Okay, when it comes to going on KDP, all you have to do is simply go to kdp.com. Or I'm sorry, KDP, Amazon dot, and whatever your specific top level domain is, if you're in Italy, it may be.it. If you're in china.cn, if you're in the UK, United Kingdom co.uk. For me, it's dot com, because I'm here in the US, sometimes they'll auto direct you, all you got to do is simply click in, say, hey, I want to sign up, don't have an account already. And all you're going to have to do is sign in. If you already have an amazon.com login, most people do if you don't, can just create one, that's all you got to do new to it, create your KDP account.
So your register name, email password, and just like that you're off and running to the races. I'm going to quickly sign in. Just do that. All right, and then you're gonna immediately be booted right? to this place right here. So what this is going to do and remember I was talking about, make sure that none of your content even if it's just a little has been used before on the internet, that's why you're gonna get books blocked.
So just want to show that to you as well. But um, and you don't want that to happen do not Or else, they basically ban all of your content, even though just a little portion of that content was found somewhere. All of its gone now can't use any of it. So copyscape. With that being said, we're going to end up doing is going into Kindle ebook, clicking on that to create a new title, title. And you're going to come through here filling all of the details.
I'm going to type in example book. We can basically skip everything else except for the author name here. Zach Miller is a book about email marketing and more stuff. You're going to say that you own the copyright, you're going to want to add in your keywords. This is where you might want to do some keyword research. The best way to do that is actually to go to amazon.com.
And inside of amazon.com they're going to give you auto suggestions when you start typing in these keywords here. And it's going to be things like email, type in M marketing for marketing, they're going to start sending you auto suggestions just like Google does. So there you go, email marketing rules, you know, marketing books, coffee mug for dummies by the numbers, rules. So you know marketing books, book, that different keyword all types of stuff. Now we're going to come in here we're going to set our categories This is the most important thing, so you want to make sure that you get this right. I'm going to come inside of here, to be honest I don't need to get it right.
So I'm just going to quickly pop off and get two different ones. All right, there's no age range. I'm ready to release my book. Now I'm going to save and continue. From there. It's going to save, register all that information.
And now I can come through. Do I want to enable DRM DRM? Yes, usually you want to enable that you're going to upload your manuscript. Usually, it's going to be a docx file. They don't really accept PDFs, they accept what's known as K PDFs. It's similar to that you can usually take your PDF if that's all you have for your file your document, and you can automatically convert it into a doc or a doc x.
Now your cover creator, just like I said, you're probably gonna want to go over to fiverr.com. Same thing here same as the call to action, your book cover. You know, you're going to want to get a simple one me just like this. Here's Amazon affiliate profits. So it's revealing secret tricks to blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

I mean, so simple ebook cover. And all you have to do is ask for the raw design, you're not getting it as a mock up a 3d mock up, you just need the raw cover. And that's all you're going to upload, as is. So there's people who do this for 510 bucks, usually five, most of the time five, that's all I try and get it for. If you see people, they're charging too much, just type in a five right there in the price range, and three to one. Here's all the people who do it for five bucks, and they're just as good.
So, we're going to go ahead and upload that we already have one, Bada bing bada boom, let's imagine that we did that. It'll come over here. We'll have to launch our previewer we'll have to preview it to make sure that appears correctly. And then we'll save and continue. Once we save and continue. We're then going to go into ebook pricing, ebook pricing, I'm going to cover In the next lecture because it's kind of a big thing in terms of if you want to do it for 99 cents, or if you want to do it for free, because if you want to do it for free, there's an extra step in order to get it so that it's always listed as free inside of the Amazon Marketplace.
