DWP Episode 20: Why Amazon is Dominating for Indies

Dauntless Writing Podcast Episode 20: Why Amazon is Dominating for Indies

There are more places out there to stick your indie published book on. But I advise sticking to Amazon when you’re just starting out. Why? I’m not being sponsored by Amazon, and I don’t agree with everything they’re doing. But if you don’t have a massive fanbase, I advise sticking to KDP. If you’re wondering why most indies sell most of their books through Amazon, then this Podcast episode will tell you. This is why Amazon is dominating for indies. In this Podcast:

• It’s all about discoverability for a starting authors;
• Platforms are search engines;
• The difference between platforms, such as iTunes, Nook and Kobo, and why they suck;
• Why Amazon rocks for Indies;
• How Amazon’s uncaring attitude is working in your favor;
• Tips to getting discovered on Amazon, that does not work on the other platforms;
• Amazon needs competition for the good of us all, but the other platforms are unwilling to step up to the plate;
• Why the iBook store is useless;
