I can’t say if what your publisher says is true, but I highly doubt it. I recommend this post: http://novelrank.com/blog/book-sales-rank-basics/

With any luck, I intend to spend some real $$ to test some theories about what affects Sales Rank and post those results, but I have not been able to take the time or the costs to do so as of yet.

My case is one of my books Ingredient for Murder has a sales ranking of about 38,000, not so good but should indicate something sold but Novelrank only shows 3 books sold. Is the statement about Amazon true and how many books would a rannking of 38,000 be, approximately. I love your website but really need to understand it. Thanks for any reply forthcoming.

I wanted to reply to the sales estimates of the 1000 average rank for a paperback. I see that you mention an average of 8 books sold per day. This is also the case for my book (slightly more), 9781593272111, but it has a monthly average rank of 3,000 rather than 1,000.

By the way, thanks for creating this site — it’s great.

Laurens
