As long as my books were under CreateSpace, they were generating little royalties. KDP took over, sales gone, no royalties. KDP keeps insisting on spending hundreds of $ on advt. Indeed, Self-Publishing is a trap by companies to grab money from innocent authors.

Plateforme d'autoédition facile d'accès. Papier et impression qualitatifs. Oui mais... - Les salariés Amazon ne sont pas formés spécifiquement pour le livre ; lorsque vous commanderez vos exemplaires, ils seront emballés comme des DVD, sans protection, et arriveront en grande majorité abîmés. Evidemment KDP vous remboursera/remplacera lesdits exemplaires, mais c'est une grosse perte de temps. - Ensuite, j'ai constaté des irrégularités en ce qui concerne le paiement des redevances dues par KDP. Plusieurs achats de livres faits par mes contact sur les réseaux n'apparaissent pas dans les historiques de vente mis à disposition de KDP. Allez savoir combien de ventes ils s'approprient ainsi. Et nous n'avons aucun moyen de vérifier. Du vol pur et simple. - Ensuite, KDP se permet de modifier le prix de vente de nos livres à sa convenance. Illégal ! - Sachez par ailleurs que vos ouvrages ne seront pas référencés en librairies. Elles ne pourront donc pas le commander. Donc oui, facilité d'accès, rémunération supérieure à d'autres plateformes (quand les redevances sont payées), mais pour le reste, je déconseille fortement KDP. Bon courage à tous les auteurs et autrices dans ce monde de requins.

My six-month contract involved me paying an exorbitant sum up front, on the understanding the money would be refunded if my book did not hit sales targets. Sales were catastrophically bad, but after 13 months, I have only received 7.9 percent of my money. Almost immediately after I signed up, they began the hard-sell routine. I turned down illustrations, because they did not fit my kind of book. However, when I refused a $10,000-plus audiobook package, they stopped working on my project. Completely. For four months. Still no sales. At that point I got a new project manager, who promised to "make things right." KDP extended my contract to ten months. After a barrage of hard-sell phone calls from them, I convinced them I did not need an overpriced webhosting package. Then, six months in, I discovered my book had not been categorized, and was therefore was not appearing in Amazon search listings. By the time it finally did appear, it had zero sales in six months, which meant it was at the very bottom of the listings. I asked them to relaunch my book, to at least give my book a fighting chance, but they refused. Thus the promotional package I got wasn't useless: it was WORSE than useless. They ended up GIVING a bunch of books away, and my earnings to date are a few dollars.

Absolut nicht zu empfehlen. Größter haufen schmutz überhaupt. Bücher mit eine 1 Sternen Bewertung sind besser gerankt als welche mit 17x5 🌟 Bewertung nur weil ein halbes nackter anemie Charakter drauf ist. Ads ist reine abzocke es wirft dein buch zu menschen die nach komplett anderen Dingen gesucht hat nur damit du für denn klick zahlen kannst. Support keine ahnung. Auszahlung hängen sie jetzt schon wochen hinterher aber wenn es um die ads kosten von dir geht die sind ganz schnell abgebucht. Verbrecher sind das mehr nicht

If I could give KDP zero stars, I would. It was supposed to be an easy way for people to self-publish their books. At first, things went well, and I was even earning a bit of money. But every time they updated their site, my books ended up with errors, and I had to constantly had to go through them and re-upload. Then I started getting warnings saying my keywords were wrong. I read through their guidelines over and over again, desperately trying to figure out what the issue was, but their AI security checks kept flagging my books without explaining why. I reached out for help so many times, practically begging for guidance, but got absolutely no support. They blocked my account a few times, and when I queried it, they’d apologise and tell me it was a mistake – only to suspend me again the same day for supposedly having issues with my keywords. Before I even had a chance to fix anything, they terminated my account completely. To top it off, they kept that entire month’s earnings. KDP is honestly the worst, most useless, and completely unprofessional.

Amazon tried to change position of text to picture. They stuck text in the op of the picture instead below. They leave off capitals and punctuation. Crappy publishing company. DO NOT USE!

Just got terminated by KDP for “multiple accounts” with zero proof. Total BS. I’ve had my account for a while, no issues—until now. I write children’s books, and this is the treatment I get? Ridiculous. KDP will nuke your hard work over nothing. Beware before you waste your time.

Kdp Amazon is supposed to be an easy and convenient solution for publishers but instead they are just trying take a piss out of you all the time. Making unnecessary changes and coming up with new ideas that makes everything a complete mess. Now they forcing me to change the interior font size drastically which will result a huge mess.. all they want with this to get more money out of it as the printing cost will increase as well… do not choose amazon if you are considering publishing your book, I only had so much headache with this site. Not worth it!!!
