eBook Conversion Rate

I wanted to show everyone this because this is a really high conversion rate, it boosts my confidence, motivates me to keep writing, and makes me pretty darn proud. This is Smashwords, not Amazon. Amazon doesn't show me how many people have downloaded the sample. I was told to expect 1000 sample downloads to a sale so this is pretty awesome.

I sold a book on Smashwords!! Woot Woot

   Its not the first time I've sold a book since I published "Be Careful What You Wish For", but its the first time I've sold a copy on Smashwords.  As far as I can tell I still haven't been listed on the other sites like Barns and Noble or Goodreads.  Everyone who has read it told me they liked it, but if they hated it they probably wouldn't tell me anyway.  In total since I published "Be Careful What You Wish For" I've made about 3 dollars which is perfectly fine with me.  Its my first book and I have no fan base and I'm just learning how to advertise it so I'm happy with the starting amount of 3 dollars.  I didn't expect overnight success.
