SEO
7/22/20254 min read


Getting a book written is an achievement itself. Then comes the whole process of getting it published and ensuring that people read it — that's the real challenge. A growing number of authors, entrepreneurs, software experts, and thought leaders in Cyprus are employing the function of Amazon self-publishing to reach readers worldwide.
Amazon was a real game changer for the independent author. Gone are the days when you must depend on big-name publishers. You have, at your disposal, all the tools to create, publish, and market your work at your leisure. Still, an independent author has to carefully strategize each process step as if launching a business or a software product.
In this guide, we break down the process for Cypriot authors looking to get their books written, published, and marketed by Amazon, and how working with a trusted partner, such as Skyrocket Marketers Agency, can help your book stand out amidst so many others in the market.
Why Amazon Self-Publishing is Just Right for Authors from Cyprus
With all its towns and villages dotted all around a Mediterranean island, Cyprus is small on size. On the contrary, talent-wise, it is rather gigantic. Several entrepreneurs, software developers, business owners, and coaches have a story or some piece of knowledge to share. Amazon self-publishing offers a way to get beyond Cyprus — minus any gatekeepers.
Why local authors choose Amazon are:
· Worldwide exposure: Your books get spread instantaneously to millions of readers across the world.
· Total control: You keep rights, set your pricing, and decide the format.
· Higher royalty: In self-publishing, you make a higher cut per sale than in the traditional league.
· Speed: You can publish within days on Kindle or Print once done.
Now this consciousness of anyone being able to publish does not ensure anyone is able to make it. It all boils down to planning, designing, and promoting.
Step 1: Make a Great Book
The manuscript is just the beginning. What really distinguishes self-published books on Amazon that succeed are books that are excellently written and beautifully packaged. Here's what you need to get right:
· Editing: Hire a qualified editor to check grammar, flow, and structure.
· Formatting: You have to format your manuscipt for Kindle eBook and Print (Paperback/Hardcover).
· Cover Design: A professionally designed cover makes all the difference. People judge a book by its cover.
· Metadata: Metadata includes Title, Subtitle, Description, and Keywords, which would help Amazon's algorithm place your book in front of the right readers.
Treating a book as a product means the book will be subjected to some marketing, thus more sales.
In case you need an expert opinion on any of the steps, Skyrocket Marketers Agency's content creation services can take you from draft to finished book.
Step 2: Publish Your Book on Amazon KDP
Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) is the self-publishing platform of Amazon. It is very user-friendly; however, one has to be mindful to undergo each and every step:
· Create a KDP Account: Just login through your Amazon username and password.
· Upload Manuscript and Cover: Your files must be in compliance with KDP's file size and format requirements.
· Set Price: You can set your price to enroll into Kindle Unlimited or just standard sales.
· Select Royalties: Default is 70% royalties for authors who price their eBooks between $2.99-9.99.
· Choose Categories: Categories and keywords get the book out to the readers. Be very specific-niche categories usually help you rank better.
· Preview and Publish: Always preview your book on various devices to spot errors before going live.
Step 3: Promoting the Book in Cyprus and Beyond
Publishing is step one. Selling is step two — and there are a lot of Cypriot authors missing the latter step. Amazon has millions of offers in its marketplace. In order for a reader to find your book, there must be a chicken, promotion plan at hand.
