Relevance of the Amazon author central link

Do you want to know the relevance of the Amazon author central link? This post has you covered.

Why are we talking about relevance of the Amazon author central link?

The reason why I am talking about the relevance of the Amazon author central link today on this blog is as result of my experience and interactions with a large percentage of the authors our Publishing organization, Zarepath Publishing has helped to self-publish their books on Amazon over the years.

We have offered this service to a lot of authors in my country. We have helped them to achieve their long-term dream of becoming published authors and to have their books listed on the most popular store online – the Amazon store.

If you want this service, you can contact Zarepath Publishing now.

Let me show you one of the interactions with one of the authors on this issue of having an Amazon author central link in their published books. This should set the tone for the remaining contents in this post.

After receiving his manuscript and checking it to see what we can do to get it ready for publishing on Amazon, I replied this way:

I just checked your doc. Well formatted. Though the link to your Amazon author central can be included at the beginning or at the of the book

Though your other books were listed and your website listed. Your Amazon author central link should be included at the end of the list of books.

An Amazon author central account is a free account that Amazon authors must set up where readers can find all others books by the author on Amazon.

It makes it easier for them to buy books directly from the author on Amazon since they are already used to buying on Amazon.

This is a good way to sell other books you have to readers of your books.

What you have above has always been the same message we pass across to most authors who don’t see any reason why they have to include this link in their books.

A potent way to build an audience as an author

This is what, according to a news release from Written Word Media, consider a potent way to build an audience as an author:

If you’re looking to increase your author earnings, it’s important to focus on what your author business will look like in the future and how you can get there.

So, in addition to a solid catalog of books, what do high-earning authors have? A large audience of readers who buy the author’s new titles, buy their other titles, leave reviews, and spread the word to other readers.

How do they build this audience? Lots of ways, but one of the easiest and most effective ways is by running free promotions where they make their book, usually the first in a series, free. And shout it from rooftops.
