If the book is not KDP, would you minus the amazon printing cost when calculating the royalty? For example, the royalty is $2 after amazing fee of $4 and printing cost of $6 - but is the book was not printed via KDP, would you add print cost to royalty total? I hope that makes sense. Thank you

How about True Life Autobiography’s

[@camonly849]

I've been looking at coloring books etc for kdp and some of them are listed at 6.99 and are only net profiting about .50cents. I was wondering what this meant. I expected the net profit to be a little more given the price of their book is between the $2.99 and $9.99. So does amazon then take their fee's from the remaining 70%? Sorry, just confused on this.

[@junglescout]

Could you send some examples of the books whose profit is only 0.50 cents? Thanks!

Hi. Thank you for great video. I started to study this market. Added the first book. Analyzing listings. So far - in manual mode, I'm training. Can you please tell me if it is possible to get to the first page in the niches you are talking about without additional advertising? And how long can it take?

[@junglescout]

You would need to do some Keyword Research for this! And the time it will take will all depend on these Keywords and how easy they are to rank!

[@ImDed]

[@jennifer6753]

I was under the impression that books with different page designs, like the cut and paste alphabet book you mentioned, was NOT actually a low content book. Whereas something like a notebook or journal with repetitive pages is considered a low content book. Can you clarify what is considered a low content book and what is not considered a low content book for Amazon KDP? I'm a little confused about this, especially since low content books do not require an ISBN while other books can receive an ISBN.

[@junglescout]

Hi Jennifer, a low-content book has minimal or no content on the interior pages. These pages are generally repetitive and designed to be filled in by the user. Examples are notebooks, planners, journals, and other similar works. Here's a KDP article for more info: kdp.amazon.com/en_US/help/topic/GGE5T76TWKA85DJM#:~:text=A%20low%2Dcontent%20book%20has,journals%2C%20and%20other%20similar%20works.

Just wondering how you found the sub niches in this video. I know you can type into amazon search and various sub niches will pop up and you can keep niching down etc but is there another way? I'm asking because it seems not all the sub niches possible are popping up in the search drop down.

[@junglescout]

Based on the video the sub niches were found using Google search,

[@markus5118]

I research niches for around one hour now, and I don't find more than one book in a nice that makes any sales in a month. Then I research the book you've shown at 2:15 and on my Amazon page there is no BSR shown. Did something change there in the last months? Also, a book need a max. 100000 BSR to have one sale a day. Very few books have such an BSR. Do you know what to do?
