Pls read the top benefits of publishing on kindle here. I'll fill you in with everything you need to get started on Amazon for free! Let's start with the benefits first!


Kindle books are great for the digital generation.

Although you can certainly make money selling Kindle books, many authors publish books in Kindle format and sell them for a very low price since their primary goal is not to generate income directly through selling their Kindle books on Amazon, but rather to get leads.

Immediate Exposure
In roughly 48 hours it is possible to have a great number of visitors finding your book online. With self-publishing on the Kindle, each ebook is assigned its own page on the Amazon website, together with product options including reviews and ratings. If you can get some great reviews, that can be a huge boost to your sales. And don’t forget people don’t need a computer to access the site. Mobile gadgets across the world can have unlimited access to your published content. This translates to instant exposure with little or no cost at all.

You can publish a paperback edition of your book for free. It costs nothing to publish a paperback edition of your book. You can do it on KDP, Createspace, or even sell direct to bookstores around the world with Ingram Spark. Your book only gets printed when somebody buys it. You have no inventory lying around and no up-front expense — just instant profit.

You have the lion's share
You can start earning money quickly, and if you price your book between $2.99 and 9.99, Amazon gives you 70% of the cut. Not a bad deal considering they let you use their technology to publish your ebook, and then help you promote it on their massive eCommerce platform with millions of regular visitors.

It’s cheap. No publisher fees. No printing costs. You can even create a print version of your book based on the eBook version, with a service called CreateSpace. Overall you’re looking at very minimal costs of $20-50 for cover design (a good cover is SO important for sales, more on this later), $20-50 for a proofreader or editor, and that’s about it for getting your book out.

You may want to ask me questions here by commenting. Btw if you're already a writer and wants to format your ebook to kindle style (mobi) , you may want to message me (by checking my profile for my gmail contact) in order to hire an extremely professional programmer to convert your word doc to your kindle format before uploading on Kindle.

Hi there, hope you're well. First of all, you must resist your mythological ideology by helping your wife accomplish her goal instead of suppressing her. BTW,

Btw, get an editor for your wife (to maximize every benefit that good reviews can give), and create an account on kindle. Let me know when you're ready to publish by commenting here again or writing to me on gmail.com. You should learn to utilize Mr Google too.

Yes,I thought about getting an Editior,been lazy about it too.I have gone through her chapter 1-5 and there are plenty errors, grammatical ones especially BUT it's still a very interesting piece I must confess.Where can I get a not so pricy but good editor? Again should I ask her to open the Kindle account right away or till she publishes?

She is also good in short stories.

Grammatical errors are the worst impression to leave on your manuscript. It goes a long way in belittling a book. Btw, you can open your Kindle account and open Payoneer account to withdraw your earnings too.

You can get an editor who will tailor things according to your wants @ upwork.com. There are excellent choices of editors to make there.
