HOW TO AVOID BAD REVIEWS ON AMAZONKDP
The start of depression for a writer is very simple and having bad reviews is one.
Nothing hurts like spending months even years into perfecting a book and someone takes only an hour of reading to call it trash.
Here are some few reasons for bad reviews on Amazonkdp::
.
★ POOR WRITING: Ranging from grammar errors to typos and poor sentence structures. No one likes to spend on something with no quality.
.
★ MISMATCHED EXPECTATIONS: Your writing might not be poor but when it doesn't match up the standard as in it's description and marketing, most readers don't hold back in dropping negative reviews..
.
★ PRICE CONCERNS: Selling your books at a price that doesn't match it's quality or even length(wordcount)...
.
★ EDITING & PROOFREADING: This is where experts in this field come in. When there is lack of professional editing in a book, definitely, the bad reviews swim in.
.
There are lots of reasons...
- Unresolved Expectations...
- Formatting problems...
- Cover design...
- Offensive contents...
- Plot /content issues...
And lots more...
Definitely, bad reviews have an impact on your book! Be it a fiction, memoir, how-to tutorials, whatever it is.
- It does deter buyers.
You definitely won't spend a dime on a product with so much bad reviews from previous customers. The same way you check for reviews on play store before downloading an app, readers check out for reviews first.
- Also, it affects ranking.
With so much bad reviews, Amazon's algorithm is likely to push your book down the ranks in search results.. reducing it discovery and visibility..
With that being stated, there are lots of courses online and webinars where you can learn how to avoid this.
There are professional editors, beta readers, proofreaders and the likes on Upwork and Fiverr, but the question remains..
Can you afford them?
A simple trick I've learnt, is to connect little goals to the big picture..
Every writer out there dreams to have 200+ million copies of his/her book sold with heartwarming reviews from fans and readers, and that's the big picture..
What are your little goals that will help you achieve that?
I love to tell starters on Amazonkdp, if you're sure you have no fan base on social media for marketing, you might want to pause in uploading your piece on Amazon.
Or if already you've uploaded it and yet, you've made not one sale in months, why not start with the basics??
The fiction market is competitive already with readers going for their favourite writer in every genre, only a few are willing to try something new.
How do you beat such market and stand out?
Start with the basics, I'll say!
Low content books!!
That market can never be oversaturated!
If I buy a Harry Potter series, or Lord of the rings, whatever novel it is!... Once I'm done reading, I'd place it on my shelf or wherever I keep my books, to return to it when I feel a need to re-read, right?
But if I get a blank journal and i keep writing in it till it fills up, the only option is to get another, right or wrong?
Blank journals, colouring book for kids, log books, and any low content book you can think of, is always in constant demand! Therefore, making continuous sales from one person is ensured.
You might ask, why dive into low content books?
It's an easy way to learn more about Amazonkdp formatting processes, keywords, descriptions, pricing and all of that, whilst you earn!
And here, you don't have to bother about hiring professionals. It's easier to market and sell with less negative reviews!
While you're making sales, you save up for the main picture! Which is selling your very own masterpiece!
Now you've not only earned a fortune, but now you can fund your actual dream and avoid negative reviews and whatnot.
You've also worked up the algorithm.
If you've made so much sales from low content books, when you publish a novel or guide, Amazon still would rank your work high up on search results.
Now, when you go through YouTube, you'd find lots of tips on how to create low content books.
You'd also find websites for downloading free templates you can use to make work easier.
If you really want to start out on your Amazonkdp journey or you're already on the path but really want to change your approach, trust me. Low content books are the best.
