Why Niche Research Is So Important
Amazon KDP is a great way to get your book published and into the hands of readers who are interested in your niche. But before you can publish your book, you need to do your research and figure out which niche is right for you.

There are a few different ways you can go about researching your book’s niche. First, you can look at Amazon’s categories and subcategories to get an idea of what genres are popular and what readers are looking for. You can also look at the Kindle Store’s Best Sellers list to see what books are currently selling well.
Another great way to research your book’s niche is to look at other books in your genre and see what topics they cover. This can give you some great ideas for topics to include in your own book.
Finally, you can also talk to people in your niche and get their opinion on what they would like to read. This can be a great way to get ideas for your book that you might not have thought of otherwise.
