(Those things that cost a lot of money and do nothing). It is not a BSO. This works. Wrote a short ebook on raised bed intensive gardening and it was on the first page of Amazon the first day. It comes up on 4 first pages for different key words. In the first week it shows 258 sales. Thanks for a great product, one that works.

If so, is there a way around this (other than re-writing what we originally wrote)? Thanks, Anne Hi, James,

I have another question. You mention that you have changed the book titles sometimes to maximize relevancy. When you make the title change, do you send an email to KDP to let them know you are making the title change and that this is not a duplicate-content book? As I understand it, you do not unpublish the book. You leave it published and make the title change. Thanks for the clarification. Anne Hi, James,

I wondered about the feasibility of this transferring to the Kindle because it seemed like 2 different animals. Now I see you saying that action is wrong. I have just put up 4 books on Kindle within the past month and a half and working on some reports now but have to readjust after reading what you are saying. I wish I had saw your report before the price went up but I'm bookmarking this site to keep up with whatever tidbits you send along. Kindle just seems like something you have to jump into right now so keep the tips coming. :-) I just finished reading a report on Kindle marketing this weekend about using the Google search engine to find out what is being searched for.
