I have published a handful of books on KDP. Two books are on my real name and rest of the books are in pen name. I have published ebooks as well as paperback. Amazon had two programs for publishers, kindle and createspace. However, createapace has been phased out.

Am yet to publish any book on any website, but thank you very much for this info, these are the steps one can really follow in other to publish his ebooks or any article that he wants to publish, this thread is very informative and I really appreciate it.

I have tried to publish my books on kdp. But I have never been accepted to work on the forum. I was mailed that they will get back to me but ever since then, I have not been contacted. I will be glad to showcase my talent once accepted.

KDP is probably the best platform for indie authors. However, making money from KDP is really difficult. If you are a first time author, your earnings will be zero no matter what you do. I helped a couple of clients to get their books published on KDP, they could not sell even a single copy.

Amazon Kindle publishing is one of the best online business to venture into as a writer. For example its very easy to sell ebooks on the PLATFORM so far the topic of the book is very hot and relevant to those who are looking for it. One just need to learn the strategy related to it

Publishing might be easy but I don't think making money from your books, whether on Amazon or any other platforms, is easy. You may be able to sell one-two books by asking your friends and family to buy it, but in order to profit, you need to sell a lot of books.

 

[Nomad]

You are right. If your manuscript is ready, you can publish in 5 minutes and in less than 24 hours your book will go live. However, this does not mean your book will start selling and you are making a lot of money. You need to do aggressive marketing, spend a lot of money on ads.

Its wonderful you've made cash with your creativity via Amazon KDP. I never published eBook before to any website nor online store for making money. But i believe, as my love for making Mooney online through writing grows, I'll make that possible.

Creating ebooks is not very difficult of you have writing experience. Since you are already posting on forums, you already have writing experience, you can choose a niche and develop an ebook around that topic.

 

[Justin]

I have created a lot of forum posts, may be 1500. Possibly I have already written book length, but does this make me a writer? I doubt. In order to write books, you need to do serious writing.

Amazon Kindle publishing is one of the best ways in which you can make money online publishing books for free but you definitely need to have knowledge of keyword research in order to get people to buy your book.

 

[HayKay]

Amazon kdp is a sure great alternative to making passive income and one that should be looked into. But to learn the ropes and not start empty or be frustrated. One has to be patient and take courses that'll show you things like what to publish, which niche is hottest and royalty earnings

 

[Josephjossy]

Making money with books have always been a good and better way to make money if you are in love with writing articles and writing books the best way to make money is by making money with something you love to do and something you have passion for what is the best way to make money

 

[Nomad]

I have a half a dozen books on KDP, these books have almost stopped generating royalties for me because I m not doing enough to promoting my books. May be I should start promoting my books.

 

[Justin]

What are the promotion methods you can do to generate sales on your amazon books? I am asking this question because these days I am writing a short book and want to publish on Medium.

This is a nice article thread posted here for us to learn and earn from it at the same time, I don't see any reason why would stop coming to this platform because every day you must learn one or two new things though.

You have done well for putting up the above review about eBook publishing, but you did not tell us if you have account there or not. You did not also tell us how one can earn there or means of payments. Indeed there are so much to learn here apart from earning. Thanks for sharing.
