2. An Opportunity to Reach Millions
Did you know that in March
2011, Amazon announced
that it was selling more
digital books than print
books?
Kindle provides an amazing
opportunity to reach
millions of consumers, just
waiting to read your
content.

3. Tip #1: Do Your Research
One of the biggest
keys to success on
Kindle is to sell
content that is in
demand.
Always research topics
and find the right
category to sell your
ebooks.

4. Tip#2: Follow Formatting Guidelines
Kindle has specific
formatting guidelines, so
make sure to follow them
to get more assured
acceptance of your work.

5. Tip #3: Grab Their Attention Right Away
Kindle takes the first 10% of
your content and offers it
as a free sample. Make sure
the first few pages of your
ebook grab your audience’s
attention and makes them
want to read more.

6. Tip #4: Professionally-Designed Cover
According to Kindle, your
cover should be at least
500 x 800 pixels with an
ideal height/weight ratio of
1.6. It should also be saved
at 72 dpi for optimal
viewing.
Don’t know what that
means? Get a designer’s
professional help.

7. Tip #5: Titles Descriptions Matter
Titles and descriptions are
the first things people will
see when searching the
Kindle store.
Take the time to do
research and brainstorm
ideas before you publish.

8. Tip #6: Test Different Pricing
It might be easier to sell
more copies at a lower
price or you may find that
you earn more by selling to
fewer people at a higher
price.
The key is to test different
price points to find out.

9. Tip #7: Try Public Domain
The public domain is filled
with great content. You
can sell public domain
content on Kindle
