Kindle - The New Frontier for Cash

[BlackCat67]

I got banhammered from KDP yesterday, I was cranking $350 to $400 a month for over 12 months with with 6 books.

So Yes it still works,
Yes you need original well written content,
Yes you need a great cover

Don't use free web content or public domain

Once you do your first book the rest are easy.

Go and do it. You will bank.

I outsource the covers to designers on DP, 5 bucks will usually get you a nice cover.

What was the cause for Amazon dropping the BanHammer?

Well you can get more , if you give them bonuses or discounts

Like old price : $9.99 . New price : $4.99
People will think that they getting huge discount and more people will buy

Just a tip

What was the cause for Amazon dropping the BanHammer?

I've posted another thread about the reasons I was banned, but basically they said: non original freely available web content.

I need to mix it up a bit more. Turns out I set up a spare account when I started, so I'm good.

Just write original content mixed with a small bit of Public Domain. There is gold in Kindle. That is for sure.

Sounds like you are off to a good start.

TBH, I haven't heard very much at all about Internet marketing on Kindle. All I know is that kindle was the number one product sold at Amazon during Xmas. I think everyone got a Kindle fire...and lots of people are using them on airplane flights.

Is it possible to research what types of books are selling best on Kindle?

As I mentioned in another thread, Google Amanda Hocking, author. She made 2 million in a short time on kindle during Xmas. She tells you exactly how she did it on her blog. And I'll bet you are a better writer. I read one of her books on "Google Books" and it was God awful...full of grammar mistakes.

Go for what the masses want and not so much the Internet Marketers.
