Billiejo Priestley (billiejopriestley) | 1 comments I am hosting a goodreads giveaway and I can't finds answers anywhere for things.

My first issue is, on my author dashboard it says 145 people requesting the giveaway.
Yet on the giveaway, my book page etc it says 88 people.
Is there a reason one is higher than the other?

Also, it says that all 145 have added the book to their tbr list, yet on the book page itself none show?

Goodreads is a bit finicky at times. It may take some time to update and display the same information on both screens.

As far as those having added it to their tbr, it doesn't show on the book page. It you click on your profile picture (upper right) and then on "author dashboard", that will display how many people have it on their tbr.

Also, make sure you're using the desktop version to get complete, accurate data. The app is days/weeks behind. It hardly ever updates.

Tik | 6 comments giveaways sound good. You can use it during work on next app or website. Also you do not forget about checking saas too. I got https://www.tremendous.com/products/g... for rewards or doations for workers,customers and etc. The pros of SaaS include cost, maintenance and mobility.
