Well, for sure not too long a good niche. Guys, you need to be aware of a rapid change in a niche when it is exposed on KZbin!

[@TiffanySoulbird]

I'm thinking it's best to do your own competition research to see for yourself. Do you have experience with niches changing after a KZbin video featured the niche?

[@Lisa-dt9tp]

😞

[@Lisa-dt9tp]

This niche’s rapid exposure? Possibly correct. Yet this videos details will not cause a flood of competition. That’s foo sho

[@Writer67]

Hi Paul, I just wanted to reach out and let you know how much I appreciate your amazing videos on KZbin. Your content has been incredibly helpful, and because of your guidance, I finally took the plunge and started publishing on KDP. I also wanted to thank you for generously sharing so much valuable information for free. It's not always clear why someone would do that, but it truly sets you apart and makes your channel even more exceptional. Thank you again for all you do, and keep up the great work! Best regards, Dietmar

[@paulmarles]

Hi Dietmar, thank you. That's very much appreciated. I'm glad you've found the videos useful. 🙂

[@janmarie6949]

I have been looking at hundreds of videos a day for the last 3 months as I am researching several make money on-line ideas and I have to say, without a doubt, that your videos are not only entertaining, but feel heart-felt.. Most videos, including affiliate marketing categories which start off as educational (title only; haha) BUT result in an unpleasant experience. Just wanted to send you this note to let you know I appreciate your work and wishing you lots of success.

[@paulmarles]

Thank you. That's very much appreciated. I'm glad you've found the videos helpful. 🙂

[@MeezerGurlMakes]

I like your steady, practical and generous content. I've published 6 journals this week and really find it fun! I have a f/t job so one a day is about all I can do at the moment but this clip art info - I'm doing this next. It looks like something I'll really enjoy doing. Thank you for all the informational videos you are put out - I find them the best to follow. Hope you get tons more subs as that would be well-deserved. Thank you!

Love your videos! I watched the Create Journal and did that recently, i am new to this. But now i'm trying to do the vision board for the first time and watched this video a few times but im confused on the deletion of elements/pages and how do you make more than one page and put it all together to put on KDP?

[@paulmarles]

You would build up the interior page by page. At the bottom of each page you click on the add page button to add the next page. And then add the images etc. to that page and so on.

[@melaniediasdc]

Hi Paul. Great video and so helpful. Can you post a link reference (or video) on how to use Bookow to create the manuscript for a certain type of low-content book? (and how to choose the size based on the amount of content per page). Thank you so much!

[@cindyonyoutube]

If you're using photos form Canva, does this comply with their licensing? You're not allowed to use their elements as "standalone". So if you use their elements, you have to alter & add to the original element to make a new design. It doesn't seem like this qualifies as a new design, since none of the photos are altered. I find Canva guidelines somewhat confusing, so I appreciate any input you have on this!

[@paulmarles]

Click on the information button on each photo. You'll find that most come from Pixabay and Pexels, so you comply with their license. Section 2 in the Camva licensing aggreement is pretty clear on the matter.
