KDP Spy is designed to work on Amazon.com which is the US market. In order to get the extension to work properly, head to Amazon.com and enter in a search term into the Amazon search box. From here, click on search and this will bring up the results.

In this example, we searched for “Dog journal”. 

Once the results are being shown on Amazon, it is now time to use the KDP Spy extension.

From there, you can save your research, sort the columns by clicking on the headers, or use the keyword tab at the top to dig into keywords with actual search volume.
