Podcast Summary – Episode 50: “Keywords and the Mysterious A10 Algorithm”

In this milestone 50th episode of Three Lesbians and a Pen, hosts Kimberly Todd, KC Luck, and Jamey Moody celebrate their podcast’s longevity with laughs, birthday wishes, and plenty of “hootie hoos.” Before diving into the main topic, they chat about National Sandwich Day, Halloween fun, sports blackouts, and exciting new book releases—Jamey’s Wishes Don’t Come True (Nov. 17) and KC’s holiday novella Everybody Needs a Hero at Christmas.

The main discussion centers on Amazon keywords and the updated “A10” algorithm, exploring how recent changes affect visibility and sales. The trio breaks down how Amazon now rewards outside traffic (from newsletters, Facebook, BookBub, etc.) more than internal ads, emphasizing the importance of consistent reader engagement, accurate metadata, and series read-throughs. They swap tips for effective keyword research using Publisher Rocket, reverse ASIN lookups, and matching real reader search language. They also note that strong, relevant titles and categories—like lesbian romance or sapphic fiction—still perform best.

Listeners’ texts and emails highlight favorite keywords (like “ice queen” and “sapphic thriller”) and share fun notes about Godzilla Day. The hosts close by teasing next week’s topic—pen names—and pose a listener question: Would you follow an author into a completely different genre under the same name, or prefer they use a new pen name?

A fun, informative episode mixing insightful indie publishing advice with the group’s trademark humor and camaraderie.
