If you’ve got a lot to learn, here’s a site that has a lot to teach.
I’m a big fan of Dave Chessan's Kindlepreneur.com. I use Publisher Rocket to find the best keywords and categories for my and our clients’ books.
Publisher Rocket is a great product—it’s worth every penny it costs and more. If you’re interested in it, click here to purchase using my affiliate link.
But if you’re not ready for it, you can still learn a lot about publishing on Amazon just browsing around Kindlepreneur.com. Here’s a sample of some great articles for fledgling self-publishers:
Dave Chesson discusses book formatting file types and walks you through the steps of formatting your book.
Dave Chesson explains why your book’s title is important and how to craft a good one.
My usual answer to the “what’s the best software” question is: The one you know how to use—and I use Word (Sorry, Scrivener—I’ve tried and just can’t get comfortable with you). But Dave Chesson has put together an excellent analysis of the various book writing software options that’s worth reviewing.
You’ll find a lot more on Kindlepreneur.com and I think you’ll enjoy Dave Chesson’s style. When you’re ready to make an investment in his products, check out my blog about Publisher Rocket.
