Amazon pays 35% of your listed retail price for content that is sold through their Kindle Store. Some publishers were up in arms at this small amount. And it is tough at times to see Amazon keep 65% of the profits.
 
But there are absolutely no overhead cost associated with publishing on the Kindle. No web hosting. No printing. No shipping. And it cost nothing to use Amazon's services.

Obvioulsy, you can only publish book and other documents for the Kindle where you are the copyright holder.
 
You can also publshing documents where the copyright has expired. Content for the Amazon Kindle is exclusively avaialble in the United States and the copyright has expired for ALL books in the U.S. publshed before January 1, 1923.
 
It is certainly possible to publish for the Kindle and promote you business, but avoid "spammy" publications with links to your website in the actual document or in the Amazon listing. These will be reported and delist after a period of time.
 
You publish for Kindle through Digital Text Platform (DTP), if you have an Amazon account, you already have a DTP account, just sign in and publish.  But DTP is only available in United State, because you "must complete the Publisher Information and Billing Information sections in order to publish content on the Kindle Store." This include a US mailing address, and tax informations, that is a Social Security Number (SSN), Taxpayer ID Number (TIN), or Employer Identification Number (EIN).
