 Self-publishing on Amazon, especially no content and low content books on the KDP platform is a great way to make money online. You create your book and then put there on Amazon waiting to be bought.

 So from that one-off time spent creating a book, you can be making sales now 10 years in the future. And even whilst you're asleep and that's what we call a passive income. But it needn't stop there because there are ways to make even more money from Amazon Kindle books you create.

I'm going to show you five ways you can leverage that initial work in creating a book to make sales on other online platforms, if you're new here and don't know what low content books are, they are books like planners, diaries, journals, log books, coloring books, puzzle books. In fact, there are more of these types of books than you could possibly imagine,

 many making a lot of money selling on Amazon. And the reason I like creating and selling these types of books is that you can create your digital files. That's the book cover and book interior, upload them to Amazon and let them just sit there, waiting to be bought.

 There is no cost to store them. The traffic is free. And when you make a sale, Amazon prints out the book and deals with the fulfillment to the customer and any customer support. And as your books get found and you slowly create more books, this income can grow and grow. 

 But there are ways to make more money from those digital files you've created already have stored on your computer. So leveraging that initial time you spent on creating the books in the first place, even more.

1 Way to earn from Amazon Kindle -  Creative Fabrica

Creative Fabrica. Now many of you and I include myself this has purchased interior files from Creative Fabrica. And if I do a general search for KDP interiors, we have pages and pages of different types of interiors, and they vary considerably. And they can be for single types of interiors to bundles of interiors. But instead of buying them, what about selling them now? 

I don't know how well they're selling on Creative Fabrica, but I've bought quite a few myself. And from some of the emails I've received from sellers, they are making pretty good sales. You can earn up to 75% on each sale. It's free to open an account and you can request a payout anytime you like. So, if you create your own interiors or outsource their creation, you can upload them as a PDF file, but customers directly upload to the KDP platform and as vector files in.ai, .eps, and .svg formats,

2 Way to earn from Amazon Kindle -  Etsy

 you can sell KDP interiors here, but what's more popular are printables. Now you may be asking what are printables? Well, these are files like this planner here that customers can download as a PDF file and then print out. And from these printouts, they can make their own books, notepads, and activity sheets, which are very popular. These are things like calendars, handwriting sheets, coloring pages, and puzzle books. Planners, such as the one I've shown you and things like budget planners, holiday planners, and student planners are also very popular.

 You can even offer them in a customized version too. Again, Etsy has the advantage of already having a large customer base that you can leverage. I always used to think of Etsy as selling physical products, but again, you can sell digital products that don't cost anything to store or send out

3 Way to earn from Amazon Kindle -  Amazon Ignite

There's some of you may not have come across and thought about, and that's Amazon Ignite. Now, unfortunately, this is only for sellers that reside in the US but don't worry, I'll show you a similar site next time that's available to sellers all over the world. It's also an invitation only. So you have to apply similarly to Merch by Amazon. So what is Amazon Ignite

Well, it's a marketplace on Amazon for sellers to sell digital educational resources. For example, a handwriting practice book, identical to those handwriting books that KDP publishers create, reading guides, and puzzle books. They are educational material aimed at different age groups and, as they are not printed by Amazon, it doesn't cost you more to create color versions. 

Either. Another big plus to this platform is that they pay out 70% royalties or slightly less if your book is $2.99 or less, which is more than KDP. And looking at the number of reviews these products have, they are making decent sales. I expect Amazon Ignite will probably roll out to different countries in the future. 

4 Way to earn from Amazon Kindle -  Teacherspayteachers


 is similar to Amazon Ignite, but available for sellers all over the world. And that's teacherspayteachers.com. It's also free to open an account and they payout via PayPal. It's a platform where teachers and publishers, like yourself, can publish educational content like these handwriting practice books and puzzle books. Great. If you've already created the interiors for these types of books on KDP. Many of the products here have thousands of reviews again indicating good potential sales. Looking at this, it looks like you can even create interactive digital versions of your files as well.

5 Way to earn from Amazon Kindle -  Fiverr

. Now, the last and fifth platform, and one of my favorites is Fiverr. It's easy to get started. And one of the easiest ways to make money online, especially if you're just starting out and have a skill that is monetizable. And these can be simple skills. It's a platform where you can sell interiors that you've already created.

 Or you can offer a service or gig as it's called, of creating customized or original bespoke interiors. Great if you're an artist-illustrator or graphic designer and you don't have to sell at $5 either. You can sell for more, depending on the level of your gig. Now, in order to make sales on these platforms, you are going to need traffic. Some of these platforms already have traffic like Amazon and Creative Fabrica. So you'll need your products to get found using keywords and optimizing your listings. Very similar to KDP books.

 Now, remember you may not make a fortune from these different platforms unless you decide to specialize and really make it your business and success will depend on how much time and work you put into them. But they are additional sources of income, which is important in any online business. First of all, these sources can all add up to a pretty decent income. And also the more income streams you have, the more you're protected if one of these streams goes down for whatever reason.
