Best KDP Niches to Publish in for May 2022

About this video

Sean presents three seasonal niches to publish in for May 2022, noting the video was filmed in March, about two months ahead of the holidays. He says he personally prefers evergreen topics that sell year-round, but argues publishers who chase seasonal keywords month after month can keep income steady as different books spike in different months. Niche one is Cinco de Mayo books for kids, for a holiday he says falls on May 5th; he says the keyword has only 3,000 results and suggests coloring books, journals, word searches, activity books, puzzles, and mazes, and points to a Cinco de Mayo bilingual book for kids in English and Spanish on page one. He says a children’s book on the topic was already at 153,000 in Books, showing demand before the holiday. Niche two is Mother’s Day word search: Sean says niching down to word searches leaves only 1,000 results, and he claims a leading book was making about 62 to 92 sales per day and around $191 in royalties per day, stressing the importance of getting reviews. Niche three is Memorial Day books for kids, for a holiday he puts on May 30th, with 5,000 results; he says illustrated children’s story books, rather than activity books, are the ones doing well there.
