If you have a bunch of books, you can have some at .99 as a loss-leader or to boost your # of units and author rank.

It sucks to sell full-length novels for that much. Definitely give it a shot, putting your book on sale from time to time, but track your #s and do your own analysis.

You have to sell 6 at .99 to equal 1 at $2.99.

Just curious... how does author rank actually work vs the regular rankings each book has?

If I have 3 pen names, does a hit book moving a lot of units for one of those names benefit the other 2 pen names? Or just other books under that pen name?

KDP is a publishing account. The authors are separate. ;-)

Well that begs the question then...What is a good sells rank? I was at #38,000 today in the morning, now Im at 41,000 Is this a bad rank, or okay?

In answer to your question, anything below #239 is a bad rank.
