Since Amazon’s Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) was launched in 2007, self-published authors have been able to upload their books to the Kindle Store and earn royalties of up to 70%. But how much do self-published authors actually make on Amazon?
The answer, unfortunately, is that it varies greatly. Some authors make very little, while others have made millions. The vast majority of self-published authors falls somewhere in between these two extremes.
There are a number of factors that will affect how much money you can make with KDP. These include the price of your book, the number of books you sell, and the royalty rate you receive.
The price of your book is probably the most important factor in determining your earnings. If you price your book too low, you may sell a lot of copies but make very little money. On the other hand, if you price your book too high, you may not sell many copies at all. Finding the right price for your book can be a tricky balancing act.
