Amazon adds Related Content feature for KDP series authors

Amazon says it is now supporting book series-related content on Amazon.com series detail pages for Kindle Direct Publishing authors.

Any related book you add or have added to your series in KDP, will appear in a Related Content section at the bottom of your series detail page. Amazon says this new feature means readers can easily see any related sequels, novellas, boxed sets, and more in one place along with the main titles in a series.

If you have already added related content to your KDP series, it will now automatically appear on the associated series detail page.

In November 2020, Amazon moved to enable authors to publish and update ebook and paperback series details pages automatically through Kindle Direct Publishing.

An Amazon series page is a product detail page that shows an overview of your series details and gives readers the opportunity to buy and read all of the books in your series. Series pages are available on desktop computers and in mobile web browsers.

Authors can create a new series, view and organize a series, and edit an existing series to control how it appears to readers

Series pages are available on Amazon.com (US), Amazon.co.uk (UK) and Amazon.de (Germany) but not all features are available in the UK and Germany. Series that contain paperback and pre-order books are available on Amazon.com, but not on Amazon.co.uk and Amazon.de.

To create a series page, go to the Bookshelf in your KDP account, click on Create series, enter the details and click on Submit updates.
