Kindle publishing is hot, and simple, you just need to get started
These tips will help you make more sales…
KINDLE PUBLISHING TIP 1:
The simplest way to create an Ebook for the Kindle store is by writing it yourself.
But what if you don’t have time for it? Well, then there’s an excellent alternative. You can use Private Label Content. This is content that you can re-write, edit, and use as you wrote it all by yourself.
Here’s a web site that gives away fresh PLR content every month -and it’s free to join:

Every month you’ll get:
- 20 Fresh Private Label Articles
- 2 Fresh PSD Private Label Header Graphics
Not a bad deal, right?
If you are using PLR articles to create Kindle books, then you should first run your PLR content through a spell and grammar check in Word.
If you can’t afford Microsoft Word, here is a free online spelling and grammar checker: http://www.spellchecker.net/spellcheck
Neither the above site or Word is perfect, but they will weed out the most horrible errors. Remember, it’s always best to read the article yourself first. Then, if you’re not sure of something, run it through a spelling and grammar check.
People who buy Kindle books from Amazon have 7 days to return them.
If your Ebooks are not formatted correctly, if they do not look pleasing to the reader and are hard to read, you will lose the buyer before you knew it. It�s as simple as that. You will end up loaning your book to readers rather than selling them. That’s why you need to format your Kindle Ebook properly.
The font I recommend you to use is Times New Roman, the size is 12-14. Insert page breaks after every chapter, and insert a table of contents to make it easy for readers to navigate your book.
This will give you a good start.

KINDLE PUBLISHING TIP 2:
To find out if people are searching for a book, you should try typing your keywords into Amazon’s search box. If searches pop up automatically, then you know that people are searching for it, and you can list your own Ebook using the same keywords.
Titles CANNOT be copyrighted, which means that you can use any part of someone else’s title in your own title, and your book will come up when people are searching for that book.
Believe me; sales will come
It’s a good idea to publish several Ebooks in the same niche. When you publish your first book, most of the people who like (hit the like button), review, or buy that book will receive an email every time you publish a new book.
So, just pick a niche that’s large enough to publish several books on, and then publish them one by one.
Pretty simple
KINDLE PUBLISHING TIP 3:
One of the toughest things for an author to accomplish is to get published… and then get their works SOLD. Don’t you dream of one day writing a book and becoming a published author that gets respect and notoriety? How many times have you written something wonderful, only to have it collect virtual dust on your hard drive? I’m going to show you a system for publishing your book so fast that you won�t believe it until you actually see it. And before you go jumping to conclusions, it’s not one of those “Publish On Demand” services.
It’s something much more powerful than that. I found an amazing guide called “The Kindle Cash Machine”, by Bryan D. Toder:

Bryan wrote this uide for those of us who want (and NEED) to get published… and even (the shock!) make money with our works!
Bookstores are great, but if you can’t get your book in those mega-stores, then what do you do?
Sure, you can get it published yourself, but you risk having a garage full of 1,000 books that you can’t sell.
Now, however, you can publish your book electronically and have it sold on Amazon.com for their Kindle device! Go here now:

You’ll find out all you need to create the ebook in the format Amazon needs and you’ll learn exactly how and what to do.
KINDLE PUBLISHING TIP 4:
Before submitting your Ebook to the Kindle Publishing Platform, you should always check how your book will look on a Kindle reader device. You can do this easily with the MobiPocket Creator program.
=> You can download my free tutorial on how to do it:
http://instantinfoprofit.com/kindle-report/kindletutorial.htm
The program converts DOC, PDF, and TXT files to the Kindle MOBI and PRC format, and you can see how your document will look in the Kindle device. (If your original document does not include a table of contents, you can use the Wizard to automatically create one for you.)
- You can get the free “Kindle for your PC” from Amazon. Go to Amazon.com and click on the Kindle link > Ereaders > Kindle for PC (or Mac).
Now you will be able test your work without actually owning a physical Kindle.
Once you have published your book on the Kindle store, it’s time to create an Author Profile.
You can do this here:
https://authorcentral.amazon.com/gp
On this author page you can add a list of your books and tell readers more about yourself. Your Author Page also contains a blog. You can connect with customers, talk about your website and put a live link to it. Use it to send customers to your email capture site.
KINDLE PUBLISHING TIP 5:
As you may know, Kindle book authors can publish under different names for a variety of reasons. Sometimes they write in multiple genres and don’t want to confuse their audiences. And other times they just want to protect their privacy.
Lucky for us, Amazon recognizes the need to allow the use of pen names, so you don’t have to worry that you’ll be “outed” just because you publish your content on Amazon.
The only thing you have to do is put your pen name in the spot on Amazon’s form where it asks for the Author Name. That’s it. You’re done! Even though you publish under a pen name, you still get paid in your own name.
The great thing about having a Kindle book for sale is that you get paid over and over without doing any work. Amazon does all the hard work for its authors.
All you need to do is add a book now and then, and that’s all… piece of cake as they say.
But why not let others do the work for you, instead of sitting in fornt of your PC, coming up with new niche book ideas?
You can hire someone for a small fee (for example $10), and have them find an Ebook, rewrite it, and upload it to Kindle. You get the commissions for as long as the book is on sale. And you don’t even need to explain how it all works to your assistant…
If you have a series of articles sitting on your PC, why not turn them into a Kindle Ebook, and sell it online?
Think about it. You can re-use all the articles in a printed book, getting the most out of your time and work. Just come up with a new title, add all your articles one by one, create a table of contents, write a short introduction, and voila, there’s your new Kindle book. How simple is that?
Remember that your Kindle book should look professional.
The secret to Kind Ebook publishing success is to only publish exactly what people are buying every day in the Kindle store. In other words, you have to approach Kindle publishing like a niche marketer.
Research book topics in a particular way, and find killer keywords. See which titles are the most popular, and use these keywords in your book title to get a higher listing when people are browsing the Amazon store . Add a small adjustment to a popular title, and you’ll notice that more and more people will see your book appear in the Kindle store.
More eyeballs means: more sales…
You can leverage your time by having other people look up bestselling titles and create content for you. In fact, scoring a bestselling Kindle Ebook is quite simple, and you can crank out these automatic money machines over and over again.

As a Kindle author, you can benefit from social media, like Twitter and Facebook. Social media sites allows you to get in touch with your readers or customers on a regular basis. You can for example tell them that you are working on a new book, or ask readers for feedback, or find out which book they would like to buy -and then create it for them
Twitter and Facebook are huge, and you should use these social sites to communicate with your fans. Even if you spend just 15 minutes per day on them, it can have a huge impact.
The report I’m about to share with you is packed with tutorials to help you succeed on Twitter as an author. It’s outlined for you step-by-step instructions with screenshots to help you out. Check it out here:
