(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.

It enabled me to find a niche and led me towards deciding on what to do my books on and in what format to write them. All meat, no fluff. I bought another program for close to $1,000 and watched 2 DVDs and got my money back. For $7, your stuff--amazing. Hi James,

As for questions: Do you know how often people search for "all departments" or "books", rather than "Kindle store"? How long does it take after uploading a book before it shows up in the Kindle Store? Is it possible to do a one day 99 cent promotion to push up sales? How do you set that up? Thanks. (I just bought the You Tube videos.) Hi James,

I loved your webinar. I think it is smart to do the research first and then get a writer to do the writing of the research. Are you asking the writer to write a set of articles or a report and what are your minimum and maximum that you would be comfortable to pay the writer? How long time do you give them and are you outsourcing the type of books that you reveal in the webinar as well or do you do these yourself? I am looking forward to get into coaching in March once I am settled in my new home because right now I am in the process of moving to the Carribean. Thanks again for the great webinar:) Hello James!
