Editor's Notes

- What is Amazon Kindle? It is an e-book reader designed allowing us to read digital reading materials A user device used in browsing, buying, downloading and reading digital media from the Kindle Store. What is KDP Select? KDP stands for Kindle Direct Publishing It is a program developed by Amazon Once you enrolled in the KDP Select program, you commit to make the digital format of your book exclusively available only through KDP Distributing the book on other online store is not allowed for 90-day period.
- Why use KDP Select? There are also some factors why you should consider publishing your book on KDP Select. Though you have the downside of not being able to publish your book on other online store but still it is worth it since Amazon is one of the most popular eBook store. Here are the reason why you should use KDP Select: It allows you to run up to 5 days of free promotions During the 90 day exclusive promotion of your book to Amazon, you are given discount prices You will also get paid whenever an Amazon Prime member borrowed your book with their one free book credit each month You will earn up to 70% royalty sales You are in control of your rights and own price list You can distribute globally and in the Kindle Ecosystem
- In the summer of 2014, Amazon introduced Kindle Unlimited. With the price of $10 per month, you can borrow up to 10 titles at once And an unlimited total in a month Authors are paid a percentage of the base fund as long as the borrower read at least 10% of the borrowed book. Authors discovered that they could make a lot of money from the borrows that they get from the readers.
- In the summer of 2015, another program was introduced with a lot of major changes. They called it as KU2 (Kindle Unlimited 2). The major difference between the Kindle Unlimited and the KU2 is that instead of paying the author when the reader got to 10% of the book, they would start paying for the number of pages read. They started out with the amount around $0.0057. These changes has been of great advantage for authors who had very long books. But others also states that it meant a huge drop in income for other authors.
- You may ask, Is KDP Select Worth it? I could say, YES! Since KDP Select is very important from a Promotional Standpoint. Once someone subscribes in Kindle Unlimited, it would give their book a Boost in the best seller rankings. The free days promotion offered by KDP is already a bonus! You can promote and increase the potential readers that would notice your book just by running a free promotion.
- Reviews A review is an important factor that determines the popularity and the quality of the books that you published. Getting positive reviews from the readers indicates that you have done a great job with the content in your book. And with the help of these positive reviews, a lot of potential readers will read your book. There are 2 Kinds of Reviews First, ARC (Advance Review Copy). It is the a review given before the book’s publication Second, Review Copy. It is a review after the book has been published. You have to bear in mind that Amazon strictly forbids any form of bribery to get positive reviews from the readers. But Amazon doesn’t count offering free copy of your book in exchange for an honest review. Where to find Reviewers? You can find reviewers for your book in: Facebook & GoodReads.
- To be able to attract people to provide reviews in the book that you are promoting, you can join Facebook Groups. Facebook Group is: Different from a Fan Page With Facebook Group, members are allowed to post messages that would appear in the timeline unlike the Fan Page. You must also be mindful that some Facebook Groups sets rules on the frequency of posting Ads. So you have to read the groups rules before joining. Another place that you can look for people to provide review is GoodReads. GoodReads is: Site specifically for readers A great place to approach people Promote to people who read books similar to yours
