Building a Book Series Brand
A great series name is more than a label — it's a brand. Think of "A Song of Ice and Fire," "The Hunger Games," or "Harry Potter." These series names carry instant recognition and evoke the entire world of the story. Your series name should do the same.
Series are the backbone of self-publishing income. Amazon's algorithm rewards series because readers who buy Book 1 often buy all remaining books — dramatically increasing your lifetime customer value. A compelling series name is the glue that holds your multi-book brand together.

Why Series Outperform Standalones on Amazon
📈 Read-Through Revenue
If your Book 1 sells for $2.99 and you have 5 books in the series with 60% read-through, each Book 1 sale is actually worth ~$9 in total revenue. Standalones cap at one purchase.
🔍 Amazon Algorithm Boost
Series get "also bought" recommendations to each other. When a reader buys Book 3, Amazon shows Books 1-2 and 4-5. This self-reinforcing loop compounds your visibility.
💰 Promotional Power
You can run Book 1 as a permanent $0.99 or free "loss leader" to hook readers, knowing that read-through to Books 2-5 at full price generates profit.
📚 Kindle Unlimited Advantage
KU readers who love Book 1 will binge the entire series, generating page read revenue on every book. Series authors regularly earn 5-10x more in KU than standalone authors.
Series Naming Checklist
- Is it memorable? Can readers recommend it to friends by name?
- Is it searchable? Google and Amazon should return your series, not a common phrase
- Does it work visually? How does it look on a book spine and cover?
- Is it scalable? Will it still work if you write 10+ books in the series?
- Does it hint at the genre? "Blood Oath Chronicles" screams dark fantasy; "Sunset Cove Romance" signals beach reads
- Is the domain available? Check if yourseries.com is open for future marketing

Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I write a book series?
Series outsell standalone books by 3-5x on average. Once a reader finishes book one and enjoys it, they're likely to buy every subsequent book. Series create built-in demand, make marketing easier, and compound your backlist sales. Many self-published six-figure authors build their income on series.
How many books should be in a series?
For fiction, 3-7 books is the sweet spot. Trilogies are classic. For non-fiction, 3-5 books work well. Romance readers love longer series (5-10+ books). The key is planning your story arc — know the endpoint before you start book one.
Should the series name appear on every book cover?
Yes! Always include the series name on the cover, spine, and in the subtitle on Amazon. This helps readers identify your books as a series and buy them in order. Format: "Book Title (Series Name Book #1)" in your Amazon listing.
