Adding Kindle Book Details - Part 1
All right. So the first thing we're going to do is walk through this first Kindle ebook details page. And I'm going to show you the example that I already did for this case study. And then I'm gonna use the landscape photography book that I'm going to publish. Next as another example of how to do it. So here you can quickly see that I already had a title 52 Photography Challenges. And then the subtitle one year of inspiration to improve your photography. I came up with that, but you can have chat GP T help with this. So for example, what I would do with my landscape photography workshop course that I'm converting to a book, which in essence, would be the same if I just started from scratch, using the outline that we created in Chat G BT and had it work through all of those chapters. But I want to use the one I'm actually going to publish for our case study. I'm keeping it all in the same thread of this um this prompt. So it's all organized. I'm going to ask Chachi Pt to write out five ...
title ideas for this book. I'm also going to have them be seo friendly, make them seo friendly for Amazon. So here we're getting some title ideas and what I have found beneficial for doing this is I can mix and match. So I don't necessarily have to take the first one or one of these. I can take the title and then also the subtitle, which on Amazon KDP, you're going to need the subtitle, something to note and be aware of though, is that one? This can't be changed after being published. So unlike things like youtube titles or online courses where you can play around with the title, um It has to be this after you publish it. And then also the title has and subtitle has to be on the cover of the book. So when you're designing your book cover, you gotta make sure that you can fit all that text and make it look nice. And so the title, you might not want it to be a super long sort of fill packed with a bunch of keywords. You might want it to be kind of more basic. So it shows up on Amazon better. So mastering landscape photography, that's great essential techniques and tips for captivating nature shots. I think landscape photography has to be in the title. Mastering landscape photography. I like that a step by step guide to perfecting your landscape at RV skills. I like that essential techniques and tips for captivating nature shots. I like that as well. So I'm gonna take the first part, mastering landscape photography for our new book. And then for the second one, I'm going to take unlocking the secret. This is where you can be a little bit more creative with it. I think I like this one best because it matches what this specific class is. Pro tips and techniques for capturing nature's majesty. I might adjust this to capturing beautiful landscapes. Yeah, we can play around with that. I would probably spend a little bit more time kind of thinking about this. But I'm gonna put that in for now series. We're skipping edition. We're skipping author. We're gonna put my name, contributors leave that. All right, description. We have a 4000 characters. So I found that chat GP t um didn't understand characters exactly, but we can prompt it and see. So I'm gonna write, write a 4000 character description of this book for Amazon. It should be se optimized with keywords related to landscape photography. It should be inspiring and have a list of key takeaways from the book. We can start with this prompt and then edit later. So as this finishes up, I can see that it's using the title of the book several times. Great for Keyword and seo for that title, it has that list of key takeaways which is visually nice and easy for our readers. I'm going to take it to word counter dot net where you can do a character counter and see that it does a pretty good job. So 3000 characters, it didn't follow the 4000. Exactly. Here's where you might want to go in. Of course, you want to edit these things, you want to make sure that you're using things like bolding and um just formatting to make it look nice on the Amazon page and then you would go in and edit this. Uh Next we have publishing rights, so you own the copyright. Although this is sort of a blurred area where we're still figuring out who truly owns the copyright to the material that Chat GP T and these other A I tools produce for us. If it's taken from your work, your videos that you've created, converted to text that's rewritten, using these tools that's different than having it written all by itself where Chat GP T was trained on text that was on the internet from other places. And it's combining that text in a way that it's trying to be unique to you, although that might be coming from somewhere else. And so there's sort of a blurred line where we have to figure this out for. Now. It's kind of up to you to determine whether you want to say you own the copyright or not. You can also put it as a public domain work, but that means other people can use your, your books for you. They can kind of just take it, resell it, repackage it however you want. Um But also you gotta be careful and you might want to edit it. There's some plagiarism detectors out there that you might want to try out and these things are gonna get better and better. But um this is definitely sort of a tricky area right now with the new A I world that we're in. The next section is keywords. So let me show you the keywords that I have put in for our, our other book right here. So we have photography, portrait, photography, photography, for beginners, photography techniques, et cetera. These are all keywords that what is a keyword, it's a word that someone might be searching for or what's related to your book. So if someone searches for it, it will show up. And so this is another area you can ask. Cha GP T we have a list of seven keywords, write a list of seven keywords or key phrases for this book. I'm gonna re write that, write a list of seven keywords for this book. I might do both separately because it looks like it did key phrases and keywords, landscape photography, major, photography, photography, composition, like lighting techniques. You always want to make sure that your keywords, your description, the things that you are putting into your landing page essentially for your book match what is in the book. Because if it doesn't, then your the expectation from the audience is not being met. So for example, if I had portrait photography in here, because I thought, well, this is about portrait, I, that's a popular topic and I want this book to show up. But then people who are searching for portrait photography see this and they're like, what is this about then? That's not good. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to take out lighting techniques. I'm gonna take this, I'm gonna add in photography using my brain. I'm gonna say travel photography is one is a topic that someone might who search for travel, photography might want this book as well. And then I'll have landscape because I do have a section on editing, photography, editing. All right. So those are keywords. Next, we're gonna look at categories. This is a whole science in itself as well. And the way we are going to determine the categories we're in because you might be like, well, what categories do I want? You can go in here and you could actually just go in and choose them. So set categories and you can kind of search through and try to find what categories you are good for you. The other way to do this is if you're on Amazon dot com, you can go to Kindle, which there's a link up here at the top and then we can go to categories and here you can kind of start to start to see an easier view of what the categories are. Arts and photography is likely where our book is going to be. And then underneath here on the left under department, you can see that there's even some more subcategories. So once we have sort of a general understanding where what department or category it is, we can go from there or if we want to just let's go back to the home page of Kindle books and search for, let's go ahead and search for landscape photography. We can look at these other books. I'm gonna open the top selling books. This one here, this one here, this one here. And then when you're on this page for these books, you can find the categories that they are in by scrolling down to the product detail and you can see digital photography, photography, reference, digital photography as well in books. That's kind not the Kindle one. So let's go to great landscape photography and see as well. Digital photography, photography reference this last one, photography reference, it's only in photography or reference. So that's interesting. So you want to make sure that you are using two categories because putting it in two categories that are also not in the same main category helps because it will make your book show up in separate places, especially on those best seller lists if you end up on a best seller. So let's go ahead and under nonfiction, there's going to be a photography section and I just know this. So you might, you know, need to kind of like figure this out yourself over time, depending on, on your, your topic. So you could put it under general or we could put it under, there's an specific landscape category which is good. I would do that because now let me show you. So if I was just under general, this is a nice way to see this. Our book. If someone is searching on Amazon and they're going by categories, our book would show up under landscape category, under subjects and themes under photography. But if we had just chosen general, it wouldn't show up under this landscapes category. So you wanna go specific, even though we're under a landscape, it'll still go under the photography um category and then under nonfiction as well under photography, we are going to put it under maybe reference that might be good. Trying to think if there was anything else techniques could be under there as well. Digital photography might be a better place to put it instead of reference. I'm trying to like dive into digital photography that might be at not under there. Yeah, I would probably do that. I think those are probably the best for this book. It's under landscape subjects, themes, photography, as well as digital techniques, photography, because it is technically a technique as well. So then I would save that and it adds there. So basically for categories, what you're doing is you're trying to find subcategories that are not in the same exact main category or subcategory. So I wouldn't pick like two categories under subjects and themes. I try to spread it out so that our book shows up more age, age range, grade level. This is only if you, your book has that. This book doesn't preorder if you want to have it for preorder where you want like a specific launch date in the future and you want to build up some marketing, you can have that available for preorder or just publish it as soon as you can publish it. So I'm gonna click save and continue. And then in the next video, we'll go over the Kindle Ebook content, which is where we're going to use the Kindle editor that Amazon provides to format properly, get our actual file ready to upload to Amazon.

I have been using ChatGPT since early this year and love it, but there's always more to learn to pass along to clients. What a great, practical class with cookbook like instructions for getting set up and using it on various platforms. Funny enough, I was uploading art I created in AI and doctored up in photoshop while I was listening :) Well done!
