One of my best books just went down to 3rd page and no sales for a week. I noticed new books with reviews have taken its place.

How do I get it back to first page?

From your statement, I believe you have been on 1st page without having reviews, so you already know.
It's all about ranking, if you want to be there organically, otherwise you go for AMS.
To rank you need to make more sales. So how do you get more sales!! It's about time to make a video for the book or an email campaign ( which I know is a long shot for many authors).

But you didn't say if its a kindle or paperback , so I have generalized my response.

It's both paperback and ebook. Best the paperback sells much more.
I guess AMS means running ads on Amazon. I'll try set that up.

I don't have a mailing list, so that option would not be viable at the moment. I want to try the video making. How to I get it done

You search for the main keywords of your book and see if your book shows up, and which page it's placed

Please the link on where to search for the keywords. Are pre order books also ranked?

5 books published already and just a single sale. No review yet and I have zero idea on what to do next. It's over three weeks already. Guys, abeg make una help me.


And I don't have money for ads.

All4good:

Your book is simultaneously published in more than 7 markets, one of which is the UK market.

So log into your dashboard and copy your book's UK link and send to her.

If I may ask, how did she reach you?

That's what i did and it worked.

To make sales , you must advertise or rank on page one or two.


To make sales now, you need
A good topic
A good book cover
A good keyword to rank
A re- engineering keywords research methods
A tutor to guide you

And finally try set aside some money bfor advertisement

Is kdp still profitable ? Oh yes.

Try focus on other markets

Other distributor s like draft2 digital.

Please don't take this the wrong way, i'm only highlight and not judging, am also procrastinating cause i should be writing. Anyways, that's pretty much asking him to tell you exactly how he is making money, which others have paid for, not that that's a problem, it's his choice, but you can find a lot of free stuff here and on similar thread to get you going.

As for learning how, it's a learning process, you act and see what works and what doesn't, i've been looking into this since sept 2019 and made my first upload about 2 weeks ago and all i've gotten is one ebook sale and 3 kenp reads, how demoralizing is that, except i don't feel it at all, was even expecting it, plus all the motivation from others, definitely not an expert and still have a long way to go.

Tip, know where you need to work on and work on it, don't know for you, but the fact that you made sales from free books and not for those you paid for might be cause the quality of your free books are better than the paid one, so writing might be where you need to focus....... which am just realizing is what you asked, well, checkout derek murphy's channel on youtube, you might fing some ideas, esp his something something write a nonfiction book something.

Wow, my longest post on nairaland, that's how bad procrastination can be, i should get back to work now.......

you are correct.

Some books you didn't expect will sell more.

Some books you put all the effort will not sell.

Amazon has so many publishers.
The game has changed.

A poor book on page one or two will make sales.
There are new rules of publishing.

Do you know the rules?

If you don't, there will be a problem.
