How to Increase Your KDP Book Sales INSTANTLY with This NEW Tool

About this video

Sean demonstrates BookBeam’s new Listing Optimizer, a tool where you paste in an ASIN and it scores and diagnoses your Amazon listing. He says books often fail to sell because of the listing itself rather than ads or marketing. A poorly optimized stoicism example scores 2.6 out of 10, with a best sellers rank around 2 million and no reviews. The tool’s benchmarks he walks through include at least 20 reviews, an average rating above 4.0, ranking in multiple categories and within the top 100 of at least one or two categories, a description of at least 1,000 characters with good formatting, and A+ Content, which he says can increase conversion rate by up to 10 percent. A better-optimized example scores 7.7 and is missing mainly A+ Content. A near-fully optimized example scores 9.2, with 280 reviews and a best sellers rank of 40,000, and its remaining low-priority suggestions are to add deeper-level categories beyond its six categories and to increase A+ Content alt text to at least 60 characters for SEO. Sean describes BookBeam overall as combining features similar to other KDP tools and also mentions its niche finder for keyword ideas.

Key takeaways

• BookBeam’s Listing Optimizer scores a listing from an ASIN and gives prioritized low, medium, and high recommendations.
• Sean’s benchmarks from the tool: at least 20 reviews and an average star rating above 4.0.
• Listings should rank in multiple categories and reach the top 100 in at least one or two of them; overly competitive categories hurt the score.
• Descriptions should be at least 1,000 characters and formatted with headings and visual structure to be easier to read.
• Adding A+ Content can increase conversion by up to 10 percent according to Sean, and A+ alt text of at least 60 characters helps SEO.
