5. Use the right keywords
During the publication of your ebook on Amazon, you must ensure you use the right and relevant keywords and keyphrases. Amazon requires you input seven keywords or keyphrases during the publication of your ebook.
You should use a combination of keywords and keyphrases you discover during your researches using the Amazon search results and also the Google search results. I also advise you should use long keyphrases.
6. Put your ebooks in the right categories
Amazon recently did some major update with ebook categories on their platform. However, the same rule still stands that you must put your ebooks in relevant categories during publication to ensure they are shown in search results to the right audience.
You must also ensure you don’t put your ebooks in competitive categories on Amazon. This will limit your ebooks from coming up in the first few pages of search results.
7. Leverage the different Amazon marketing programs
Amazon has some exciting free marketing programs for published ebooks on their platform. A very popular one is the Kindle select program where you make your ebook exclusive to Amazon for a period of three months.
During this period, you can select free days for your ebook where Amazon paid membership subscribers can read your ebook free. Amazon will, in turn, pay you for the number of pages read by their paid subscribers.
This free promotion can help to publicize your ebook and you may even get some positive reviews for.your ebook which can go a long way to help its visibility in search results.
8. Get reviews
