Be findable
Book Metadata Optimization
Categories, keywords, descriptions and contributor data tuned so your book turns up when readers in your genre search — the cheapest marketing there is.
Metadata is the invisible half of a book listing and the highest-leverage thing most authors never touch. Correct categories and keywords can move a title from unfindable to steadily selling without a penny of ad spend.
What we optimise
- Category placement based on where comparable titles actually rank
- Keyword research grounded in real search behaviour
- Description formatting and hook structure
- Series linking so a reader who finishes book one finds book two
- Contributor and author profile consistency across retailers
- Territory and language metadata
Ongoing, not one-off
Categories get restructured and competitors move. We review placement periodically and adjust, rather than optimising once at launch and walking away.
What’s included
Real search data
Keywords chosen from actual reader search behaviour in your category.
Series linking
Books connected so finishing one leads directly to buying the next.
Reviewed over time
