3 HOT KDP keywords to Go Into Right Now! (Kindle Keyword Research)

About this video

Sean shares three KDP keywords he recommends investigating. First, a low-content keyword: ‘monster truck coloring books for kids ages 4-8,’ with about 3,000 search results. He argues low-content books are cheap and easy to make, so even middling Best Sellers Rank can be worthwhile; he points to truck coloring books with strong ranks, and suggests broadening to ’truck coloring book.’ Second, a high-content keyword: ‘how to solve a Rubik’s cube,’ with only 154 search results. He says page-one books show strong paperback ranks, the leading organic book has 125 reviews but only a 4.1 average, and there is also Kindle and audiobook potential, so a new quality book could rank on page one with little marketing and could be outsourced to a ghostwriter. Third, ‘doomsday prepping,’ which he frames as a wider survival niche rather than a single keyword, citing Google search volume for the term and strong ranks for prepping, pantry stocking, bushcraft and wilderness survival books, including one author’s long series. He suggests building a whole survival brand and series under one pen name so readers buy multiple books, and again notes audiobook versions usually repay their cost in his experience.

Key takeaways

• Low-content pick: ‘monster truck coloring books for kids ages 4-8’ — about 3,000 results; cheap production lowers the sales bar.
• Judge profitability by whether books already in the results are selling, using Best Sellers Rank, not search volume alone.
• High-content pick: ‘how to solve a Rubik’s cube’ — only 154 results, strong page-one ranks, and a beatable 4.1-star leader.
• Third pick, ‘doomsday prepping,’ is a niche play: build a survival brand and series across prepping, bushcraft and wilderness survival.
• Favour keywords selling in paperback, Kindle and audiobook — Sean says audiobook investment has consistently paid back for him.
