Hello using a well know exchanger on nairaland is very very safe. However for exchangers that are not so well know u can opt for escrow.

How Escrow Works

You contact the exchanger that you have xyz payoneer for sell and U both agree on a rate. Usually you send the payoneer first then after he receives it, he credits your bank account.

But since you want to use escrow, you tell the exchanger that you know x person very well and he is popular on NL and you would like him to stand as escrow for the transaction.

If x person is popular on NL it is likely that the exchanger will know him and he (the exchanger may agree to the deal).

At this point, the exchanger sends the value of the payoneer funds in Naira to the escrow, the escrow confirms he got the money, you send the payoneer to the exchanger, the exchanger confirms that he got the payoneer then the escrow will now send you the money.

The deal is done. Feel free to ask questions.

PS.

I buy payoneer as high as N440 per $. See my contact on my signature.

Regards

MORNING TIPS.

The Kindle store market is a great one. There are certain things that you need to know.

1) Ever green niche or category.
While sometimes, you write books on a category because you believe that the Category or niche has money flowing in it, however if you can identify ever green niches then you have hit the jackpot. An ever green niche is a niche that will continue to make sales for many years. If you write in that kind of niche, you are likely to see sales continue to roll in little by little daily. Question? How do I identify an ever green niche. First, the niches are normally not competitive. But small niches. But with time, they will become mega niches. The type of books that will be good are usually informations books that are about beginners. Let says comminucation Guide for Beginners. Or in a new formed category by Amazon, you created a book Amazon, you created a beginners book in that category. You make the book rich in information and content. I can tell you that in many years to come, the book will continue sell like fire.

2) Secondly, when your book begins to sale and customers begin to complain about defective quality, the greatest thing you need to do is rush back to the book and edit it. Make necessary changes.
3) keywords and contents.
While keywords will help you to sell your books, but make sure that the content that you are providing is quality one. Keywords is good and ranking your book on the first page of Amazon is wonderful. But when you combine this with poor quality, then you will not get sales even though your books are ranking on the first page of Amazon.



Just a tips for somebody. God bless you.

Morning Tips

Just an advice.
It is important to know that since this is a business, you must have a constant desire for information. Never overgrow your business. Be a constant student and keep learning. Learn every time, from everybody that has something to teach you.
Never be discouraged when writing, if your book is not selling, keep writing. With time the books will sell.

Besides that, if you write a book that is not selling, hold on, be at peace. Keep writing, the books will sell and pick up selling. I give you an example of a book that I wrote in anger management, the book never sold. However, during the month of January, sells picked up and the book sold 19 copies of paper back. It became my second highest book in the month of January for both paper back and Ebook in the US market.



Write and let everybody know that you write.

How's the sales this month?

Thank you sir. Sales have been great. Though they are coming in slowly, but they are steady. I manages to make my first sales from the Canadian market since beginning kindle business. I made two sales from there.


Sorry for the late response. This month has been a lot busy for me, with work and everything. I have not written any book yet. But I have two on my mind to write on. I am looking at it that would be a March Product. And what about you sir? How are sales this month. Some of my titles that I least expected have been generating sales in the other markets



Question for you?


When you make money from other market, how does Amazon pay you? Do they convert it to dollar before paying you. I am talking about sales in Canada and India and Japan. How do they pay you sir? Thanks for the response.
Re: *MODIFIED* Making Money With Publishing on Amazon Kindle, CreateSpace, etc by AncientTimes: 2:54am On Feb 16, 2017
MORNING TIPS
Don't be Discouraged.


As a black man from Nigeria trying to make money from this business, challenfes abound in multides. Sales may not be the same every month. They will fluctuates. Some titles will sell and others will remain, magnetizing dust of the Amazon silence. Does that mean that you have failed, no. Not at all. Your books might be greater in content and quality than the best sellers in many markets, but however, those ones may continue to sell more than you. Just keep writing.

One thing you must do is learn from your mistakes. You may want to grow in quality and in content. Why did this book sold much even after my hard work in it? That is the first place to begin. You may critic yourself.

Next, never be tired of asking questions. Like I said and I will continue to say, we are all learning in this business and to grow, you just learn to ask questions about things you don't know. And when you do, you will begin to see improvements in your quality.

Again, hitting the bestseller list takes a lot of planning and in some cases, miracle. Miracle because there are books that might hit that list that your input was minimal and they will sell like a wild fire burning a very dry harmattan grass. Others, you might need to plan very well.

Upon publication of your Contents, you should try and make the hot new releases List. Every time you open Amazon niche, there are books on the right hand side of the page, which the first three will be displayed. They are the best hot new releases list. When your book hit that list, it is like a bestseller in that category. Because even when people want to check the No. 1 best selling book, your book is displayed along those other books at the right hand side. The more people see your book, the more they will click on it. And the eventually purchase it. To make the No. 1 OR 2 OR 3 on the Hot New Release List, just sell one copy a day. After Thirty days, your book will be removed from that hot New Releases List. So make the most of it.

Advertising your books is also an indispensable tool for driving sales. Before your free promotion begins, Google, Kindle free ebooks promotion. Some of them are free, others are paid for them to feature your books. Then submit your books to them and they will send it to their members. They will increase your changes of downloads which will impact massively on your ranking when the book changed to paid ranking.


I made a post on ever green niches. I think it is important to know that these niches are key to constant flowing income. When you see a niche especially small niche that has no beginners book there and that niche is new in Amazon, invest in it. The reason why I say this is because I have seen a book while searching on Amazon last year on Paleo Diet for Beginners. That book has been changing in ranking. But I can assure you that it is always within the 1st 20 or 40. As at the time of this writing, the book is No. Bestseller in all categories. Why? Because when this niche was starting out in 2012 or so, the writer quickly wrote a book on beginners. It means that every person beginning the diet will always need his help at one point or the other.


You see what I mean.

My next post in how do you know that a particular keyword is selling? You will discover when you search out this keywords, there are many that will be there. But how do you determine which of them is actually being searched? You may pick a particular keyword and think that it will sell, however, that keyword might just be searched just 10 times every month. Next post, I will tell you something about knowing the keywords with the highest number of searches.


I will also tell you how to get keywords ideas when your book is sometimes finding it difficult to get a particular keywords.

Yes, Amazon converts the money you make in other markets whether from the Uk, Canada, Japan, German or any other market into dollars and that the equivalent you get deposited into your payoneer account. This process is automatic there is no setting for this.
