KDP Select Free Promo Resources

Updated 03/16/2013

*Please note, due to changes in the Amazon Associate Affiliate agreement, a lot of the freebie sites are changing their terms, charging a nominal fee or closing their doors all together. If you find a site on this list that has shut down, please let me know. I regularly vet the list, but things are changing pretty fast right now. Thanks!
