motivator4:
please i'm new here. i finished this my book since last year August and its rolling out in machine (hard copy). i'm even almost through with my second book. all my effort to publish by first book in amazon has been fruitless. i really need help in publishing my book in amazon. i'm stocked at the bank selection. they keep saying they don't pay to banks in my location Nigeria. i don't know if there is any other alternative.

please someone should come to my rescue. thanks.

Best, skip that bank area for now and fill the info and start publishing your books. When you receive your payoneer info you can add that

fantastical:
Copy coach... and one more thing, is it wise to apply for paperback?

Yes, Put all your books in Paperback

fantastical:
Can someone help here. I have uploaded my ebook successfully on kdp, but the pricing is the problem since the minimum amount to enter is $2.99. How much does a book that has 141pages (46,827) cost? i need an urgent response please.

You should price a 46k words book for 3.99 or more. Mine with that page number is priced around 4.99. But the sales is just once in a while, like 10 copies a month

HazzanTazzan:
still buying your payoneer funds, skrill and btc.
2000$ payoneer needed urgently

I have 1800$ Payoneer. what's your rate

mk82:
I have a reliable Payoneer buyer but I want the new dollar rate to stabilize before selling this week.

Hmm. Do you see this dollar stabilized? At what point?

Godmother:
Usually I doubt people who drop such a high figure of their earnings. But I'm following two of your books and I know they are numbers 3 and 5 respectively in the niche you chose. Congrats and continue to remain another inspiration to some of us.

Hmm. Beloved, thank you for monitoring me o. But hope not DSS sha?

I'm truthful. it's even more sef. I no wan talk the real figure to avoid unnecessary questions.

My goal is to make 5,000$ monthly. So you can see that we've not even started.

Thanks

AncientTimes:
Abi O, TEll Am

Where are those Payoneer buyers. Call me. I'm getting some tomorrow to sell at good rate. Please call me if only your rate is better than others

mk82:
Amen to your prayer. We'll keep doing all we can to help. This your drink that you've been promising, let it not become one trailer load before we see o!

lol.

It will come sha.

please do you have a reliable Payoneer buyer for good rate. I need to sell some

mk82:
Thank you for becoming one of the few that have the staying power to break through their beginner's challenges. That's where many give up. Only the rugged survive in this business. If you keep it up, you'll be earning over $1000 per month in the next 6 months.

Oga Mk82, your oil will never run dry.

From November last year, I've never made anything less than 1,000$. I really need to see you, just to buy you a bottle of drink.

I remain ever grateful.

AncientTimes:
Bros 1234, God bless you for all you have done for me too. For listening to me, when I was still a baby in online business. Groping about, seeking for direction. God used you to help me. But sir, I can say that by the mercies of God, I have learned a lot from you and from others on this thread. Now, I can format my books for createspace with expertise, I can format books for kindle within 30 minutes at the most. What about cover, I design covers for both createspace and Kindle with such touch of expertise.

For some people this might be small, but for me, where I am is a function of God's grace and mercies. I blessed his name for his help so far and giving me the privileged to receive income from this business.
MY earning so far.
Creatpsace
$ 135.96
£ 3.23
€ 4.29

While in KDP, so far this what has happened to my account.
Kdp U. S $ 54.60
KDP UK £ 5.07
KDP ES : € 1.67
KDP Canada: $ 5. 44
KDP AUS $ 2.77

NOTE BEST: I Began serious kdp online business in January. This is my second month and you can see an increase in my income. The month is not even finished yet . Praise God.

In this month, I was so busy, I didnt even publish any book as such. But see what God done with my account. Take a step, earn money online.

My good friend, congratulations. it's such a joy to see you and others making it from this thread.

I'll be looking forward to your video.

CreateSpace seems to be doing you great. please keep it up. I'm sure you'll never go below this, cos the Bible says the path of the just shines brighter and brighter.

Please do not be distracted like me, who have not published anything since November last year and just glorying in past works. This is all I beg you.

Amazon Kindle and CreateSpace had changed my life. January gave me over $2500. This February has generated over $1,600, yet no new books since last year.

May God help us to succeed more than our imagination.

March is my month of repentance and publishing of at least 5 books.

Cheers

1.8m ready buyer

Colynx:
I need to ask the OP and ancientTimes some questions.

1. How many books do you have on the KDP platform?
2. What of createspace?
3. Is the free promo still effective way of getting the words out about your book?

Thanks

1. 28 books

2. 15 books

3. Yes

slimjoe007:
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.

Thanks for replying before me.

@ AncientTimes, sales this month has been a bit slow. $850 so far in KDP US and $97 in UK and $200 in CreateSpace

Though it's lesser than that of last month, I give God praise

Keywords are right there in Amazon themselves. If you go to Amazon, click on your search bar and make sure that it is in the kindle store option. To ensure that it is on the kindle store, click on a small arrow by your left and then select kindle store. Then type What your book is all about slowly in thr search bar and see what amazon will suggest to you. Then click on each key word. Let says, you wrote a book on anger management, when you type anger management, then you will see options that amazon will suggest. Once you have done that, click on each one. Then check on the first 5 books that rank for that key words. They should have the bestseller rank of 10,000 to 30, 000 or less. That mean that there is money in that keyword. For further keywords, type anger management a, type b, c, then D....... Till Z to see the words that will be suggested to you. After that, then make sure that you use some of the keyword in your book title and subtitle. For me, my principle is to combine at least 3— 5 keywords in my title and subtitle. It will give you a higher chance of ranking your book on thr first page of search engine optimization (SEO).

I have been trying this and it works. Some of my books are now ranking on the first page of Amazon search page. For category, look at similar books on the keywords that you are writing and then add thr same category.



My advice to you is to study more on keywords in google. Study more about it. God bless you.

Great advise. Thanks

AncientTimes:
How many dollars did they even charge, I can't tell. They almost finished the money in my account. I will never use their card again for any reason. These people and their ways.

Its not wise to use ATM to cash your Payoneer dollars. Not wise at all. Always, always use an exchanger.

Payoneer also charges about 29.9 annual card maintenance fee.

olatuneji:
@Ancienttimes you are really doing a wonderful and fabulous job,I was so elated when I read through your earning success of January and how far u have gone,believe me I have been following track of you since last year October,I so much admire how persistence and hardworking you are.I am an unemploy graduate it was my desire for making money online that made me stumble on this op tread around sept last year which made me make up my mind of going into writing when I sort out issue with my laptop soonest.
@op and @ancienttimes u have really given me hope.
Lastly hope u don't mind putting me through whenever I am ready also I want to ask so as to prepare my mind ready,the $10 premium of copyscape is it to be paid monthly or yearly.

You're welcome bro. Feel free to ask any question

AncientTimes:
Can I transfer my payoneer funds to a bank in the U. S and have somebody send me a dollars.

No experience with this

Hello everyone. It's a beautiful weekend.
A new book of mine just went live this morning
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01NAVKS3K/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1484995765&sr=8-1&pi=SL75_QL70&keywords=What+every+guy+ought+to+know+about+dating+jeff+nichols
Any encouragement?

Bro, good effort.

Your book looks fine but...

1. Improve the cover design.
2. My experience with the dating niche is that its a hard sell. My dating and relationship books are the worse in the market...in terms of sales.. I dont know why.

3. Go ahead and explore other niches, apart from the dating niche.

Cheers

AncientTimes:
God bless all men in this thread. I also intend to make a video on how I make my paper back cover for createspace. It will help any other person on this thread to make a simple book cover . I will leave the link on this page. And I also want to make a video on how I format my book cover for createspace. It will help someone tomorrow on this thread.

Great. Great. Great.

Pls do and lets all benefit.

AncientTimes:
@OP, GOD BLESS YOU FOR OPENING THIS THREAD. and for MK82 who has made this publishing dream a reality, God bless him also. one of my paper back, on anger management has sold 17 copies already. Every day, the Sales like 4 to 5 copies daily. God bless you. And God bless all of us who are into this business in the mighty name of Jesus.

17 copies? Wow. Once again, congrats and welcome to the club.

Joseid:
@AncientTimes, keeping going bruh.
Can you send me any of your create space final design for book covers?
I'd just like to get one for comparison with the one I'm working on.
Thanks.

The essence of this thread is for us to help one another. So please @AncientTimes, help a brother. Pls kindly send him what he has requested.

Blessings

AncientTimes:
Mr. OP. thank you for opening this thread. My book on anger management achieved a small fit. I noticed that Amazon has given it an orange status or badge with the badge "#1 New Release." Though I am still expecting the Kindle version to sell more copies, but so far, the paper back has been performing well than the others. It has sold some few copies. It is now #42 in the anger management nice.


Then my second book, The Blood Type Diet is still number #1 on the New Hot Release it in the 2 categories i listed it. Then in the paid rank, it just hit number 2 in blood type diet sub niche and number 3 in another sub niche. There is no greater encouragement than this. I will strife more for qualities books.

Op, God bless you for this thread. I will keep on, one day and soon, I will be hiring my Goal of a thousand dollars monthly from KDP.

Congratulations bro. Like I said, you are doing so well. Make sure all your books have paperback versions. CreateSpace will attach the paperback near the kindle. Thats how it works.

Pls dont forget, write more. Keep writing. Thats the key. Imagine if you have 50 books on Amazon this year. Imagine that.

I'm glad that you can now see that what I'm saying is true.

I need deliverance from laziness. Have not written anything this year. Lol

More blessings.

AncientTimes:
Yes, one should worry about that. I got this picture from pixabay, it is a royalty free image.
