How to Get a Bestseller....

There's an interesting article on the BBC site about the reasons a book sells well - here's the summary of the top 10 factors that make a book sell:

1. Word of mouth

2. The book group

3. Richard and Judy

4. Author

5. Art of covers

6. In-store marketing

7. Rise of prizes

8. Unusual titles

9. Praise for

10. Newspaper serialisation

Now, whilst this list is mainly geared towards a fiction book (this article was written in light of the Man Book Prize awards), this is still a good list for your non-fiction book too. We strongly agree that number 1 on the list is the number one method.

Are there any other methods that have worked for you?
