Thank you, I just posted on your July monthly report asking fo more on keywords. Then found this video, but would till be interested in advertising keywords.

What do you mean by other's book title, do you mean a novel or any coloring book?

It would helpful if you took a novel (actual or imaginary) and filled in the seven slots so we could see what it looks like. Another site suggests the first three slots should be a phrase but the next four could be just words. Do you agree?

I used following keywords and do you think that this is keyword stuffing?
1-- Bold and easy coloring book
2- Food and snacks coloring book bold and easy
3- Food and snacks coloring book
4- Food and drinks coloring book
5- Food and snacks coloring book for adults
6- Food and snacks coloring book for kids

Random question: Do you copyright each of your coloring books? I was looking online and it costs 45 dollars to copyright a self-published book.

do you think what range of results number is good for ranking organically ??
should it always be under a thousand results or is it possible to go up to maybe 2 or 3 thousand results ?

Anne of Green Gables is in the public domain, if I make an anne of Green Gables themed colouring book is it OK to include that in keywords since it is public domain or is it still not allowed by Amazon?

Thank you for this video, keyword research is one of my biggest nemesis.

When filling up the backend keywords, i always use comma after each word. Is it okay?

For example, if I was filling the backend keywords, would it be wrong if i repeated a word i.e dinosaur kids joke, dinasour funny jokes?
