Question about unenrolling from KDP Select
Hey everyone, I have a question I hope someone can answer based on personal experience.
Been on KDP for almost a year now. I have a few books I’ve published and make a decent amount of sales a month organically without ads or any marketing efforts. All of my books have a kindle, paperback and hardcover format. Majority of my sales are from print formats.
In efforts to branch out my books in digital format beyond KDP, I’ve ended KDP Select enrollment for all books. But ever since, my orders have come to a standstill. No orders since KDP Select ended.
Someone told me that enrolling in KDP Select “boosts” visibility for your book(s) including for the print versions and that unenrolling would result in the opposite effect (no more/reduced visibility).
To me that doesn’t make much sense since I figured Kindle is its own thing apart from the printed versions. But the fact that everything just “froze” within enrollment ending, it’s left me doubting. Maybe coincidence. But wanted to ask either way. Thank you in advance to anyone who could answer my question :)
