@Abbie Haiberstadt That's great…I want you to go through these tips and let me know in my inbox if you see it helpful and I will give you more tips and guidelines: **No Amazon KDP Sales? Here Are 9 Crucial Reasons Why and How to Fix Them** 1. **Keywords Not in Demand**: You need to identify keywords that potential readers are actively searching for on Amazon. 2. **Keywords Too Competitive**: Even if a keyword is profitable, it might be overly competitive, making it difficult to rank. 3. **Keywords Too Broad**: Narrowing down your keywords will help you target a more specific audience. 4. **Unattractive Cover**: Remember, people do judge a book by its cover. This is one of the most important elements of your book's appeal. 5. **Book Title Issues**: - The keyword is not included in the title. - There are grammatical errors. - The title is either too long or too short. - The title is a copy of someone else’s. - The title fails to clearly convey what the book is about. Let me know your thoughts on this! I can provide the rest. ❤️💜
