Designing a book cover is your most important creative decision after writing the book. But often what we are attracted to is not necessarily what works for readers and online stores. Derek Murphy outlines what a good cover will always have.

Update: after making a big fuss about this, posting some articles and mailing my email list, I got Amazon to back down and restore my account. More details here:
http://www.creativindie.com/how-i-got-kicked-out-of-kindle-unlimited-and-lost-50000-overnight/
Here's the original post:
I had one old book in my KDP account I thought wasn't on any other platform, so I put it in KDP Select.
2 days later I got an email saying that book was found on Google Play (no idea how it got there, but might have done it years ago).
SO they are going to kick ALL my books out of Kindle Unlimited for one year - which means the $200+ in page reads I've gotten consistently for the past 3 months will disappear in a few days.
I made 8K on Kindle last month and would have broken through 10K this month - and should have been able to continue that for the rest of the year with new releases. Without KU, my income will go from $300 a day to $100 a day (From $10K to $3K a month... so I'll actually probably lose much more than $50K over the next year.)
IF I'm really being kicked out, and I can't beg my way back in, I'll need to spend the next few months taking my books wide and doing tons of promotion to build up non-amazon streams to try and replace the KU income I'm losing.
I'd rather NOT do that, because it's a pain in the ass, and I've been a loud advocate of new authors going all in with KU. It sucks they're booting me out for a mistake that lasted two days (the book on Google Play was taken down immediately, by the way and they know it - so that's not the issue).
But I also understand they're a huge company dealing with tens of thousands of authors and employees probably all have to follow a strict rulebook. This is exactly why people say not to go all in with Amazon, and I get that (but I don't think you should limit your earnings today based on what theoretically could happen tomorrow).
This isn't a cautionary tale warning you against Amazon. I still seriously think new authors will see better results going all in with KU. Only a few authors make money wide, but it's harder and you really need to know what you're doing, have a big backlist, and have a platform of followers.
PS) What I think might have happened, is I had the book on Smashwords years ago, and unchecked all the options, and since they've added a Google Play option so it was automatically enrolled (or I just didn't worry about that at the time..., not entirely sure). I haven't been using Smashwords for the last few years, but I should have checked to make sure before putting the book in KU.

In this video I talk through the differences between instafreebie and bookfunnel - which I use to give away ARC copies (advanced readers copies) to get more book reviews. I also talk about using Amazon giveaways to give out copies during launch and boost sales rank.
EDIT: Amazon giveaways don't seem to work - they did briefly, it seems Amazon has already shut that down; I got 100 claimed copies and it moved my rank from 80K to 30K - not nearly as much as 100 actual sales.

FREE Training Course on Publishing Your First Book:
http://www.ebookpublishingschool.com
Derek Murphy is the bestselling author of several books including his new novel Shearwater. Derek has a wealth of experience in the publishing industry as a professional editor, cover designer, consultant, keynote speaker, and as a bestselling nonfiction and fiction author.
This is our second time interviewing Derek. In episode 37 we talked about how to make book covers that sell books.
This time we talk about book marketing strategies and how to use the book giveaways alongside Facebook ads to quickly build your e-mail list.
Derek also had some interesting things to say about the difference between marketing for nonfiction and marketing for fiction books.
FICTION VS. NONFICTION: HOW THE MARKETS ARE DIFFERENT
* Fiction readers tend to read 10x more books than nonfiction readers.
* Fiction readers are more loyal.
* It’s much easier to convince a fiction reader to buy more of your books. If they like your writing they will want more of that experience.
* The secret to making money in Kindle Unlimited is to keep your audience reading longer. The longer they read the more page reads you have and the more money you make.
* If you put a book out permafree and it gets a high rank, Derek has found that if you switch the book over to paid the rank tends to be sticky. He switched over one of his books from free to paid and it has been consistently ranking in the top 2,000 books of the Kindle store for over a month. He’s making about $2,000 a month with that book right now—a book that started as permafree. Not bad for a free book!
* Readers tend to get even more excited about fiction than nonfiction—your loyal fans will go out of their way to support you if you communicate with them and ask them for help.
* Writing fiction requires different skill sets than writing nonfiction.

This video is an introduction to designing book covers in Microsoft Word; and not just simple, basic, and totally unimpressive book covers - you can make a beautiful cover, even in a difficult genre like paranormal romance or dystopian (YA readers are more particular about their book cover design) The most amazing feature of MS Word is the automatic tool that strips out background. You don't have total flexibility, it can't compare with Photoshop, however you can do a lot of amazing things... make sure you learn about book cover design though - you are your own worst enemy if you just create covers that you like: your cover has to sell the book to strangers.

Microsoft Word
Microsoft Word is a word processor developed by Microsoft. It was first released in 1983 under the name Multi-Tool Word for Xenix systems. Subsequent versions were later written for several other platforms including IBM PCs running DOS (1983), Apple Macintosh running Mac OS (1985), AT&T Unix PC (1985), Atari ST (1988), OS/2 (1989), Microsoft Windows (1989) and SCO Unix (1994). Commercial versions of Word are licensed as a standalone product or as a component of Microsoft Office, Windows RT or the discontinued Microsoft Works suite. Microsoft Word Viewer and Office Online are Freeware editions of Word with limited features.
History
Origins and growth
In 1981, Microsoft hired Charles Simonyi, the primary developer of Bravo, the first GUI word processor, which was developed at Xerox PARC. Simonyi started work on a word processor called Multi-Tool Word and soon hired Richard Brodie, a former Xerox intern, who became the primary software engineer.
Microsoft announced Multi-Tool Word for Xenix and MS-DOS in 1983. Its name was soon simplified to Microsoft Word. Free demonstration copies of the application were bundled with the November 1983 issue of PC World, making it the first to be distributed on-disk with a magazine. That year Microsoft demonstrated Word running on Windows.

Amazon Kindle
The Amazon Kindle is a series of e-readers designed and marketed by Amazon.com. Amazon Kindle devices enable users to browse, buy, download and read e-books, newspapers, magazines and other digital media via wireless networking to the Kindle Store. The hardware platform, developed by Amazon subsidiary Lab126, began as a single device and now comprises a range of devices, including e-readers with E Ink electronic paper displays, and Android-based tablets with color LCD screens. All Kindle devices integrate with the Kindle Store to get content and as of November 2015, the Kindle Store has over four million e-books available in the US.
Naming and evolution
The Kindle name was devised by branding consultants Michael Cronan and Karin Hibma. Lab 126 tasked them to name the product, so Cronan and Hibma suggested Kindle, meaning to light a fire. They felt this was an apt metaphor for reading and intellectual excitement.
Kindle hardware has evolved from the original Kindle introduced in 2007 and the Kindle DX (with its larger screen) introduced in 2009. The range includes devices with a keyboard (Kindle Keyboard), devices with touch-sensitive high resolution and contrast screens (Kindle Paperwhite), a tablet with the Kindle app (Kindle Fire), and a low-priced model with touch-sensitive screen (Kindle).

SO they are going to kick ALL my books out of Kindle Unlimited for one year - which means the $200+ in page reads I've gotten consistently for the past 3 months will disappear in a few days.
I made 8K on Kindle last month and would have broken through 10K this month - and should have been able to continue that for the rest of the year with new releases. Without KU, my income will go from $300 a day to $100 a day (From $10K to $3K a month... so I'll actually probably lose much more than $50K over the next year.)
IF I'm really being kicked out, and I can't beg my way back in, I'll need to spend the next few months taking my books wide and doing tons of promotion to build up non-amazon streams to try and replace the KU income I'm losing.
I'd rather NOT do that, because it's a pain in the ass, and I've been a loud advocate of new authors going all in with KU. It sucks they're booting me out for a mistake that lasted two days (the book on Google Play was taken down immediately, by the way and they know it - so that's not the issue).
But I also understand they're a huge company dealing with tens of thousands of authors and employees probably all have to follow a strict rulebook. This is exactly why people say not to go all in with Amazon, and I get that (but I don't think you should limit your earnings today based on what theoretically could happen tomorrow).
This isn't a cautionary tale warning you against Amazon. I still seriously think new authors will see better results going all in with KU. Only a few authors make money wide, but it's harder and you really need to know what you're doing, have a big backlist, and have a platform of followers.
PS) What I think might have happened, is I had the book on Smashwords years ago, and unchecked all the options, and since they've added a Google Play option so it was automatically enrolled (or I just didn't worry about that at the time..., not entirely sure). I haven't been using Smashwords for the last few years, but I should have checked to make sure before putting the book in KU.

FREE Training Course on Publishing Your First Book:
http://www.ebookpublishingschool.com
Derek Murphy is the bestselling author of several books including his new novel Shearwater. Derek has a wealth of experience in the publishing industry as a professional editor, cover designer, consultant, keynote speaker, and as a bestselling nonfiction and fiction author.
This is our second time interviewing Derek. In episode 37 we talked about how to make book covers that sell books.
This time we talk about book marketing strategies and how to use the book giveaways alongside Facebook ads to quickly build your e-mail list.
Derek also had some interesting things to say about the difference between marketing for nonfiction and marketing for fiction books.
FICTION VS. NONFICTION: HOW THE MARKETS ARE DIFFERENT
* Fiction readers tend to read 10x more books than nonfiction readers.
* Fiction readers are more loyal.
* It’s much easier to convince a fiction reader to buy more of your books. If they like your writing they will want more of that experience.
* The secret to making money in Kindle Unlimited is to keep your audience reading longer. The longer they read the more page reads you have and the more money you make.
* If you put a book out permafree and it gets a high rank, Derek has found that if you switch the book over to paid the rank tends to be sticky. He switched over one of his books from free to paid and it has been consistently ranking in the top 2,000 books of the Kindle store for over a month. He’s making about $2,000 a month with that book right now—a book that started as permafree. Not bad for a free book!
* Readers tend to get even more excited about fiction than nonfiction—your loyal fans will go out of their way to support you if you communicate with them and ask them for help.
* Writing fiction requires different skill sets than writing nonfiction.

This video is an introduction to designing book covers in Microsoft Word; and not just simple, basic, and totally unimpressive book covers - you can make a beautiful cover, even in a difficult genre like paranormal romance or dystopian (YA readers are more particular about their book cover design) The most amazing feature of MS Word is the automatic tool that strips out background. You don't have total flexibility, it can't compare with Photoshop, however you can do a lot of amazing things... make sure you learn about book cover design though - you are your own worst enemy if you just create covers that you like: your cover has to sell the book to strangers.

I had one old book in my KDP account I thought wasn't on any other platform, so I put it in KDP Select.

SO they are going to kick ALL my books out of Kindle Unlimited for one year - which means the $200+ in page reads I've gotten consistently for the past 3 months will disappear in a few days.
I made 8K on Kindle last month and would have broken through 10K this month - and should have been able to continue that for the rest of the year with new releases. Without KU, my income will go from $300 a day to $100 a day (From $10K to $3K a month... so I'll actually probably lose much more than $50K over the next year.)
IF I'm really being kicked out, and I can't beg my way back in, I'll need to spend the next few months taking my books wide and doing tons of promotion to build up non-amazon streams to try and replace the KU income I'm losing.
I'd rather NOT do that, because it's a pain in the ass, and I've been a loud advocate of new authors going all in with KU. It sucks they're booting me out for a mistake that lasted two days (the book on Google Play was taken down immediately, by the way and they know it - so that's not the issue).
But I also understand they're a huge company dealing with tens of thousands of authors and employees probably all have to follow a strict rulebook.

In this video I talk through the differences between instafreebie and bookfunnel - which I use to give away ARC copies (advanced readers copies) to get more book reviews. I also talk about using Amazon giveaways to give out copies during launch and boost sales rank.

FREE Training Course on Publishing Your First Book:
http://www.ebookpublishingschool.com
Derek Murphy is the bestselling author of several books including his new novel Shearwater. Derek has a wealth of experience in the publishing industry as a professional editor, cover designer, consultant, keynote speaker, and as a bestselling nonfiction and fiction author.
This is our second time interviewing Derek. In episode 37 we talked about how to make book covers that sell books.
This time we talk about book marketing strategies and how to use the book giveaways alongside Facebook ads to quickly build your e-mail list.
Derek also had some interesting things to say about the difference between marketing for nonfiction and marketing for fiction books.
FICTION VS. NONFICTION: HOW THE MARKETS ARE DIFFERENT
* Fiction readers tend to read 10x more books than nonfiction readers.
* Fiction readers are more loyal.
* It’s much easier to convince a fiction reader to buy more of your books. If they like your writing they will want more of that experience.
* The secret to making money in Kindle Unlimited is to keep your audience reading longer. The longer they read the more page reads you have and the more money you make.
* If you put a book out permafree and it gets a high rank, Derek has found that if you switch the book over to paid the rank tends to be sticky. He switched over one of his books from free to paid and it has been consistently ranking in the top 2,000 books of the Kindle store for over a month. He’s making about $2,000 a month with that book right now—a book that started as permafree. Not bad for a free book!
* Readers tend to get even more excited about fiction than nonfiction—your loyal fans will go out of their way to support you if you communicate with them and ask them for help.
* Writing fiction requires different skill sets than writing nonfiction.

This video is an introduction to designing book covers in Microsoft Word; and not just simple, basic, and totally unimpressive book covers - you can make a beautiful cover, even in a difficult genre like paranormal romance or dystopian (YA readers are more particular about their book cover design) The most amazing feature of MS Word is the automatic tool that strips out background. You don't have total flexibility, it can't compare with Photoshop, however you can do a lot of amazing things... make sure you learn about book cover design though - you are your own worst enemy if you just create covers that you like: your cover has to sell the book to strangers.
