Research the Bestselling Authors and Books in Your Particular Niche or Genre
Are there certain authors in your niche or genre that seem to be amongst the bestsellers, time and time again? Perhaps they have a huge following or just write incredible books, but the chances are that there are a number of things that you can learn from both them and their books.

Write Compelling Copy that Will Sell Your Book on its Amazon's Sales Page
You may well have written your book, but that doesn't mean you still don't have some more writing to do. This particular type of writing is totally different to the creative writing you have been doing up until this point. And requires a totally different skill set.
In the section on Copywriting, you will learn:
- How to write a good title for your book

An Over-the-shoulder Look At How To Publish a Book on the Amazon Kindle Store
Once you have researched the ideal categories and keywords for your book and have also written the perfect copy, the next stage is of course to actually go onto KDP and publish your book.
And I thought the best way to show you how to do this was to take you step-by-step through the Kindle Publishing process.

- How to enter your book details
- How to expand on the book description you have written and create a description for your Amazon Sales Page

Before you click on that Publish button, you still have a very important decision to make, namely whether to place your book exclusively with KDP Select.
And in the section on Selecting, you will find out:
- The advantages of KDP Select
