Top 5 Kdp Niche Research 2022 #3

About this video

In this KDP niche research video, Martinez — who says he just passed $30,000 all-time in royalties on his KDP account — shares book niches for Kindle Direct Publishing, stressing that keyword research drives organic traffic on Amazon. He says he researches mainly with Amazon itself and Book Bolt, and promotes Pixel Pod Studio, linked below, as offering over 250 interiors with the research done. The niches covered are: Safari, spanning baby shower guest books, coloring books, travel journals, composition notebooks and faith journals, noting you can repurpose existing Merch/Etsy design assets (lions, monkeys, elephants) into books; Yoga, spanning notebooks, planners, coloring books, meditation and how-to books, including ‘cute animals doing yoga’ coloring books and a yoga lesson plan book repeating the same interior with different quotes, which he holds up as a consistent seller since 2020; Science experiment / science fair notebooks, a more work-intensive STEM niche where he notes BSRs near 1–2 million mean only occasional sales and Q4 trending; Teacher attendance books, which he says he found mid-video, sell year-round especially around back-to-school, with one example carrying 71 ratings; and Teacher lesson planners, an annually renewing niche (2022, 2023, 2024 editions), where one example had 219 ratings and he speculates a top book is probably making over $100 a day after its price rose from $5.95 to $7.97. Throughout he advises reading reviews and ‘frequently bought together’ sections, using Helium 10’s Cerebro tool for organic keyword rankings, putting interior previews on the back cover, and creating the book type a niche is missing.

Key takeaways

  • Repurpose existing design assets across formats: safari animal designs used on Merch or Etsy can become KDP coloring books, journals and guest books
  • Keyword research is presented as the key to organic KDP sales — he cites Helium 10’s Cerebro tool to see how a book ranks and what search terms drive it
  • Simple repeated interiors can be consistent sellers, as in the yoga lesson plan book repeating the same interior with different quotes on each page
  • Teacher attendance books and lesson planners are recurring-demand niches tied to back-to-school and each new academic year, with dated yearly editions
  • Mine reviews and ‘frequently bought together’ for gaps: if buyers complain the inside doesn’t match expectations, create the better version that niche is missing
