Hello bros 12345, when does Amazon pays for Kenp read. I noticed that they paid me for sales in the month of January but not for my Kenp read. I think also they did not pay me for sales recorded in other markets

The KENP read is added to your main sales income and paid to you. For example, my direct US income for Jan was 1679, but I got paid 1897. I believe the added difference was the KENP read from the US for that month. Same applies for other markets

But I don't think I was paid for my Kenp read for the month of January. Because when I did my calculations, I noticed that It was the exact amount of money which I made that I was paid. May be I should contact support Centre or customer care.

WHEN YOUR BOOK FINALLY STOPS SELLING.

HOW TO REVIVE A Dead BOOK ON AMAZON

As a kindle author, this is one of the things that you will come across. Sometimes, a book that has been selling and pulling income to your dashboard can stop selling. On other times, it will give you sufficient notice, reducing the amount of sales gradually until everything becomes lifeless. When that happens, what do you do?
I know many Gurus in the house will tell you move on with other books and publish more books. That is true. Why waste time working on the book when you can publish a new title and make money from it.

I agree with that perception. However, you can make changes to your keywords and revive the book.


I had one book which sold some few copies when I put it on kindle. The sells for the book later dried like a cistern beaten by severe draught. Any time I gaze at my dashboard, other books were like a miracle wand bring in sales. But for that particular book, it was gathering the dust of inactivity. On one weak day, I decided to work on the book . I did research for new keywords. I changed the keywords a little. After I did that, I sold two copies in two days. Then the book later picked up sales and sold 4 copies on createspace. I made over 20 plus USD on that title alone for paper back. That is small, but at at least, it added to my sales and I made more money from it. That book, I believe will pick up sales and soon, it will be selling 20-30 copies on creastpace.



So what do you do when your book that was selling stops selling, CHANGE YOUR KEYWORDS AND TITLE TO INCORPORATE THE NEW KEY WORDS.

Amazon pays $0.0052 per page read. So 1692 would be $8.80. Minus 30 percent tax which is $2.64. So the total royalty accrued to you is $6.16. I hope u get the calculation.

bro I hail! pls when publishing ur book on kindle, how did u choose d categories? I asked because some of the categories I want to use on mine are not displaying but they are showing in other pple's published book
Before choosing a category for my book, the first thing I do is to look for similar books that have written on the topic and model the categories they choose.

When uploading your book on kindle, here's how to choose a good category for your book:

If your book is about blogging, just find a category that has the word blog in it.

I don't know if you got my point. I'm not too active on NL, it's very boring and the mods annoy me a lot which explains why I'm replying late to your question.

So, send me on whatsapp: 08039185233.

PS: My new kindle book which I shared sometime ago is now #3 in one of my chosen categories.

Not all of your books will sell. If they don't sell, you can do the following, either you write other books, or change the keywords of your book. Give me the link of your book let me see.

There appears to be nothing wrong with your work. The cover is great. I recommend that you worke on your keywords. Else, keep writing more books because not all of your books will sell.
