Then in the next step, I\u2019ll show you how to use your list to find the right combination of words, so you create keyword phrases that will help your book get discovered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-four-fiction-keyword-categories\">Four Fiction Keyword Categories:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Time Period and Settings<\/li><li>Character Types or Roles<\/li><li>Plot Themes or Special Events<\/li><li>Style and Tone of Your Genre<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s look at each&nbsp;in detail:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-time-period-settings\">Time Period & Settings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The location and time period says a lot about your story and what your reader can expect. Examples are the Victorian era, Medieval Times, Jurassic, Industrial Age, United States Bicentennial, modern, and near future. With each of these, you could probably envision a little bit about the story just by knowing when the story takes place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While time periods describe a point in time, settings can be environmental or location. Sometimes a setting can have a perceived time period associated with it. If I say<em>&nbsp;the Wild West<\/em>, you probably think of the 1800s cowboys out West, right? If I say&nbsp;<em>the Caribbean<\/em>, there\u2019s a good chance you think of the pirates in the 1660s. So, just understand that the way you describe a setting can have a perceived time period associated with it. This could be things like Western, prairie, jungle, battlefields, encampments, prison, or sanitarium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some&nbsp;examples of this on book covers:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Book-Covers-for-settings.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11522\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Book-Covers-for-settings.jpg 700w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Book-Covers-for-settings-300x107.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"blue-box\"><strong>ACTION<\/strong>: Come up with a list of words that describe the setting or settings in your story. Then think of ways to describe the time&nbsp;period. Dive deeper to think about a combination of the two. Is there a word for the setting that also dictates the time&nbsp;period?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-character-types-and-roles\">Character Types and Roles<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The type or role of a character can have a big impact on your story. Character types like alpha male, mutant, zombie, survivalist, Lycan, single mother, and serial killer each paint a unique story. We can even get more granular than that. A male character that has magical powers can be called a wizard, mage, magician, sorcerer, warlock, necromancer, and more. But each of those is different in their power, role, or background.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Books-3.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12298\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Books-3.png 700w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Books-3-300x107.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"blue-box\"><strong>ACTION<\/strong>: Think about your characters and the different ways to describe who they are that helps tell the remarkable story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8212;&gt;At this point, you could just start combining words or phrases to create your 7 keywords upon uploading your book.

In history, it could be a story centered around the American Civil War or your character's adventure occur during the Great Depression. An occurrence or action could be something like a mass human extermination due to a disease or a harrowing tale of survival from a plane crash.

But remember, some shoppers don\u2019t exactly know what they want or what a sub-genre title is.

As I narrowed further into &#8220;space marines,&#8221; I discovered that there are a significant number of readers who want a story about space marines fighting ant hive-like hordes of aliens (think <em>Starship Troopers<\/em>&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;or at least that\u2019s the kind of&nbsp;story these sci-fi fans enjoy and are looking for).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-fantasy-keywords-character-role-or-type-example\">Fantasy Keywords&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;Character Role or Type Example<\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image shadow\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Fantasy-Character-Type.png\" alt=\"Fantasy Character Type\" class=\"wp-image-11441\" width=\"769\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Fantasy-Character-Type.png 864w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Fantasy-Character-Type-300x76.png 300w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Fantasy-Character-Type-768x195.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 864px) 100vw, 864px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<center>Table created using <a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/click\/PublisherRocket?utm_source=kindlepreneur.com&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=Kindle%20Keyword%20Strategy%20For%20Fiction%20Authors\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Publisher Rocket<\/a><\/center>\n\n\n\n<p>This example shows the power of a single word and its popularity vs. competitiveness. Using six different synonyms for a man who performs magic, you can see where some opportunities lie. As you can see \u201cmage\u201d seems to offer the most optimal opportunities. Now, please understand that there are vast differences between a warlock and a magician, and this isn\u2019t to say you should choose one when it doesn't fit your book. But when you have some that are very close like \u201cwizard\u201d and \u201cmage,\u201d your book will have more opportunity to be discovered by going with the keyword \u201cmage.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-romance-keywords-genre-tone-time-setting\">Romance Keywords&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;Genre Tone + Time Setting<\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image shadow\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Romance-Types-and-Stories.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11438\" width=\"769\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Romance-Types-and-Stories.png 768w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Romance-Types-and-Stories-300x71.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<center>Table created using <a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/click\/PublisherRocket?utm_source=kindlepreneur.com&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=Kindle%20Keyword%20Strategy%20For%20Fiction%20Authors\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Publisher Rocket<\/a><\/center>\n\n\n\n<p>In this example, we see how adding the time period&nbsp;&#8220;Victorian&#8221; to the type of&nbsp;romance &#8220;second chance&#8221; not only reduced the competition greatly, but it actually&nbsp;shows authors earning more money&nbsp;as well. Although searches per month are lower, it's great to see that there are still a significant number of searches with much lower competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The example of &#8220;second chance romance with baby&#8221; shows a unique but important aspect to shopper mentality. In this case, there are many shoppers who start looking for the romance genre style &#8220;second chance romance&#8221; but then realize they want it to be family-related. At the last moment, these shoppers add the phrase &#8220;with baby&#8221; to find the storyline they are searching for. And yes, there are an estimated 795 shoppers per month typing that into Amazon. Remember, when we do searches on Amazon, we commonly neglect grammar or spelling and just let the search engine figure it out. Haha&#8230;gotta love data analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-romance-keywords-character-role-example\">Romance Keywords &#8211; Character Role Example<\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image shadow\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Romance-Character-Roles-and-Types.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11439\" width=\"769\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Romance-Character-Roles-and-Types.png 770w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Romance-Character-Roles-and-Types-300x62.png 300w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Romance-Character-Roles-and-Types-768x158.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<center>Table created using <a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/click\/PublisherRocket?utm_source=kindlepreneur.com&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=Kindle%20Keyword%20Strategy%20For%20Fiction%20Authors\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Publisher Rocket<\/a><\/center>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can see from the data above, trying to find terms representing a rich man role or a dominant role produced vastly&nbsp;different numbers. &#8220;Billionaire romance&#8221; seems to be the most popular, however, &#8220;millionaire romance&#8221; is still highly searched for with much less competition. The other options don't seem as promising considering their high competition or lack of searches (as you can see with &#8220;rich man romance&#8221;).<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n<section class=\"standard-cta testimonial nohover\" id=\"cta-block_60a2bab118239\">\r\n    <div class=\"cta-inner row\">\r\n                    <div class=\"cta-media col-md-4\">\r\n                                    <div class=\"cta-media-inner\">\r\n                    \r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/click\/keyword-course\" alt=\"Take the Course\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">                        \r\n                        \r\n                        \r\n                        <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/keywords-course-w-laptop.png\" alt=\"mailerlite course ad with laptop\" height=\"290\" width=\"512\">\r\n                        \r\n                        <\/a>                    <\/div>\r\n                            <\/div>\r\n        \r\n        <div class=\"cta-body col-md-8\" style=\"text-align:center;\">  \r\n                            <a class=\"cta-heading\" href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/click\/keyword-course\" alt=\"Take the Course\">\r\n                            <h3>Need Help with Your Keywords?<\/h3>\r\n                            <\/a>\r\n                        \r\n            <p>Take my full featured video course on how to select the best keywords and categories for your book.<\/p>\n            <a class=\"offer-button\" href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/click\/keyword-course\" alt=\"Take the Course\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">Take the Course<\/a>        <\/div>\r\n\r\n            <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\r\n\r\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-niches-are-so-important\">Why Niches Are So Important<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can see in the above examples, it's important to niche down so that you have less competition. But Dave, you might be asking, if I niche down, doesn't that mean fewer searches?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, you're right.&nbsp; The more niche you go, generally&nbsp;speaking, the fewer&nbsp;searches there usually are.&nbsp; But guess what?&nbsp; You also get:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Less competition<\/li><li>Higher conversion<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>I'm sure you can see why there is less competition.&nbsp; However, that last one is very important and I'll explain.&nbsp; Imagine someone who goes to Amazon and types in &#8220;Science Fiction.&#8221;&nbsp; Do you think they will find the exact type of&nbsp;fiction they are looking for and thus purchase off that search?&nbsp; Of course not!&nbsp; Most likely, &#8220;Science Fiction&#8221; is the beginning of their search and they keep changing their search term to be something more representative.&nbsp; And, as they niche down their term to something more descriptive of the type of&nbsp;Science Fiction they are looking for, they will get closer to what they are truly&nbsp;looking for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is an example to highlight exactly that with numbers &#8211; again, using Publisher Rocket:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Horror-Keywords.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12308\" width=\"769\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Horror-Keywords.png 2164w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Horror-Keywords-300x47.png 300w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Horror-Keywords-768x120.png 768w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Horror-Keywords-1024x160.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2164px) 100vw, 2164px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<center>Table created using <a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/click\/PublisherRocket?utm_source=kindlepreneur.com&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=Kindle%20Keyword%20Strategy%20For%20Fiction%20Authors\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Publisher Rocket<\/a><\/center>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can see from the table above, the <a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/broad-vs-niche-keywords\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">more niche<\/a> we made the term, the fewer searches occurred, but the conversion rate increased.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-math-to-fiction-sales\">The Math To Fiction Sales<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>So, why do the Amazon Searches Per Month numbers and Competition Score matter for our keywords?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Statistically speaking, <strong>if your book ranks at the top of the Amazon search results for a keyword phrase, 27% of everyone who types it in will click on your book.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If you rank #4, only 8% will click on it.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image shadow\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/correct-graphkp-1-1024x724.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20417\" width=\"769\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/correct-graphkp-1-1024x724.png 1024w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/correct-graphkp-1-300x212.png 300w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/correct-graphkp-1-768x543.png 768w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/correct-graphkp-1.png 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>And if you want your book to appear at the top of the Amazon search results and benefit from your keywords, you need high enough searches but low enough competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-proof-why-your-fiction-keywords-matter\">Proof Why Your Fiction Keywords Matter<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Here's an example to hit this point home:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s say 1,000 shoppers per month search for a keyword phrase on Amazon and your book ranks #1 on the results page. You can expect 270 shoppers per month to click on your book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s 270 new shoppers finding your book each month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if you rank #6, you can expect 60 shoppers to click on your book. Sixty is still pretty cool and can really help, however, 270 is a lot better&#8230;like almost 5x times better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, thanks to the steps above, you now know which keywords people are actually&nbsp;typing into Amazon, as well as how competitive they are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And just like that, we\u2019ve turned online <a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/book-marketing-101\/\">book marketing<\/a> into a science.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"sw-tweet-clear\"><\/div><a class=\"swp_CTT style1\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?text=Writing+is+the+art%2C+but+is+your+book+marketing+missing+the+science%3F+%23BookMarket&url=https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/kindle-keywords-fiction-author-strategy\/\" data-link=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?text=Writing+is+the+art%2C+but+is+your+book+marketing+missing+the+science%3F+%23BookMarket&url=https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/kindle-keywords-fiction-author-strategy\/\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"sw-click-to-tweet\"><span class=\"sw-ctt-text\">Writing is the art, but is your book marketing missing the science? #BookMarket<\/span><span class=\"sw-ctt-btn\">Click To Tweet<i class=\"sw swp_twitter_icon\"><\/i><\/span><\/span><\/a>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-so-can-fiction-books-use-keywords\">So, Can Fiction Books Use Keywords?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After reading this, I\u2019m sure you can now answer that question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Again keywords are not a silver bullet that will make a bad book become a bestseller.
