Amazon's KDP is one of the tools authors can use to publish their work online. Publishing through KDP makes an eBook available on Amazon to Kindle readers. KDP's Self-publishing interface is very straightforward and easy to use. Once you log into the KDP dashboard you're greeted with the prompt to Create a New Title.
Most Bestselling eBooks are FictionI took a quick look at the overall Amazon Kindle Best Seller list and it hit me: only six out of the top 100 eBooks on Amazon are non-fiction. The other 94 books are fiction titles. This compares with 36 non-fiction books out of 100 best sellers in print books.
While selling e-books has the potential to be profitable, it's not a business where you make hundreds of dollars per sale. To make money, you need to sustain high sales for months on end. Monitoring and processing these sales can be a time-consuming task unless you use tools to take care of some of the heavy lifting.
However, if you have some spare time and believe that being able to point to the fact that you're a published author on Amazon will help boost your credentials or career, then it's worth it. Self publishing on Amazon is also worth it if you can use the clicks and views that your eBook receives to boost another venture.
Making money from ebooks isn't automatic. You can't just put anything in it and hope to profit. It's not a difficult task, but you should follow some best practices to make sure your ebook draws attention from readers and generates sales. Just because you're writing a book doesn't mean you have to stress out.
Think about percentages. One of the biggest factors to consider in pricing your eBook is the percentage of sales you'll receive from the retailers. Amazon pays out a royalty of 70% on all Kindle titles priced between $2.99 to $9.99. For eBooks priced below $2.99 and above $9.99, Amazon pays out only 35%.
