How to Publish an eBook on Amazon For Free

self-publishing-on-amazon

Amazon is much more than a ginormous online store. Did you know Amazon is also the largest paid search engine in the world? People don’t Google things ready to buy, like they do with Amazon or eBay.

But when it comes to selling books, ebooks more specifically, no one will argue Amazon is where it’s at.

And Yes! You too can get published, see your message spread, and make some money using nothing more than a keyboard and your brain.

Here’s how:

Step 1: Write (or Re-Write)

This is by far the most complicated step, unless of course you already have a manuscript, such as a private label ebook to start from. Once you have an acceptable version of your book written, you’re 80% done!

Step 2: Format and Design

For best results, you’ll need to format your ebook for Kindle, for example using a free app called Calibre. Then, you’ll need to design a cover. Either DIY or hire Glorious Media to do this for you.

Step 3: Publish

This 10 minute step actually makes your book available for sale on Amazon.com. Simply sign-in at kdp.amazon.com and follow the user friendly publishing instructions therein.

Now that you’ve submitted your ebook for review, all you can do is wait 24-48 hours before your work goes live on the Amazon website.

Remember, ebook publishing is more than a cost effective way to grow your business or ministry, it’s a great way to fulfill the Great Commission! #TGBATG
