monthly active users for Google AI Overviews
Google reported this figure in June 2026 while describing how people are increasingly turning to generative AI tools to find and understand information.

Why this matters now
Search is becoming a conversation.
Readers no longer have to type short keywords and open ten tabs. They can ask a full question, describe exactly what they want and ask an AI system to help them choose.
The risk for older author websites
Many author websites were built before AI-assisted search became a major discovery surface.
If the book, genre, audience, proof, preview and next action are unclear or scattered, AI systems have less useful public information to work with. That can mean missed discovery—and missed sales opportunities—when a reader is actively looking for something to read.

The early-mover opportunity
01 • OWN THE STORY
02 • BUILD AUTHORITY
03 • GET IN EARLY
Build the signals now, before this becomes normal author marketing.
Most authors are still focused mainly on retailer pages, social posts and occasional ads. Those channels matter—but an owned, AI-readable destination gives all of that attention somewhere useful to land and compound.
Stop letting Amazon and social profiles explain your book for you.
Create one page that clearly explains what the book is, who it is for, why it is different and what the reader should do next.
Give Google and AI consistent public signals.
Connect the author, book, images, official profiles, reviews, live websites and relevant proof instead of leaving the information fragmented.
Start building before AI-first author marketing becomes crowded.
Early adopters can build pages, links, case studies, image visibility and entity clarity now rather than trying to catch up later.
What authors are actually asking
How to market my book—and how to get more book sales on Amazon.
The answer is not “make more random posts.” Build a path that turns attention into interest before you ask for the sale.
Search intent: “how to market my book”
Build one destination, then send every channel toward it.
Your social posts, interviews, ads, Google results and AI mentions should reinforce the same book story instead of sending readers in different directions.
- Explain the book in plain language.
- Let readers preview a controlled sample.
- Show the author and real proof.
- Give clear buy, follow and email-list actions.
- Make the page useful to Google, Google Images and AI-assisted search.
Search intent: “how to get more book sales on Amazon”
Create desire before the reader reaches Amazon.
Amazon is excellent at completing a purchase when someone already wants the book. Your marketing has to create that desire first.
- Warm the reader with a strong preview.
- Make the book's promise and audience obvious.
- Build trust with reviews and author identity.
- Send interested readers to the correct Amazon listing.
- Keep a pathway to follow the author for future books.

Simple answers
Common questions.
Will this guarantee my book is recommended by ChatGPT, Gemini or Google?
No. No company can guarantee what an independent search engine or AI system will recommend. KRONATRIX improves the public information, technical accessibility, proof and reader journey those systems can use.
Can this increase my book sales?
It can improve the journey between discovery and purchase by helping readers understand and preview the book before clicking to buy. Actual sales still depend on the book, audience, traffic, offer, reviews and other factors.
Why is getting in early useful?
Because you can start building pages, links, images, reviews, case studies and a consistent author identity before AI-first discovery becomes standard author marketing. That is an opportunity, not a guaranteed ranking advantage.
Are the £500 website packages monthly?
No. Both standard website packages are £500 one-time, with no monthly KRONATRIX hosting fee for the standard setup.
