[00:02] play on this video this is basically a beginner's guide because i am literally only four to five months old with kdp so i want to share with you um how to validate a niche on kdp and you might be asking like who are you to
[00:17] be teaching me this when you're only five months old if you watch one of my previous videos even the march 2022 income goals i've already crossed the 2 000 mark so these are the things that helped me and i just want to share them
[00:31] with you to help save you some of the pain and learning curve part of me i'm going to review free options first so you know that you don't need to be discouraged by spending money the first one is the amazon search bar
[00:46] if you go into the incognito tab any type of web browser you can pull this up and go to amazon.com and you can start typing in words that interest you
[00:58] maybe it's ketosis maybe it's fitness maybe it's sewing maybe it's uh running diet there's so many different things but going into the search bar will let
[01:12] been searched you can't see the number free apps but you can start validating like okay people actually search for this the second thing is like looking at the
[01:26] best sellers those are the best way to see what's validated because you'll be able to draw inspiration from that and you don't need any apps for that facebook promotes that to you anyways maybe even get emails about the
[01:38] youtube videos this was a great way that i got started there's so many kdp niches that have a lot of searches but not a lot of books in it so i went that route and have found success that way ghostwriting sites this is incredible i
[01:54] have been wanting to work on a project and i've been really kind of intimidated the book that i would that i've drawn my inspiration from it makes about eight to ten thousand dollars a month and so i bought it just to gain that
[02:09] about and i was really overwhelmed with this that and then yesterday i was on a ghostwriting site and it shows the covers of books they've
[02:23] published and guess what was on there the book that i bought that i wanted to pattern mine after so that was huge validation of like okay if this person with all these credentials hired that out like i have a
[02:37] chance of being successful with my idea so i'm so excited to move forward now knowing that uh they used a ghostwriter you know that really empowers me to be like i can figure this out
[02:49] bought from amazon there's so many things that i have worked up in my library where i'm very interested in specific topics so you can look at
[03:02] those things and then go into the amazon search bar and see how much more they're a lot of marketing books a lot of self-development books that's something that i'm definitely interested in but i have a wide range of passions and if you
[03:15] go look through my previous videos i share why it's important to publish on your passions it just helps it to you know create this consistency and sustainability that you need so look at the books that you've already
[03:28] purchased now for paid this is what really changed for me was being able to see the power of validating a niche and my favorite one um will come after this i use publisher rocket
[03:42] and they have a one-time fee and i was able to find a lot of great things and i actually was able to find competitors to what i wanted to keep with and i even found their youtube page
[03:54] so it was really interesting how publisher rocket gives you information and as i always say information leads to inspiration the one that i'm currently book beam is telling you how many
[04:06] searches how many competitors there are and um i really like it so i've used it for some validated niches that are selling now and as i get into high content book bean will be right by my side
[04:19] other things that i've used are apps designed for kdp if you go to the chrome and they give you data of how many times an item is searched and it's really important to use multiple types of software and apps so you can cross
[04:34] examine the data to validate a niche by using more than one using more than one platform to me that has just okay x x x check check check once i have those up i know i'm good to go
[04:47] niche and what you're struggling with love you guys peace out
