29% get their recommendations from fellow readers on online message forums, blogs and message boards.
But only 4% only 4% selected, “Personal friend/family member recommends it to me.
18% look first for their favorite authors.
Most of the rest find their books by browsing.
But only 3% got their books from the best sellers list.
Basically this means authors need to take multiple approaches to get noticed. But this also means most self published writers have an equal chance to get noticed. So remember, write the best book you can, so when they do discover you they'll come back for seconds.
