are child, wrath, riley, prophecy.

I thought they were there, and when I view it, I can see them. but maybe I'm not doing it the right way.

I tried adding them and it didn't work for me either.

You must be logged in to add tags. Once someone has added tags, you should be able to simply check the box next to the tag that you want to select (the ones you agree with) and then you have tagged. Look at mine. The tags are already in place. If you are logged in click on the little squares next to the tag. If there are no little squares, click on add tags...this will take you to a login page.

Does that help?

So, Login at amazon
1. Go to page of the book you want to tag.
2. Scroll down past author to "Tags Customers associate with this product"

3. Either click on add tags or click on tiny boxes next to existing tags.

Ohh, I see now. It's because I haven't bought anything with the account its logged in as. So they are invisible to the public I guess. sorry~

Give me your link again Daniel and I will try again. The tags should not be invivisible to the public.

don't know why it's so long of a link, but ok.

Hi Daniel, Okay, first of all , all the amazon links look long when you copy them.
Second, your tags appear to be in place and visible. I saw four tags and I clicked on the four tags that you selected. I actually suggest that you add more than four tags. I was going to add some for you, but was unfamilar with the book. Would you call it fantasy, coming of age, adventure, boy's book?
Now try tagging my book with an account that you have made a purchase with. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/tags...

Let me know if this helps.

This list of tags is manageable. I'm tagging all of you right now. If you have time, I'd appreciate reciprocation... Best, Jen

James, Sean, Dwayne, Christy, and Daniel, I tagged all available options. Brett, I couldn't tag yours, and I tried all the links... I don't know what's wrong, but if you contact Author's Central, they should fix it in a few days.

Hi Jen, It appears to be working now Try http://www.amazon.com/You-Can-Right-M...

I have tagged your link. brett

Hi Everyone, Today someone tagged my book with the word idiot. I can only assume that they meant to describe themselves. Does anyone know how to get rid of inappropriate and malicious tags? http://www.amazon.com/You-Can-Right-M...
Thanks, Brett

returning favors :D

by the way guys I also have it listed on all the amazon sites. Do tags with one book also count for other amazon sites?

Great idea, I'm on it! Here's my title:


Final Passage

Tim

Can you please link to the amazon.com link?

Kevin wrote: "Can you please link to the amazon.com link?"

http://www.amazon.com/Final-Passage-e...

That's the one.

I added the tags "murder mystery" and "kindle" since it's online only :D

Kevin wrote: "I added the tags "murder mystery" and "kindle" since it's online only :D"

Thanks I have tagged everyone to date in the thread. Do you think it makes much difference? Tim

I just tagged Kevin's Final Passage. (Doesn't that sound wrong of me?)

I also wrote in "GoodReads author" for him. Every time a tag is used, a Community is created, so each one of you probably have a community in your own name.

Not a lot of authors participate in the GoodReads Author community, but you could with comments and discussions about your books. It's an author community, so you cannot be accused of spamming the reader boards, but your discussions will show up on the reader boards.

Here's my Mating Net (Kindle Book)

Yes, Brett,
We discussed this on the other Tag My Book group run by Todd. In fact, I think you initiated the complaint there, and several of us helped you out.

Please only use this info to remove or reduce the number of tags that are insults about yourself or friends.

Log in. Go to Communities. Find the Community of Idiots.
http://www.amazon.com/tag/idiot/ref=t...

Right there left and center are books by Glenn Beck, Sarah Palin etc. See the text link, "Are these related to idiot? Vote here".

It also says "See all 98 products"

Click the vote link and you can locate your own book and vote. I couldn't find your book.

Find your book in the Products list. At the top above your cover is Agree/Disagree. There are chevrons to vote up (agree) or down (disagree).

Since you seem to have a recurring problem with an ill-wisher, look at the "idiot Contributors".

I kid you not! Amazon calls them that. (Right hand margin)

If you really want to do so, you can keep clicking and possibly identify someone who has tagged a book "idiot" with someone who has tagged your book.

Amazon is scary.

Using personal insults as tags is against Amazon's TOS, so you can complain.

Also, on your book page, there is a text link "Agree with these tags" If you click it, you will also be able to DISagree with the tags.

All the best,
Rowena Cherry

It can't hurt ^_^

My futuristic political thriller about a great right wing conspiracy is listed on Amazon.com. Greatly appreciate your offer to post a tag. Here's the link:
http://www.amazon.com/Founding-Five-M...

Regards,
E.M.Muller

My new novel,The Usurper, about what-if the Soviet Union decided to take down the United States from within through the political system, no matter what it takes or how long it takes. Involves such random conspiracies like birth certificates, who was really involved with 9/11, Waco, and Oklahoma City, and who is actually behind all the terrorism in the world. All geared towards weakening the US.

Here is a link to my novel on Amazon ...

I'd be glad to return the favor to one and all, but must admit I'm not up on this tagging business. Anyone care to explain it to me simply? How and why to do it. Thanks!

Just tagged The Trees in Winter and The Usurper.
Please return the favor by tagging my new novella, Confessions of a Liberal Lover. Here's the link.

http://www.amazon.com/Confessions-Lib...

Thanks
E.M.

Okay, E.M. I just tagged your novella, but why do I get bounced to that "Real Name" page after tagging? Each time, I just clicked the back arrow and continued to tag. Hope I'm doing it right, and am still unclear if I am, and exactly WHY I'm doing it. Can someone please offer a quick explanation of tagging? Thanks!

Hi All,
I've paid forward and tagged everyone all the way back to the start of this thread. A few of you already had my tags on your books. We must belong to a similar group elsewhere.

Here are my tags. Please do both Kindle and paper versions because they don't seem to carry over.

Thank you so much.
