This is a small clip I've taken from the Profitable Publisher program. I wanted to deliver some free value and hope this small tip might help you get more reviews for your new book launch :) If there is anything specific you are struggling with let me know in the comments down below. And if you're serious about making money with KDP, you might want to check this out: www.barrykdp.com/90daypp
Great video. I use bookbite and pubby for low and medium content, such as coloring books. My main worry, is that because my kdp and Amazon accounts are the same, if I leave a lot of unverified reviews it may ban my kdp account. Do you use different account for pubby or do you have information on that issue?
I don't have any experience with this to help you out. I only publish high content books and leave verified reviews on high content books that I read on Amazon :)
I can't say for certain since I only tested it out with high content books but I'm pretty sure you might be able to get unverified reviews for low content books :)
Yes you can upload any book to pubby. What the guy didn’t mention it’s quite expensive with 250 US/year, but you get a 14 free trial to get the first bunch of reviews 🎉 GOOGLE „DONT ASK FOR SUGAR“
Have you tried this for low content? Obviously low content isn’t on kindle store and can’t be downloaded for 99c so curious if it only works for med/ high content books. Love your content btw 👍
@@barrygeorgioukdp but the problem that might happend that pdf of your book all other authors can get access to claim that theirs what do you think about this
I am in awe of all the amazingly good strategies you've figured out. There is only 1 tip which I hesitate to try and that is using review services. I'm worried it's too much of a risk, if there is ANY change of getting my KDP account closed.
Great question. You can upload your book as a PDF on Pubby and people can download it and leave a review. The only downside is that the review will be unverified, but it still gives you the social proof you need :)

Hi Barry. Really appreciate your videos!! Is it legit to have a friend have a Pubby account and they help get reviews for your books through it? ie. I have a Pubby account and they have one under their name but put reviews to your books? Thanks for any answer you can give!
Wow I just had this thought yesterday and now I just saw your comment 😂 I haven't tested it out but when you upload your book on pubby, it goes through a review process which makes me assume that they won't allow two accounts to upload the same book. But that's just a theory :)
@@barrygeorgioukdp no problem man. Your videos are so helpful. Wish I can publish some high content books over time to be able to take advantage of everything I'm learning. Right now only coloring books, so the small margins make it difficult to follow your system and be profitable. Keep it up!
From my experience its okay. I've also messaged customer support a couple years ago and they also said its okay. I'm not sure if anythings changed recently though regarding ARC teams :)
Great video again! I have a question. I use a different one, Bookbite that it's really nice too because they allow you to upload medium and low content book, so you can review mid an low content book too. The thing is that, if you spent 50 dollars in the last 12 months, you can leave reviews, but in thte three last reviews, Amazon rejected them because of policy terms. After that I sent back an email asking for explanations and, after a couple of them, they put back my review online again. So, my question is, hoy often we can make reviews in order of not having this problem? Thanks A LOT for the content of your videos
Thanks for sharing more review sites. I appreciate you trying to help out the community. When it comes to reviews I don't have all the information. I think it's best if you ask amazon or customer service, they will be able to answer any review questions better than I could. The only thing I know from my experience is the review shows up fine and stays on as long as I read over 50% of the kindle version and also leave a review 24 hours after purchasing :)
@TheJarrl How did you get your reviews back? I tried to contact them and had no reply or an automatic reply like a bot linking their community guidelines.
Hello, I also would like to know how you got your reviews back. They suddenly denied mine. I emailed them with no response. How did you contact them? Did they respond?
@@barrygeorgioukdp My pleasure, I believe that we need to help each other to grow further. I have a question, by the way, how it is possible that 1 click cost me 0,8 if i set up the KW in 0,38 and it is down only? The thing is that i set it up today in the morning, is it possible that have a delay or something? Thanks again.
@@barrygeorgioukdp Hi Barry, regarding pubby I want to try it but I want to know do I have to creat new amazon account or using my author account for giving reviews for other authors book please advise? thanks
Hi Barry. My struggle is that I sell my books in the US market but I don't live in the USA. Hence I didn't have an American amazon account to publish my reviews there. You can only publish reviews if you have at least 50 dollars spent on the last 12 months on your account. Pubby doesn't accept reviews from my country so it gets complicated.
In that case, you have to make a purchase for at least 50 dollars. Im not from US either, so I had to do that. I bought something I needed, and i had to pay extra money for the shipment. It's what it is.
@@TheJarrl yes I did. I actually had a good idea and bought credit through a $50 gift card to then use for the Kindle books that I wanted to review. But at some point my reviews started bring rejected because "they couldn't localize me in the USA". And it gets more complicated but I can't comment here because TH-cam blocks my comment if I mention methods to change your IP, if you know...
I've had the same problem and did just that. I'm not from the US but ordered a bunch of books to read from the US instead of the German marketplace so I can leave verified reviews on that marketplace :)
@@barrygeorgioukdp Mi problem is that Amazon is rejecting my reviews lately because apparently I break the policy or whatever, I guess that if you make a bunch of reviews in a short of time, they don't allow you. However, they put my reviews back in the page after I complain by email, but it's very tiring do that. If anybody is in my situation I will be happy to hear for suggestions. Thanks again
You forgot the MOST IMPORTANT moment: In order to write a review on Amazon, you have to have at least 50 USD spent in the last year. That way YOUR friends, family, etc. become useless. It's the same with Pubby. If you didn't spend 50 USD in the last year, you cannot review other people's books, so you will NOT get reviews.

I use Pubby for my low content books and it works just fine.

There is always going to be risk with these services. I'm glad you're enjoying the videos :)
Hey I am from I publish low content and medium content book.
Should I upload my books on pubby. Will I able to write a review??
Please reply
I believe pubby accepts low content books but members of the community are also recommending a website called bookbite for low content reviews
Hi. Can you use Pubby on low content books such as coloring books? I would genuinely appreciate the answer. Thank you

what do you think if it was a different book?
Does pubby work for low and medium content book?
I believe so yes :)
It does. But if it's a coloring book, an activity book or any of that kind you will not be able to have Verified Purchase.
@@RichiAtlanticWind Thanks for helping out 🙏

Thanks for the information. From your experience, does un verified purchase reviews help in low content? @@RichiAtlanticWind
Is it ok that the ARC team is always the same on different books?
From my experience its okay. I've also messaged customer support a couple years ago and they also said its okay. I'm not sure if anythings changed recently though regarding ARC teams :)

When i give my book free i don't know Who are people Who buy my book how can i contact them?
Unfortunately, amazon doesn't give us customer data however you can create a page inside your book to capture leads :)
@@barrygeorgioukdp how? Do you have a video?
Thank you! 😊
:)
Is it good idea to make a group of authors which publish books in same genre so we can get genuine review. Is there anyone who is willing to join
It's a good idea but I think its completely against amazons policy so it will be very easy to get your account restricted :)
@@barrygeorgioukdp ooh ok i dont know why i dont get any reviews for my book even if i got 60 sales per day. As a beginner i dont know what to do
I know reviews are important. That's why I clicked on this video. Get on with How I get..... PUHLEASE!!!
All you have to do is skip to the 2 minute mark. After that point I show you 3 ways to get reviews :)
You forgot the MOST IMPORTANT moment: In order to write a review on Amazon, you have to have at least 50 USD spent in the last year. That way YOUR friends, family, etc. become useless.

Completely agree. Your ARC team must be able to leave reviews on Amazon which means they must have spent over $50 over the past year :)
