For publishers that funnel substantial numbers of sales through Amazon, conventional retail, and their own storefronts, this can result in a distortion of their relative significance vis-a-vis publishers that channel their sales very heavily through DTRPG.<br /><br />Sine Nomine Publishing, for example, is currently considered a major publisher by the algorithm, but Cubicle 7 is not.

As far as visibility goes, do any creators feel like that's a problem? Genuine question. KyleRovagughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13417948095011171258noreply@blogger.com
