Amazon has been one of the best and paying for publishers to publish books and other items. Amazon self- publishing is a simple option if you ’re an indie author looking to publish an eBook or paperback book (through Amazon’s print- on- demand service) with lesser hassle normally set up throughout the publishing industry. It won’t fetch you anything right to publish on KDP, though Amazon does abate the cost to publish your book from your royalties if you ’re retailing paperback readings.
But if you blindly succeed the specialized steps to publish your book on Amazon without taking the time to do it right, you’ll end up with a book you won’t be proud of. You merit better price than that.
How Long Does It Take to Publish a Book on Amazon?
you can publish a book on Amazon in less than couple of minutes and your book appears on Kindle Store about 24-48 hours.
Some articles promise that if you follow their steps, you can be published by the end of the day. That’s true, I guess. But rushing through it will usually make your book, and thus you, look bad.
Note: Amazon offers two types of publishing options. These steps are specifically for Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) and not Amazon traditional publishing (Amazon Publishing).
