Thank you! Looks complicated, but just a couple more hoops to jump through after a ten year journey 🙂
This video is soo clear to understand about amazon kindle thank you soo much!!!
Amazon KDP Publicshing is a scam.
Awesome advice- clear and concise. Thanks Dave. 😀
Dave, this has been invaluable; thanks so much. I am looking forward to uploading my short guide to first-time writers, 'Becoming a Writer: Plus--How to get a literary agent'. Keep up the good work.
Hi! I am wondering if you are just publishing a hardcover copy of an already published paperback, do you select "I am ready to publish now" or "this book has already been published" in the preorder section? THANK YOU for your help and your videos.
Everytime I launch the previewer my book is shown sideways and half the pages.. I tried EVERYTHING for the last couple of days and I simply don't know what to do anymore, anyone that could help me? I would very much appreciate it.
I am having the same exact issues😢
I also having same.
It got to be with the margins around the book . Is s one time setting for the whole book.
It has a setting number like:
.5 for the outer margin and
.66 for the gutter margins
.55 bottom margin
.66 header
Now kindle has it own settings.
Look for it.
Lower margins

It has to do with the margin
Header
Gutter

Kindle has it own margin.
Look for it.

Which service do you use to create stunning book cover and not fear violating copyright or trademark? Thank you for your time and kindness. Craig

Glad it was helpful!
@@Kindlepreneur hello! SO i did all that, but can you please explain which link to use to direct social media followrs to purchase the book?? Thank you!
I'm new here and I didn't see you doing the margins for the book page.
That is the number one problem people are having.
The headers,inner,outter
Bottom and gutter numbers.
What the deal?
Thank you soooooo much for being so incredible. This video is extremly helpful.
Enjoy!
I’m having issues with publishing my book on the paperback. My cover that I created is to large on the book and my manuscript is overlapping with the pages on the paperback. I need help with the margins and stuff so that they fix on one page. Can someone help me with that bc kindle has a guide but it doesn’t help much
Once I update my preferences while publishing an e book in KDP can I change any of the features later .
Hi, I created a book on MS Word 2013 in size 5x8inches. Now, when I am converting it to pdf via microsoft pdf, it converts as a4/letter size and there's no other option to print as 5x8inches. even though on the print page, size shows custom page size 5x8inches. still won't print in desired size. please help, I can't wait to publish my first book :)
That's an amazing video. I'm having my short book ready and looking for ways to upload in Amazon. This could be very helpful, I'm saving this video now 🌟
Amazon KDP Publishing scammed me for close to 4 thousand dollars.
My e-book was in (pdf) format, I converted it to (kpf) using (Kindle Create) and then I uploaded it to Amazon, and in the item (Kindle eBook Preview) a message appeared saying (Your book cannot be downloaded) I do not know what I should do to solve this The problem I want you to advise me to solve it quickly.
That's one of the problems with Kindle Create
Hello
I understand what ya going through as I have also experienced a lot of difficulty as an author
I advise you hire an expert who can help you out with this
This will make things easier for you
Do you perhaps have one already??
thank you for your information! I am wondering, though, how are ebooks usually priced? is it according to page number? I am unsure how to price mine, as there is not printing cost of an ebook...
I don't know how to check the description. Where is the description button?
Hi Dave,
When filling the Title and Subtitle do we have to enter the "colon (:) punctuation mark" after the Title of our book?
Or will it be added automatically once the book is published?
Please check the below example. I'm talking about the colon after the Title (the word beginners).
[New Diabetic Cookbook for Beginners: Easy, Tasty & Low-Carb Recipes for the Whole Year]
Also is it ok to add both Title and Subtitle in the Title box together? (I mean without adding a subtitle)
Thank you.
Thanks Dave, i have uploaded my ebook and its been on "Publishing" and not gone live for almost a month now. what do i do
Hi I am from India.. Can I publish my ebook on kindle and how can I check the pricing in INR
Thank you for making a great tutorial!
Thanks for this! What format does the ebook need to be in for upload? Word? PDF? Other?
Just about every book market requires a ePub file.
Hello please can someone help me I followed all the steps and I’ve been able to upload an ebook on Amazon on my book shelf it’s showing that it’s available on Amazon but when people are buying they said they it’s unavailable for purchase please help me out
Thanks a mil Dave for your great video..Peace !

I am having trouble with my upload. Im doing a ebook. It says it uploaded fine but when i go to preview it it is messed up and words or sentences arent where they should be. I tried it with both pdf and word . Someone please tell me how to fix this. I am new to this and would appreciate help. Thank you
Thank you so much. What can you do when you don't have a bank account yet? 😢 I am in Africa and what I have isn't a bank
Online bank account should work thats what I use. Hope this help
For Ebook AND Paperbook, see 1'11", what to choose if I intend to publish both ? Which to choose 1st if must choose 1?
Thanks Dave. Have a great day! 😊
Why do you click no in the DMR instead of Yes?
sir..sir..sir..please answer me..please..can i create ebook using ms word and publish it in amazon kindle. will my book be compatible for uploading. pls tell me sir..should I choose other way.
How well are you doing on Kindle? Will you mentor me through the process?
Thank you ❤ for the explanation
So I created a KPF file for a client on Kindle Create and have been trying to send it to them but it doesn't open on their side , What can i do about it?
And how do you do it without any reference to Kindle which I don't have and don't want?
What if I’m doing paperback instead of ebook? Will it give me different options based on my selection?
Basically the same exact process.
thanks for this.
manuscript means what? just the words or the pages with illustrations? already in a PDF format? or what format?
Dave, would you have any idea why an author's books, author page won't come up in a search on Amazon? Every author I have searched for, their book and/or author page will come up. When I search mine, neither comes up. Makes it hard for reader's to find me/my books. Thanks.
Hello there
I understand your problem as I have experienced it myself before
But the best thing to do in the situation is to hire an expert who can help you out with this
Do you perhaps have one?
@@tammymessagemeoninstagramm1316 Thanks for the tip, but I'm not sure what kind of expert I should look for. (?) A few days ago I tried to find my eBook (in KU) and my print (thru AMZ). I typed in my author name and the print book wasn't even listed in the "Books" store! I checked each of the 70 or so pages of search results. Not found! I realize the book isn't new, but what's the point of having books there if customers can't find them?I've contacted AMZ, but they don't seem to get that NO ONE can find my books unless they type in the exact title, which nobody does. I've searched hundreds of author names that are close to my ranking and EVERY one of their books show on page 1 of the results. Sorry for the long story, but I'm just a little frustrated.
@@defletcher2902 Hi, did you manage to sort this out?
What is the format that kindle accepts? PDF OR DOC.X?
Keep your file in DOCs
Hello pls why am I having difficulties in uploading my kindle format, it keeps give me this error message saying kindle format not supported? What is the possible solution.
thanks for everything ...awasome video
Pl tel the right book size to publish e book in kindle
Hi please what file can I use to open zip/ebook cover in Amazon
I published my book as an Ebook; now I want to publish a paperback version. When I chose that option on my account, it says I must upload a .pdf or .doc, but I don't have a .doc file updated with changes I made to the Kinde Create format, including photos! Why can't I just upload my Kindle Create file & choose Paperback?
Like I said in the video, Kindle Create is very limited and only works for creating ebooks.
@@Kindlepreneur It seems to be too difficult to format a print version of my Ebook. I did most of the formatting of the Ebook using Kindle Create, not MS Word. My poems are all out of alignment, the other text before & after the body are not in my .doc, & neither are a few photos used. I thought Amazon could convert the format of an Ebook into a print book
What about Expanded Distribution? Isn't there some place you have to check to get that?
What is the best option, uploading as a PDF or Word file?
What if I live in Europe or Latin America?
why i upload pdf file of my book, launch preview show it in a different way from canva. In canva i want words lying on picture, previewer show words and picture seperated. thanks so much
Thank you for this video, Dave! It's great! I was hoping you would show more of your book in the preview. I have illustrated a book you see, and the plan was to publish it as an ebook. At the time, I assumed I would convert it to PDF (or the other ebook-friendly formats), so I went all out with the illustration. Now I'm stuck. KDP doesn't like any of the ones I have tried (epub, PDF, etc...)
Is it possible to publish a heavily illustrated ebook on KDP?
Do you know if you unsubscribe to Kindle Unlimited if you will still have access to the book title you published?
Do you happen to have a video on book launch ideas and strategies?
I have seen some videos on other channels talking about having your book read by some people before it's launch and that way they are able to leave reviews? Wouldn't Amazon flag them without seeing a purchase?
And since Amazon cares about sales, how important are the reviews for the algorithms? If they are making sales, they would rank it up regardless, no?
Thanks in advance.
Hi! Can I use the same keywords for my e-book and paperback? What do you recommend?
Am from Zambia 🇿🇲 my country is not available on the section where I need to choose a bank what can I do
If you do not have an Amazon account, how do you open it up to get an Amazon account because I can’t get in it says Kdp is not available
Kdp select seem as if only kindle user can purchase your ebooks am I right? cause I created a book today and someone with a iPhone could now purchase the book
thank you
Is it the same if i wanted to sell a notebook/journal
How can I add extra images if my book so it can be seen in Amazon
Google it
So in the video, you said that there is a separate section for the cover. I've created my ebook in google docs as a completed book, including photos. Does that not work for Kindle?
thank you so much sir
I have a question and I hope that someone can get back to me on this as soon as possible. I don't have an ISBN for my book, but would it be ok if I upload my book without one? Thanks
If you upload to Amazon you don't need a ISBN.
@@Kindlepreneur Thank you for your response. I appreciate it and hope you are doing wonderful!
Great content!
my epub looks fine in Apple Pages but after uploading to Amazon and previewing its all wrong/
thanks Steve-o!
Thank you
As always, thank you for your generosity!
how about the ' isbn' I think you didn't mention it ?

ISBN kindle Ebook
Thanks!
The description part of the upload is not working. Its simply not working
tnx
Please how can I upload a book and I will be the one to supply the book to Amazon
im getting trademark do you recommend to wait to have it
or start since i do deveral venues of selling in amazon
I'm not a lawyer, so please don't take this response as legal advice: I wouldn't wait for Trademark because publishing doesn't hinder it in any way (as far as I know), and I'm actually pretty sure it helps your claim in that there proposed Trademark is out in public.
How can i upload pdf e book on amazon book?
@kindelpreneur
i have a huge question, how can i add more pictures to my post of amazon kdp?
You can add images In your docs as much as you want
Great tutorial. Thanks! How can one in Africa (Nigeria) cash out after sales of books? You didn't talk on that. Pls, do. Thanks!
The book file in word.doc format it doesn't come out well...I still don't know why today 😥
How to upload a book from a country that is not supported by Amazon?
4:16 more categories
What if you used some AI to help write your book?
Great video! But you skipped how to upload the manuscript. That's where I'm struggling.
Thanks but that is covered @5:20 in the video. It's literally just clicking the upload manuscript, selecting the file from your computer and voila. Now, if your question is how do you prepare your manuscript for upload, that's a completely different subject. The answer depends on which software you used to format your manuscript into the appropriate file - something like Atticus.io does the trick.
good video
Smart
Do they give you the option of selling hard copies?
Yes, paper backs and hardcovers do exist
@@CazDesignStudiosPls can I still use paperback and hard copy at the same time??
I'm so confused......
So i upload my cover, the manuscript, description etc....where do i upload the actual content of my book?
Exactly at 5:27 in the video. That’s where you upload the manuscript or content of your book.
@@Kindlepreneur what formats can be used?
My 1st book ,tubular dudes i want to put on for free , computers are not my world , how do i get help ive asked on f book no joy
this did not help were do we click a adtp
Amazon KDP took $4000 from me and then said Amazon will not handle my book.
How?
@@PinakatayArnis1 They promised to put my book on amazon and even after getting the $799 to process the book, it was not put on Amazon. They knew Amazon rejected it but kept telling me lies to get more money.
Appreciate the tutorial but would have been easier to have all step in one place and not having to go to all other of your tutorials to find steps that could have been added here.
