Creating a seller account on Amazon is relatively straightforward. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you get started:

1. Visit Amazon Seller Central:

3. Choose Account Type:

   • Amazon offers two types of seller accounts: Individual and Professional.
     • Individual: Suitable for sellers with fewer products to list. You'll be charged per item sold, and there's no monthly subscription fee.

4. Enter Your Information:

   • Fill in your email address and create a password for your Amazon seller account.
