HOW TO PUBLISH AN EBOOK ON AMAZON

Amazon is the biggest retailer online and with the world of book-buying migrating and settling on the internet, Amazon is the place to publish.

Here’s how you can publish an ebook on Amazon with Kindle Direct Publishing.

#1 – Write a book worth buying
There’s no point in publishing a book that’s not your best work. But if you’re not much of a writer or have no idea how to write a book in the first place, that can make this entire process much more daunting. In order to write a great ebook to sell on Amazon or even on your own website, you first have to pick a book idea that you’re passionate about. Remember, you’ll be writing up to and even more than 25,000 words so you want to make sure you have a topic you know a lot about and love.

Here are the overall steps for writing a book and getting it ready for publication:
1. Choose an idea
2. Come up with a good book title and subtitle
3. Create your mind map
4. Write a thorough outline from your mind map
5. Schedule your writing time and get your book done!
6. Thoroughly self-edit
7. Hire an editor to ensure perfection
8. Hire a book cover design artist to bring your book to life

#2 – Create your Amazon KDP account
Learning how to publish an ebook means navigating the online space in a way you may not be familiar with, like using Amazon’s Kindle Direct Publishing to get your ebook out into the world.

Setting up your KDP account is actually really easy.

Here’s all you have to do:
1. Visit https://kdp.amazon.com and create an account. You can either use your existing Amazon account or a different email address.
2. Set up all your tax information. You can’t submit your published ebook unless you have all of these steps completed.
3. Once your tax information is all filled in, hit “Finished” and you’re all done.

#3 – Format the ebook properly
Book formatting is really, really important. If you just upload your manuscript as is, you’ll run into a number of different problems. And this is awful because with the “Look Inside” feature Amazon offers, anyone can see the formatting of your book right away. If it’s bad and difficult to read, they’ll avoid buying your ebook and your sales will tank.

#4 – Upload your ebook to KDP
This is a very simple step for publishing an ebook. All you really have to do is “plug and chug,” as they say. You have all of the information you need and now it’s just about uploading your formatted manuscript to your KDP account and filling in the information you need to. That means you’ll need to fill out the title, subtitle, and the description. Now, you really don’t want to write a boring “filler” description. After the cover, this is the single most important part of publishing an ebook. If people aren’t sucked in by your description, they won’t buy your book.

#5 – Choose a launch date
Believe it or not, there are actually good and bad days to launch your book. Typically speaking, the winter holiday season is the worst time to publish a book simply because the advertising market will be super saturated. Everyone is putting their best ads forward so they can reap the rewards of those holiday spending dollars. And although this might seem like the perfect time to launch, it’s actually one of the worst. Your book can easily become lost in the hype of literally every other book and product marketed during that time.

#6 – Put together your launch team
This is such an important step when it comes to self-publishing an ebook. What you really need is a great group of people who can help launch your book to heights you wouldn’t reach otherwise. Your launch team should be composed of people who:

Love your book
Want to help you
Are very enthusiastic about your book
Have some sort of following or online presence
Are fans of you and your work

Since you’re trusting these people to help get the word out, make sure they’re all committed. A great way to do that is to have an online application form that each person has to fill out. This will help narrow down those who are serious about helping you and will put in the time and effort to do so.

#7 – Build hype for your ebook on your website or blog
Many who publish ebooks usually have a website or blog they can use to drive traffic to it. Not only that, but some actually use the ebook as a lead magnet and even the main source of income on their site. And publishing a book – even just an ebook – can do wonders for growing your online business as well. What you have to do before your launch is to build interest about the ebook.

Here’s how you can build hype for publishing your ebook:
1. Link to your book within blog posts
2. Create blog posts related to the topic of your book
3. Create graphics for your book and place in your sidebar and within blog posts
4. Create a graphic to use on the front page of your website
5. Create an email sequence to sell your book (this is for those more advanced with a larger email list)
6.Continuously look for ways to integrate your book into blog post ideas and on social media

The idea with optimizing your website with your book is to convert your blog followers into customers and to give those coming to your website from your book the content they’re actually looking for. All of this builds fans and most importantly, a loyal and engaged following!

#8 – Publish your ebook!
It’s time to kick off your ebook and launch! If you’ve followed the steps above, then you’re ready to get your book published and start reaping the rewards. The best part about publishing an ebook is that you don’t have to worry about ordering prints and going through the proofs and the entire process of adjusting how they look. Once the ebook format is complete, that’s all you need to concern yourself with in terms of delivery! Your launch day is very important and exciting. Make sure your launch team is ready for a day of sharing and even some activities.

#9 – Create emphasis of your book on your webiste, social, or email list

Now is the time to leverage that book!

Writing the ebook itself isn’t the hardest part of this process; making continuous sales is. And the best way to ensure you keep pushing buyers to your book is to make it the focus of your blog and website. Plus, if you have those great reviews from your launch team, you can actually leverage those to make more sales. Place reviews on your website on the same page your book is linked to. They’re kind of like testimonials for a service. Except, in this case, your service is a book.

You can feature them on your website wherever you want.

Obviously, if you’re someone who only wants to sell your ebook, a blog or website might not even be something on your ebook publishing to-do list.

You should, however, think about creating a website to at least host your book and information on in case others want to find you and even connect with you about speaking engagements and other amazing opportunities a book can grant you.

How To Publish A Book: A Step-by-Step Guide

Historically, if you wanted to know how to publish a book, you needed an agent to get a traditional publisher to look at your manuscript.

In fact, many publishing companies won’t even open a manuscript if it doesn’t come through an agent…

Which makes learning how to publish a book way more difficult.

Not to mention the fact that going through all that work to just land an agent isn’t necessary if you want to publish a book.

What’s worse is even if they do open it, it’s still unlikely that your book will be published and sold in bookstores!

So is there a better method? Yes! It’s called self-publishing.

What is Self-Publishing?
Self-publishing is the act of independently publishing your book on a platform like Amazon without the need of a traditional publishing house.

Self-publishing a book is done with these steps:

Write a book you’re proud of
Decide which self-publishing platform to use
Get your book edited, a cover designed, and it formatted
Upload your manuscript and accompanying assets
Hit “Publish” when you’re ready
Your book is self-published!

What’s the Difference Between Self-Publishing and Traditional Publishing?
It’s easy to look at these two publishing routes and get confused. Why would someone self-publish a book when there are companies dedicated to doing it for you? There are actually many reasons.

What is the difference between self-publishing vs traditional publishing?

Self-publishing is a completely independent route with no barriers to entry whereas traditional publishing involves the acts of querying, landing an agent, and getting approved by a publishing house.
