Tag Archives: Murder Now and Then by Diana Jackson

I was reading about AI one day and, just as a matter of interest, I clicked on Gemini for the first time (on purpose ~ I’ve done it a few times by accident!) to see what Key words it might come up with for one of my books:

For MURDER Now and Then, Gemini writes:

“To optimize the Amazon KDP search visibility for MURDER, Now and Then by Diana Jackson, you should use descriptive, multi-word long-tail phrases. Amazon allows 7 backend keyword slots (up to 50 characters each). [1]

Amazon Keyword Strategy Tips

• Do not repeat words that are already in your title (Murder, Now, Then) or author name (Diana Jackson), as Amazon’s algorithm automatically indexes those.
• Avoid punctuation like commas or semicolons in your backend slots; simply separate the words with spaces to maximize character counts.
• Combine terms into long strings to fill out each of the 7 slots (e.g., Slot 1: dual timeline cold case interwoven past present).”

WOW, I thought! There’s even a summary for Amazon’s strategy.

What next? On my next post I’ll explore the actual meta data on KDP for this book currently, and how I might update it.
