Adding A+ Content
Now that Amazon doesn’t allow the ‘Look Inside’ feature for new low-content uploads, you may want to add extra content yourself. It’s more work, but you can add extra images and text using their templates. Here’s how it’s done.
Start by clicking the ‘Marketing’ link at the top of your KDP dashboard. On the next page, scroll down to the A+ Content section and choose your marketplace:
You will need to add the content for each marketplace you want it to show up, as well as for any hardback/softcover editions.
On the next page, click ‘Start creating A+ content’:
Give it an easily identifiable name and begin adding your modules:
Choose the one(s) you want to use and make sure you have an image of the correct size already created. Adding any text appears to be optional:
Keep adding more modules if you want:
Click ‘Next: Apply ASINs’:
And that’s it. It does take a while, but at least you can control what you want potential customers to see. It’s great for showcasing your book interiors for content other than plain notebooks.
Thanks for your post, Sophie. I’ve never dabbled with a Bullet Journal. Does it take up a lot of time to design it?

They can take hours if you design intracate spreads and use paints and colours or even scrapbook designs. But my spreads are nice and simple and quick. I lose interest otherwise!
Such a good warning, thanks for highlighting. I’m so pleased you got sorted!
I do understand to an extent, but as a consumer I still like to see inside any notebook – plain or otherwise. I imagine this well have an impact on sales for creators.
I agree, but at least this only applies to new uploads, old ones should still have the look inside feature., so creators don’t have to go through potentially hundreds of books to add A+ content.
