One of the biggest mistakes I made early in my Amazon KDP journey was jumping from niche to niche instead of building authority around a specific audience. I published books on all kinds of topics because they sounded interesting, but that approach made it much harder to gain momentum. Once I started focusing on related topics and creating multiple books for the same audience, sales became much more consistent. A few key takeaways: ✅ Don't just publish books—build a strategy. ✅ Focus on an audience, not just a single book idea. ✅ Think about how one book can lead to your next book. ✅ Consider how your books can support a business, community, coaching program, or personal brand. 🔍 Research First with Publisher Rocket 🏫 Create Your own Skool Community The authors who build the strongest publishing businesses often aren't chasing random opportunities—they're creating an ecosystem of books that work together. 🤔 Question: If you could become known for ONE topic or niche as an author, what would it be, and why did you choose that niche?

Hi Krista, Some keywords show high search volume in Publisher Rocket (e.g. 5,000+ searches) and a very low competition score (around 3), but they don’t appear in Amazon autocomplete when typing into the search bar. Would you still consider using keywords like this, or is the lack of Amazon autocomplete a red flag?
