My First Year Publishing on Amazon KDP: What Publishing 200 Books Taught Me About Research, Book Covers, Keywords, Product Listings, A+ Content and Sales

Thinking about publishing on Amazon KDP, but unsure where to start?

Or have you already published books and found yourself wondering why they aren't selling?

During my first year publishing on Amazon KDP, I created approximately 200 books, sold 392 copies and generated £1,336 in sales.

Some books sold.

Some surprised me.

Some didn't sell at all.

And those books often taught me the most.

My First Year Publishing on Amazon KDP shares the practical lessons I learned over 12 months of creating, publishing, testing, and improving my books.

This isn't a promise of overnight income.
