The vein of Gold

Verified steps to successful publishing on Amazon 



Prepare Your Manuscript: Ensure your manuscript is properly formatted and edited. Amazon provides guidelines for formatting eBooks and print books.
  1. Create an Amazon KDP Account: Sign up for a Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) account on Amazon’s website. This is the platform where you’ll manage and publish your books.
  2. Enter Book Details: Fill in essential details such as title, author name, book description, and keywords. This information helps readers find your book.
  3. Upload Your Manuscript: Upload your formatted manuscript file. Amazon accepts various formats, including .doc, .docx, .epub, and more.
  4. Design a Book Cover: Design an eye-catching book cover. Amazon has guidelines for cover dimensions and quality.
  5. Set Pricing and Royalties: Decide on the pricing for your book and choose the royalty option. You can opt for 35% or 70% royalties, depending on factors like pricing and distribution.
  6. Choose Book Distribution: Decide if you want to make your book exclusive to Kindle or distribute it across multiple platforms using KDP Select.
  7. Enroll in KDP Select (Optional): If you choose, enroll your book in KDP Select for additional promotional opportunities, but this means exclusivity to Amazon for a specific period.
  8. Preview Your Book: Utilize Amazon’s preview tools to ensure your book appears as intended on different devices.
  9. Set Up Kindle eBook: For eBooks, configure additional settings like DRM (Digital Rights Management), which controls unauthorized copying and sharing.
  10. Approve Your Paperback: If you’re publishing a paperback, review and approve the online proof of your book. This ensures the print version looks as expected.
  11. Promote Your Book: Implement marketing strategies to promote your book. Amazon offers promotional tools, or you can use external methods.
  12. Monitor Sales and Reviews: Keep an eye on your sales dashboard and customer reviews. Engage with readers and consider adjustments based on feedback.
