Can I get some DU love, please? Pretty please?
:)

I collaborated on a novel recently (a significant rewrite, research and editing - though prefer to have my name inside, not on the cover), and am now starting a marketing campaign. The author wants to go the route of traditional publishing, so I'm actively querying at the moment with promising feedback thus far.

I still would love a grassroots effort...I ALWAYS prefer a grassroots effort - ;-) - and would be most grateful if you guys could spare a few minutes to check out the video trailer I created for the book and increase the view count.

The video will, hopefully, give you a feel for the storyline (commercial fiction). :) I'm not posting the name of the novel here, because those pesky search engines seem to pick up on DU posts like wildfire. I'd prefer the youtube link or book website come up on Google. :)

It's on Youtube and Myspace. Thank you, thank you, thank you in advance!

:hi:

1. Can one person register multiple views?
Or is the ISP logged on the first viewing, with subsequent hits not counting?

2. My understanding is that it's the latter...
and, after testing it myself - with my views nor the views of others after the initial viewing not increasing the "hits" - it seems to be the case.

I didn't even have this completely finished, and was simply loading it for two people to view before I finished editing. I learned the hard way that one can't edit anything once loaded to YouTube...so, much to my dismay (since the tweaks I wanted to make really bothered me, though I've let it go now...lol), the viral video phenomenon took over. On a small scale. :)
