6 Proven Strategies For Creating A Top Bestselling Book On Amazon KDP

About this video

The creator explains how to create a low-content book that stands out on Amazon KDP. A low-content book — log books, lined journals, coloring books — needs little writing, can be put together in a few hours, and KDP has no minimum word count. Benefits he lists: saving time versus writing a novel, and getting more from your content by reposting it in different formats to reach more customers — while never copying someone else’s content, since his own top sellers are original ideas. The core strategy is niche research in two flavors: trending niches (when NFTs became popular there were initially no books on Amazon, and early movers had a high chance of a bestseller) and low-competition niches found through keyword research into what Amazon customers actually search for. Then design: keywords, cover, and interior work as a triad — good keywords with a bad cover and interior yield only a few sales, while all three done well produce a bestseller. You can design it yourself or outsource it; for pre-made interiors he recommends Pixel Pod Studio, which he says offers over 250 researched interiors with keywords and clip art, editable in common design/layout programs and PDF. He closes by reminding viewers that copying content violates the terms of service and to double-check trademarks.

Key takeaways

  • Low-content books (log books, lined journals, coloring books) require little writing, can be assembled in a few hours, and KDP imposes no minimum word count.
  • Repurpose your own content into different formats to reach more customers, but never copy others — his personal top-selling books are original ideas.
  • Chase trending niches early: when NFTs first became popular there were no books on Amazon yet, and being first in a new niche greatly raises bestseller chances.
  • Low-competition niche research — finding what Amazon customers search for that stores like Target or Walmart don’t stock — is the work most sellers skip, and rinsing and repeating it drives sales.
  • Keywords, cover, and interior are a package: good keywords with a poor cover/interior make only a few sales; all three strong makes a bestseller. Pixel Pod Studio is his recommended source for 250+ pre-made researched interiors.
