Find the best Zon categories for your book. Just enter your book's ASIN/ISBN-10 number, and you'll see your book's information. Plus, a list of the current categories for your book.
You can easily find categories listed by other books in your category. This will help you decide better categories for your book - especially now that Zon only allows three categories.
We even provide detailed instructions on how to use the category information. You just paste the categories into a spreadsheet, and then figure out your best three categories, based on other books in a category.
Then just email the Zon KDP support and ask them to change/add those new categories. We even provide the category names in the proper format.
Will better categories help your book? We think so!

A Universal Book Link (UBL) sends you to your book's Zon store. It's based on the geographical location of the visitor. You can use them all sorts of places - in your books, on your author web site, in your mailings, anywhere.
And they are so easy to make! Just add your book's ASIN/ISBN-10 number to the BKLNK URL. Easy peasy!
Here's an example of a BKLNK UBL:
https://www.bklnk.com/B0CKD5712F
(that's Book 1 of our new 'RV Vigilante' series) . That's all you need to do! Click the link to see what happens: a new browser tab will open with info about our book, and then you'll see the book page after a short delay.Click the button below to see how easy it is to build your free UBLs - plus build a QR code for your UBL. Quick and easy! No signup required.
And, just like the rest of the BKLNK site - it's all free! No charge! Gratis! (Although we do accept donations to help with hosting costs - and our Jelly Belly habit.)

A BKLNK UBL can also include your Zon affiliate code, if you wish. It's optional, but free (like the rest of this place).
When you sign up, you can add your Zon affiliate codes for the various Zon country stores. Your UBLs will then use the proper affiliate code for the country of the person that uses your UBL Affiliate link.
You get a bit of extra revenue on a click/purchase. (Plus, the required 'Zon Displaimer' is always shown on the screen when the link is used.) That extra revenue is not a huge amount, but we use affiliate links for our own UBL's for our Jelly Belly fix (cherry or lime, if you are interested).
It's easy to set up, just sign up for free as an Zon affiliate for the country stores. And our UBL will show the required Affiliate message on the screen before your book page is shown. You'll also get a quick count of when your UBLs are used.
Signing up is quick and easy - and free! Get your Zon Affiliate program set up (we tell you how), then add your Zon Affiliate codes to your free account.
Get started with BKLNK UBLs and your Zon Affiliate Codes!
