So I was checking out the Amazon page for my book the other day, and I noticed the keywords that Amazon chose for it, which include the phrase “garbage ship.” And I thought to myself, who wouldn’t want to read a book with a key phrase of “garbage ship”? The Amazon employee who picks out the keywords clearly got his marketing degree from a very prestigious institution. Although to his credit, the rest of the key words are at least eclectic: Competence Island International Treasury The Puri-fire Collin Collins Appearance Renovation Garbage Gift Program Planet Thrae Retroactive Fun Recognition Design Department Chairman Creepy Crawler
I’m surprised that more people aren’t randomly stumbling upon my book when they search for the phrase “Design Department Chairman.”
