you are gem bro thumbs up for you

[@arturomadrid4513]

It is simply the most intelligent, realistic and practical keyword analysis that I have seen from all the self-publishers I follow. Congratulations and thank you very much for your advice, you are already in my favorites...

[@KenSelfPublishing]

Wow thank you! I really appreciate that support. We’re just getting started! Lots to come :)

[@kevchilton908]

Factual and straight to the point. A lot of get-rich-quick chancers won't want to hear this, and a lot will go on to lose money publishing a book.Excellent advice for those wanting to publish a successful book. Thank you Ken👌🏻

[@KenSelfPublishing]

Really appreciate this! Exactly what I want my channel to be

[@normib6]

I finally found someone who explained in such a concise and precise way something that I have been trying to understand for years. Thank you so much!

[@KenSelfPublishing]

Really glad you enjoyed it! :)

This is a course on it own. Value pack. Thank you for sharing 🙏

Really appreciate this! :)

[@kalebarancelovic]

Thanks for doing this video. Really opened my eyes to what is needed to get sales on KDP. Can't just press "publish" and hope for the best.

[@KenSelfPublishing]

Glad you enjoyed it! Make sure to watch my recent book launch video. Sheds more on what needs to be done to boost your book to good ranking :)

What criteria to check for copyright

[@matt_v2305]

Hi Ken. Did you say you were going to leave a link about how to bring up the best sellers list?

[@KenSelfPublishing]

I’ve added it now!

[@MamagaHDII]

Thank you Ken

[@ajaniidowujamiu]

Value packed! For a beginner like me, this is an eye-opening course (yeah, COURSE!) Keep doing what you are doing. You are changing lifes! Thanks for the video, brr. Actually, I have a question, if I have access to bookbeam already, can I focus on it "Niche finder" section to find keywords or Should I still go on Amazon to find the keywords of topics to write on? Which one is the best to list bunch of topics (up to 200 as you recommended).?

[@carmen333ification]

Thank you for your very good presentation, Ken! The metrics you use for the All and Books filters are different. Which ones do you consider when deciding on a keyword?

[@KenSelfPublishing]

I always Just search under books with the metrics in the spreadsheet. If it said all it was because I forgot to change it!

[@carmen333ification]

@@KenSelfPublishing Thanks

[@Karfferro]

Love this video. Thanks. What if I found some keywords for a niche but they have 500SV each? Adding up these keywords will come out to a total of 6000SV. I think such a niche will be ok too, and I can put the keywords in the subtitle and boxes. I wanna video about creating titles please.

[@KenSelfPublishing]

I have one on my channel!

[@Prattle123]

Great video. Thanks

[@my_space_Ise]

Hello Ken, I just Downloaded the spreadsheet and the 51 keywords promised are not inserted is this a mistake?

[@rickytrueichimoku6339]

Everything is very clear but I have a question.. The first data is the search volume (506) you take from the BookBeam results.. Who doesn't have this software where do they get it? Thank you

[@johnalba4920]

Hello Ken, I really appreciate your efforts. I have a question I hope you could answer. I entered a specific kw. I got its BSR number but get a variety of numbers but am not sure which one to use. Should I only look at the overall BSR in books or should I use the number specific to the niche of the kw I entered (i.e. homeschooling)? Please advise.

[@xassy]

Thanks for a great video. I am concerned that I don't have a social media following or any way to do a book launch. Is there any way to overcome this?

[@KenSelfPublishing]

You don’t actually need any form of audience to launch a book. Launching a book starts with the keyword. When you find a good keyword, like we just proved, there should be lots of traffic. So you’re using the traffic that is already there to launch your book. You post it, get some reviews, if you have a good title and cover, and use my Amazon ad strategy, you should absolutely get sales. From there, you will slowly rank closer to page one. If it goes well you should get on page one and make a ton of organic sales. The only reason you can’t launch a book is if you made a bad book, didn’t run ads, or your keyword has no demand!

[@vincentmayer7517]

I ask for this video to be taken down because the content it gives for FREE is OUTRAGEOUS!!! Excelent video Ken! (But seriously take it down!!)

[@KenSelfPublishing]

Haha thanks Vincent! Don’t worry, there is an abundant amount of wealth for everyone. No one has to be left out!

[@DonnaP-el6nd]

Thank you for your help - 1 question. When validating results you have Amazon metrics across the top of the screen which told you how many books there were for Pickleball for beginners - how did you get those?

[@KenSelfPublishing]

Those are the book beam tool! However, it’s not necessary but you can check it out in the description!

[@debburns9187]

Why do you carry through to checking competition if you have red in the volume and demand columns?

[@KenSelfPublishing]

To explain the entire process and metrics to the people watching

[@mhamdimabrouk6187]

Thanks Ken, great video 👍 I just want to know if all the matrices are good, but the number of books of pages is more than 20. should I ignore the keyword and go for another one?

[@KenSelfPublishing]

It depends. If you think you can rank on page one, then go for it. If it’s low content, it might be fine a you make books faster so it’s not as much of a commitment. Realistically that seems very saturated, but if you’re confident then do it. Me personally, if there is a lot of demand, and the competition doesn’t have super high reviews, even with 20 pages I can get to page 1 no problem.

[@mhamdimabrouk6187]

@@KenSelfPublishing Thanks 🙂

[@mhamdimabrouk6187]

@@KenSelfPublishing Sorry, Ken, I have another question. When we search for dead books and Authority Figures, how many pages should we set as our search limit?

[@KenSelfPublishing]

Just until page 2!

[@ajahenoch8705]

Thank you But want to know about books on Roman history ancient civilization. Are books published on this niche not public Domain books because it is usually difficult to find self independent books published on this niche especially the history niche What can you say about it

[@KenSelfPublishing]

The topic itself is fine but if you are looking to copy other books, then they would have to be out of copyright! Not super familiar with this.

[@candie5150]

Knowing where the cut-off from good books to dead books is difficult to decipher. It's more like a gradual thing. What if there are 10 pages of results and dead books are mixed in with good books on every page from 1-10? Does that mean that if I create a good book, I'll start off on page 10?

[@KenSelfPublishing]

Just kind of trust your gut. If there is an equal amount of dead books + unrelated books it’s safe to say it’s probably the end

[@candie5150]

@@KenSelfPublishing and when counting good books vs dead books are we counting everything? Including sponsored, audible, paperbacks and kindle, etc?

Great video. I’ve signed up to your email list but it doesn’t send through the free research tracker. Not in junk mail either. Thanks

[@KenSelfPublishing]

I just tested it myself and it seemed to be working fine! Please wait a little longer and if it still doesn’t come through in spam (or promotions) let me know. You can always try another email as well!

[@MrDentistspb]

What plan of Bookbeam would you recommend if I just start? There is no "keyword research tool in starter". PS Thanks for a video amd your file

[@KenSelfPublishing]

I Think the basic plan is perfectly fine for everything you’ll need! The extra features aren’t necessary. You can always upgrade if you need more. Glad you are enjoying the content!
