    You KDP book title is one of the essential components for getting your no content and low content books ranked on Amazon. If you can rank on the first page for a search term you get more traffic, more people see your book and so your chances of making sales increases. One of the key components to this is using keywords in your title and subtitle. I show you my method of using keywords and structuring a title correctly to take advantage of the Amazon search algorithm and give your book a better chance of ranking.

    Hi Paul. Perhaps it would be suitable to create a new video about this topic, including all the latest information.

The same question for words like 'ideal' and 'perfect'.

    Hi Paul, thank you for all of your great content! It has sincerely helped me a lot. You are also very easy to listen to. I have a question regarding the title. Shouldn't we put the keywords in the title/subtitle we found when searching for a less competitive, but profitable niche? So instead of writing Cornell Notebook, a very competitive niche, we write Cornell Notebook for College Note Taking in the title, since it's less competitive and we have more chances to get on the first page. This is how I understood the point of niche research or am I wrong? Thank you for your help

    Hello 👋 I have problem I got this message from Amazon can you make a video to solve this ???
    " Resize the background or image on your cover so that it extends 0.125” (3.2 mm) beyond the trim line. All covers must be sized for bleed, which means you need to add an extra 0.125" (3.2 mm) along the top, bottom, and sides of your cover file. Once you have increased the size of your cover, extend any images or backgrounds that you want to reach all the way to the edge of the page 0.125” (3.2 mm) beyond the trim line. This prevents manufacturing issues when the cover is trimmed to size "

    Hello Mr Paul I want to thank you so much for showing me way to make money for myself and making your video so easy to understand.
    My question sir, I started publishing notebook, journals since 5th of August this year after I followed your instructions.i have published 56 notebook, journals and have not sold anyone,does this mean 6×9" with 120 pages is not right for notebooks, journals? Please sir check out my work by searching for (Asu Press notebook or journals)so I can earn your view sir,thank you so much for you are my mentor

      That is the correct size for journals.

    spell check and auto-correct make a lot of mistakes and it overrides your work.

    everyone has this idea of finding keywords, not a single one giving the right one.
    all I think of is just make your own way strategy, too many videos from people will just get you confused.
