When it comes to selling your book to the largest possible audience, Amazon is a fantastic choice for many aspiring authors. Amazon is a marketplace for consumers, and exposing your book to as many people as possible will give it the best chance of selling. 

You can start selling your book today simply by choosing the right keywords. This will, in turn, allow your titles to show up in shopping results. It’s a super simple process, and could even see you accumulate massive profits. 

To find out more about choosing keywords for your book on Amazon, simply keep reading, as we take a look below. 

How To Sell More Books On Amazon 

There are two primary ways that you can sell more books on Amazon. The first one is to choose the correct keywords that will ensure that your book is visible. Choosing your keywords poorly, or incorrectly, could make your book invisible to potential buyers. 

In order to choose the correct keywords, it is best to always opt for long string words. Many authors will choose a series of individual keywords for their books, but this isn’t actually as effective. 

Statistics have shown that choosing longer string words are more effective when it comes to visibility. Try to choose some string words that are closely related to what your book is about, and always consider this from the buyers perspective.

What might they be searching for in order to stumble across your work. Choose your string words accordingly. 

Another factor which plays into the success of your book on Amazon is the number of reviews that you get. This is why our first pointer is so important. You want to make sure that your book is as visible as possible so that people can read it and leave a review. 

Amazon ranks its books based on the number of reviews that it receives. The more reviews you get for your book, the more visible it will be to potential customers. It will determine how high you rank on their website, and of course, the higher the better. 

How To Create Keyword Strings 

So, now that you have a brief overview of how the Amazon ranking system works, we can move on to discuss how you can create keyword strings for your book. As we mentioned above, keyword strings are far more lucrative than individual words. 

These keyword strings can appear in a number of different places, one of the primary ones being your title, along with the subtitle. As well as this, your book description is also a great place for keyword strings, and so is your Amazon author central page. 

You want to be careful about the way that you structure your keyword strings however, as doing it incorrectly could see you removed from Amazon. Putting in too many keywords is known as ‘keyword stuffing’. 

This is prohibited by Amazon, as well as many other marketplaces, so you want to be strategic about the way you put your words in. 

This means that you need to place them in an organized and sensical manner that flows appropriately. 

How Do I Find The Correct Keywords? 

Some of you might be wondering how to find the correct keywords in the first place. Sometimes it can be tricky to figure out exactly what your audience is looking for, but there are a few ways to determine this. 

One of the first things you should do is visit the kindle store on Amazon, then enter a keyword string that’s closely related to your book. After you’ve done this, you’ll be able to see which books rank the highest in the store. 

Take a look at the most competitive keywords by reading the titles and descriptions of the book. This will then help you to create and choose your own keywords. 

How To Get More Sales Using Keywords

There are a few things that you can do in order to make sure that you get the maximum amount of sales from using keywords. The most important of all of these is testing out your keywords as we mentioned above. 

Remember however, that things change on Amazon constantly, so you’ll need to recheck these at intervals. We recommend doing this every three months. 

In addition, you should visit your author central page. There are lots of different places that you add keywords that can help your book become more visible for potential customers. 

The details that you present on the author central page will also appear when somebody clicks on your book, just below the book section. This is why it’s so important to choose your keywords carefully on this page. 

What Price Should My Amazon Book Be? 

If you’re thinking about price in terms of sales, the sweet spot for Amazon is somewhere between 3 and 6 dollars. Check what similar books are being priced as on Amazon, and choose your sum accordingly. 

If you’re selling more than one book, it’s always a good idea to make one of them free. This will help to accumulate a larger audience that can read your work. If they like what they see, they can go ahead and buy your other books. 

Final Thoughts 

To sum up, it is always better to string keywords rather than individual ones for book sales. Always make sure to do your research first, and see which related keywords are ranking the highest on Amazon. In addition, always make sure to include keywords in your author central page on Amazon.
