Resources · Josiah ·

So you’ve just received your final A+ Content from KDPChimp — great job!

Now it’s time to upload it to your Amazon KDP account so your beautiful new visuals appear on your Amazon sales page.

Don’t worry — it’s easy! Just follow the simple steps below.

Step 1: Go to Your KDP Dashboard

  1. Log in to your Amazon KDP account at kdp.amazon.com.
  2. At the top of the page, click on the “Marketing” tab.
  3. Scroll down until you see the box that says “A+ Content.”

Step 2: Choose Your Marketplace

Click the dropdown that says “Choose a marketplace.” Most people should select Amazon.com (for the US). Then click “Manage A+ Content.”

Choose Amazon.com, then click Manage A+ Content

Step 3: Create New A+ Content

Click the button that says “Start creating A+ content.”

Next, click “Create Basic A+.”

Click Create Basic A+

You’ll be asked to give it a name — you can call it something simple like “Book Title (US)”.

Step 4: Add Your First Module

Click “Add Module.”

Type a content name, then click Add Module

A list of module options will appear (like Standard Image Header with Text, Four Image with Text, etc.).

Tip: Type the module name into the Search box at the top to find it quickly.

Tip: In your KDPChimp project folder, you’ll find a text file that tells you exactly which module type to choose for each image.

Step 5: Upload the Images

  1. Click the image box (it says “Click to add image”).

Click the image box to add an image

  1. Click “Upload image” and upload the matching PNG file(s) from your KDPChimp project folder.

    • Some modules (like 4 Icons) have multiple image slots — upload one image into each.
    • Others (like Header or Show Interior) only have one image.

Click Upload image

Tip: Leave any headline or text boxes empty unless your text file says otherwise. If a white text box appears on top of your image, don’t worry — just leave it blank. It disappears automatically in the preview.

Step 6: Add Image Keywords (Alt Text)

When you add an image, there’s a small field underneath it called “Alt text” (sometimes called “Image Keywords”).

The Alt text field under the image

Copy the keywords from the text file provided and paste them there. If unique keywords are requested, add numbers at the end — for example:

  • apluscontent1
  • apluscontent2

These help with Amazon’s SEO (Search Engine Optimization).

Step 7: Add the Remaining Modules

Keep repeating the same process:

  • Choose the next module type (look in your text file)
  • Upload the next image
  • Paste the keywords

Continue until all modules are uploaded.

Step 8: Add Your ASIN

When you’re done adding all the modules, click “Next: Apply ASINs.”

Click Next: Apply ASINs

Then:

  1. Go to your book’s product page on Amazon.
  2. Scroll down to the “Product Details” section.
  3. Copy the ASIN (it’s a 10-digit code).
  4. Paste it into the “Search for ASINs” box, then choose your book from the results to apply it.

Paste your ASIN into the Search for ASINs box

Tip: If your book has more than one format — like Kindle, Paperback, or Hardcover — add each ASIN here. That way, your A+ Content appears on every version of your book.

Step 9: Review and Submit

Click “Next: Review & submit.”

Click Next: Review & submit

You can see how your A+ content looks on both desktop and mobile. If everything looks good, click “Submit for Approval.”

Amazon usually approves your content within 24–48 hours (sometimes much faster). KDP says to allow up to 7 days. Once approved, it’ll automatically appear on your product page!

Bonus Tip: Publishing in Other Countries

If you sell your book in more than one Amazon marketplace:

  1. Go back to the A+ Content Manager.
  2. Click “Switch Marketplace” (next to the marketplace name, under the page title).

The Switch Marketplace link in the A+ Content Manager

  1. Choose the next country (like UK or CA).
  2. Repeat the same steps to upload your A+ content again for the other marketplaces.

That’s It!

Your A+ Content is now live — and your Amazon listing looks professional and polished.
