Keywords
I know there are certain words that Amazon wants you to avoid, like 'book' 'free' and 'amazon' as keywords, and there are others. My quandry is, I am writing a parenting book and speaking of device use, many parents want their kids to go 'screen free' and so that could be a great keyword phrase for me. What would you do, when the actual subject has 'free' in it?

@Yna Davis I think I have found one. I put job postings on a site and didn't get much of a response, plus, the ones I searched through, really didn't sound like I wanted them to. But now I think I found one on Voices123.

@Chris Pedersen it varies. If you pay per finished hour (PFH) it can be anywhere between 200 and 600 per hour, from what I have seen.

Ranking timeline
Does Amazon pay attention to your fist 2 weeks, or your first month of sales, to give you an initial ranking?

On KDP in the 7 slots, should you put phrases, or lists of individual words, or some of both?

Cover Design Feedback Needed
I am going to display 4 completely different covers. Please provide whatever feedback you feel like… Good, bad, ugly. Honestly, I love and hate elements from each cover. I promise, you are not going to hurt my feelings. Please be honest and raw. Thanks

I hate to say what I'm about to say, but people told me this as well about my book cover. Your main title tells nothing about what the book is about. I wouldn't waste my time looking at the subtitle. So if you want people to run across your book and buy it, I'd change the title. Sorry! Also, for down the road when your cover is more settled, I highly recommend using pickfu.com to ask opinions of your target audience. It does cost, but I found the feedback to be absolutely worth the cost. You want feedback ultimately from your target audience, not us. :)

@Roger Magalhaes it is very true that you can't please everyone.
