&lt;p&gt;When publishing a book, it&amp;#39;s important to understand that the various distribution channels for selling books may track sales differently. They may also treat book genres and categories differently. These are two areas of publishing where author Angela Marie Hutchinson wishes she had researched more before publishing her nonfiction self-help book, &amp;quot;Create Your Yes: When You Keep Hearing No: A 12-Step Strategy for Success&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With the publishing and distribution process, Hutchinson learned that not all book sales are created equal when bestseller lists are compiled. She also discovered online retailers such as Amazon rank sales largely based on a book&amp;#39;s categories and sub-categories, and that putting your book in the more niche categories can greatly improve your book&amp;#39;s rankings.&lt;/p&gt;
