Things You Might Not Know About Kindle Publishing
- Kindle just recently started what they call a "Countdown Deal" as a way to elevate interest in your eBook (if you signed up for the Select program). You set up how long you want your eBook to be on sale and there is a countdown clock on your eBook product page!
- You no longer need to embed your cover photo in the document to send to Kindle to be published.
- If you create your book cover using the Kindle Cover Creator software, you cannot use that same cover if you publish your book in Smashwords or to Barnes & Nobles.
- The best size for images inside your kindle book is around 600 pixels by 800 pixels.
- The description of your Kindle book can be up to 4,000 characters.
