I know this video was made some time ago (hope you see this), but I just want to express my gratitude for you, your channel, and your teaching style. By far you are the most on-point and comprehensible KDP teacher on KZread. I've been wanting to do this for a while and now feel confident enough (mostly due to your succinct explanations) to begin. Thank you Paul...you truly are a natural teacher.

Hello Paul, My name is Simone, and I am writing to you from Germany; I have been following you for a long time, I have watched almost all of your videos, and I am learning a lot from them. I need some information about the parameters to be taken into account for the profitability of keywords 1) how many self-publishers must have published on the same keyword? 2) how many publishers maximum must have published on the same keyword? 3) how many gurus maximum must be present? 4) and of how many reviews is a guru? 5) how many publications in the last 30 days must be present?

The information that is really on relevant is in this video. All you need to be mainly concerned with is the number of search results to give you an idea of competitors and, if you use a keyword tool, the number of searches for a particular keyword. I don;t have the ansers to your questions because that's not data I use.

Thanks for all of your videos, I’m a regular viewer and find your videos the easiest to follow. I did have one clarifying question in regards to Keywords, so theoretically do you need to use short/long tail phrases when filling in your keywords? For example, do you need to keep putting “gifts for mom, gifts for co workers, gifts for….” Or does having “gifts for…” once and including the “fors” either in a list or in other places suffice? Etc. Thank you!

Question for my son: if his fiction is based on a character that already exists - like a story of him meeting and having an adventure with Mickey Mouse --- is the considered a copyright infringement or is that allowed? He said it's called fan fiction but I wouldn't really know.

You would need to contact a legal professional for that advice. I wouldn't know for certain. It's a very grey area and personally I would avoid anything to do with Disney characters as they are known to pursue copyright and trademark infringements.

I’ve tried giving free books away in a drawing to hopefully get reviews and raise our ranking. I’ve had trouble getting people to actually follow through despite my efforts and own expense of printing and shipping. Does Amazon filter out reviews? Some have said they’ve submitted one but my number of reviews aren’t changing.

One more question: So now I've changed all my keyword phrases based on your algorithm. It seems like the next step should be to wait a few weeks then see if my books show up when keywords searched with my selected phrases, and if so, what page it's on. Do you have any recommendations for the best way to go about that, and what an inadequate response looks like that would make me want to rethink a specific keyword phrase? It seems like just picking the perfect keyword phrases does not guarantee they'll show up on the first page.

@paulmarles

3 жыл бұрын

Nothing guarantees that but you can only put your books in the best position to work with the search algorithm. Are you wanting suggestions for a ranking tool? I currently use the rank tracking Helium 10 module. There are others if you do a Google search.

I get the logic of not including keywords that are in titles or subtitles. Can I ask for one clarification? If text is included as part of any image file that is uploaded for a cover, then that text would not be readable by the KDP checking process, so I assume this means the titles/subtitles you type into the 'form' as part of the upload process are the ones you do not need to re-enter as keywords.
