lanre316: The problem here is publishing without researching to find out if the niche is profitable with a high demand and fewer competitors, failures to do this will send all your published books to what is known as the book graveyard. 1 Like |

zummy45: This is why some self-published authors make zero dime. You don't jump into any niche because someone else is making sales on that niche. You need to first determine the profitability of the niche, the demand for that niche and the number of competitors on that niche. If the outcome of your research gives you a green light on that niche, then you can proceed to create a book on that niche. 2 Likes |

lanre316: Paul is a go to source for anyone interested in making low content books but I tell people to run as far as their legs can carry them from making low content books. Low content books are like gambling. You need to create a lot of them because you don't know the one that will generate sales and the royalty payment is so small, therefore you need to sell a lot to generate any meaningful royalty payment. One well written non-fiction book will generate more royalty payments than 10 low content books. 2 Likes |

LogicBomb8: I subscribed to creative fabrica and canva Pro. I download interiors from CF and modify them a bit on canva to make them unique. You also need to have done keyword research to know what to publish. YouTube channel: I recommend Paul Merles and Stacking Profit 2 Likes |

byrron: Is cryptocurrency books highly profitable? |
Re: How a Novice Started Making Money on Amazon KDP. by Nobody: 7:24pm On Aug 23, 2022 |
Solanaa: The answer to that question is by conducting a profitability research on that niche or keyword before venturing into writing a book on it. You need to find out if the niche has a high demand with a low competition and if their are authority figures that have already published books on that niche. There are other factors to consider as well that are not stated herein. 1 Like |

byrron:Bro is there like a limited or minimum number of pages or words one should note before publishing? I just finished writing and I feel it is too small or something.. 3 pages |
Re: How a Novice Started Making Money on Amazon KDP. by Nobody: 3:05pm On Sep 02, 2022 |
R2bees2: All my my non-fiction books are 10 chapter's with a minimum of 30,000 words and a maximum of 35,000 word's. This strategy enables me to price my books within $15 - $20 range which generates a royalty within the range of $6 - $8 / sold book. This is one of the reasons I don't advise anyone to publish low content books because of the low royalty it generates and you will have to sell lots of low content books in other to start being profitable. 4 Likes 1 Share |

byrron:30!! Gini? Omo, so one can't publish low content and place high price, I think it's about quality and not quantity. What qualifies a low and high content? Thanks brotherly |

Pls I need a mentor on this kdp stuff am totally new and want to explore my chances. |
Re: How a Novice Started Making Money on Amazon KDP. by Nobody: 7:01pm On Sep 04, 2022 |
Dorchlink: Before seeking for a mentor, what personal efforts have you made towards researching or reading about what Kindle Direct Publishing is all about? Are you going into it with the right mindset and willing to commit towards learning, implementing what was learned and staying committed? KDP is serious business and it has it's learning curve just like every other businesses out there. It is a digital real estate that is also very rewarding at the long run when done rightly but again, there is no overnight success in this business model. Do a self appraisal and determine for yourself if you have the right motive and mindset to embark on this self-publishing journey. Wishing you the very best. 1 Like |

Galacious1: Very nicely. I want to ask if any of your book has ever been blocked in your book shelf so far. And if yes like how many. |
Re: How a Novice Started Making Money on Amazon KDP. by Galacious1: 7:49pm On Oct 24, 2022 |
Mcslize:In February 2 books were blocked because an author decided to trademark the term I used for the title. |
Re: How a Novice Started Making Money on Amazon KDP. by Mcslize: 8:55am On Oct 25, 2022 |
Galacious1: Oh. I see. One of my books was recently blocked. The mistake was from me though. I later identified the reason. As per the bolded, you're right. Some titles are actually trademark by some authors. No other person can write on them. That's why I always check if there are other books on a title before writing on it. If I notice only one author write on the title, I quickly stay off. It could be trade marked. |
Re: How a Novice Started Making Money on Amazon KDP. by U1(m): 11:57am On Oct 25, 2022 |
I have always wondered how people are able to make money from KDP publishing, especially with a book of like 3,000 words. This is because there are free blog posts via Google that seem to do a great job on some topics that the books cover. Could someone shed light on this, please? CC Galacious1 Mcslize |
Re: How a Novice Started Making Money on Amazon KDP. by Nobody: 3:25pm On Oct 25, 2022 |
Mcslize: The best practice is to do a trademark research on any keyword you intend to write on before proceeding to write the book. With this strategy, you already know keywords that are trademarked and then avoid them like a plague. 1 Like |
Re: How a Novice Started Making Money on Amazon KDP. by Mcslize: 1:48pm On Oct 26, 2022 |
byrron: Of course, that's true. But there some titles specifically written by popular authors that one just can't write on even though it's not trademark when searched on uspto.gov. For example, the title adult children of emotionally immature parents. Should one write on that title above, it will automatically be flagged by Amazon. Those are some of the type of titles I was referring to. I want to ask. What font type and font size do you usually use for the body text of your books, and what line spacing? 1 Like |
