<p>Watching the Amazon sales rank float up and down every day, it was driving my crazy wondering what the numbers meant in terms of actual pre-orders for the book. Yesterday I had one of those &#8220;duh&#8221; moments when I realized that, since 99% of the action must be coming through the link on GeekDad, and since that link goes through my Amazon Affiliate account, I could run an Orders report to see what the numbers actually are. So, here we are! From the start of the year, there have been 170 pre-orders for the book. And over 16k click-thrus! Woo-hoo!</p>
