Increasing Book Sales With KDP Rocket

*Updated 01/25/2025

This article is about how to increase book sales with Publisher Rocket. As a note, “Publisher Rocket” is formerly “KDP Rocket”. It was designed by Dave Chesson, This is a Publisher Rocket review that’s straightforward and describes the benefits of the program. To continue, Publisher Rocket is a program that is not a monthly subscription (at the time of this writing) that allows you to get inside knowledge on keywords so that you can have a greater chance of your books being found on Amazon by readers. You’re probably wondering why this is so important.

Keywords are important if you want to maximize your ability to sell books because they help people find your work. For instance, if you’re writing a book about a kingdom at war, it would be great to know that 1 million people a month through Amazon search the keywords “bloody kings killing.” Would you ever have thought to make that phrase part of your keywords? Maybe not.

On top of this, Publisher Rocket tells you who your competition is, how many books they’ve sold and how much money your keywords generate in relation to book sales. You’re wondering now, does it work? Many authors have said it does. Personally, I do not know, but this why I brought it yesterday for $97. There was a hiccup and I never received my pass key (license), but I emailed Dave Chesson, the creator who is a very accessible guy and who apologized, and he sent me my key.

So, I am doing an experiment. I know that shorter ebooks tend to do better than longer ebooks. I also have gathered data from Publisher Rocket concerning book sales and competition within a certain genre. I am writing a 20,000-word novella using this information to see if it outperforms my other books. However, there are other variables to consider:

1. Whether the story is appealing to the market
2. Whether the book cover is intriguing
3. Whether the marketing was sufficient
4. And other things I can’t think of

As noted, Publisher Rocket is excellent for researching and gathering keywords for your books, but it’s also great for article or website optimization or SEO. I’ve used this program to research keywords to include in my articles and on pages of my website. This is how you were able to find my site and this article. This program has given me the tools to increase the number of books I sell, along with the number of visitors to my website.

Publisher Rocket promises to give you insight on keywords and competition, and it does. It provides an easy-to-use platform allows you to download your search results. It is an excellent, easy-to-use tool that will help you research and develop your book and your articles, blogs or website if you use it wisely. Doing so will also make your book easily findable on Google, Bing or other search engines. On a scale of 0 — 10, I give KDP Rocket a 10/10.
