How To Use Keywords To Sell More Kindle Ebooks Amazon is in fact a big retail search engine, so when potential book buyers start looking for a new book to read, they very often begin by searching. Therefore, you want your book to appear when people use a search term associated with your book. This will only happen though, if you have researched and selected the right keywords. Where do you start? Firstly, let’s go back one step. The two categories (genres) you have chosen are crucial, and need to be as narrowly focused as possible. Once that is done, it’s time to add your seven keywords or keyword phrases. Think about the topics, themes, geographical settings and period in your book, and start making a list of the possibilities. Because at the bottom of the first page of search results, Google give you a list of related searches, so you can note more possibilities for your keyword list. Once you have a list of possibilities, go back to Amazon. Now, in the search box, start to enter your keyword, but don’t hit enter.
