Question about long-tail keywords in subtitle
I have a book title that has a very relevant keyword in the main title with a subtitle that is not very relevant. To that I added a relevant long-tail keyword. My question: For the actual book cover, should I include that long-tail or just the title and subtitle?

@Julie Broad The book is aimed at people who already have awareness of anxious attachment or relationship anxiety.

@Kate Duncan I was going to have the title and subtitle on the cover but also have the long-tail keyword in the listing. I was going to leave "To Let Go of Overthinking and Relationship Anxiety!" off of the cover. Would Amazon quibble with that?
Do you have a publishing company?
As I continue the process of launching my book with Book Launchers, I received an email today suggesting I should consider opening a publishing company so the book looks even more professional. I do not really want to open another company....Having said that, here are some burning questions I have: 1 - How many of you HAVE a publishing company? 2 - What are the downside of NOT having one? 3 - Do you really think not having a publishing company would make you look not as professional? 4 - I completely understand the looking top-notch professional by having a publishing company "backing up" your book, but I do not want to deal with the paperwork. 5 - What else I do not know about this? Thanks so much for your input!

I formerly published three books as just me without a company/imprint. That's because I was doing my taxes for years as a sole proprietor without forming a LLC. More recently, I did form a LLC for my therapy business. My books that I intend to publish this year are related to mental health/self-help. So, I made a new KDP account with my LLC and will use my company name as the imprint name for all upcoming books. This makes taxes more complicated though potentially lower. Given how much cost and hassle are involved in making a formal LLC, I don't recommend that someone do that unless they are sure that their annual gross revenue is above something like US$80k. Below that amount, you add expense and headache without a lot of benefits.

Hello, everyone! I self-published three books around 2010 before I knew anything about publishing (other than how to upload a book to KDP). Combined, they make around $100/year. Now, I'm writing a book for the self-help space about anxious attachment. I've been a psychotherapist for 30 years and have a unique contribution to that niche. Favorite place to write: Thailand. My wife and I live part of the time in Thailand and part in the U.S. Unfortunately, we're currently kind of stuck in the states (long story). Hoping to get back to our home in Thailand as soon as possible.
Press Coverage
Newbie Question - Has anyone ever put out a press release for a book launch?

@Sarah Bean That's an interesting angle I hadn't thought about. Thanks!
