Creating E-books

Ebooks can be just a few pages long or as as many as a novel. The size depends on the topic and purpose of your ebook. One difference between ebooks and offline manuscripts is your targeted audience can be reached at far less expense. It is also possible to reach your audience without a "middle man". Look at ebooks on your topic to see what your competition is.

IDEAS: What to write about? The possibilities are endless. However, it is usually best to write about something you care about. This could be a topic related to your job. Possible topics could be; keeping your job in a tight market or how to go to school and work at the same time. You can also write about a hobby or personal nature. Do you have a child with a learning disability? Do you love to golf and feel you have found a new way to lower your score? Literally the world is your oyster on the web.

RESEARCH: Ok, you have a topic you are interested in, but is anyone else? Writing a ebook is not enough. You have to have willing buying public. The group you sell to doesn't have to be large. For example, selling a ebook to 5,000 people at $5.00 apiece results in $25,000. One of the ways to check possible interest is to check forums and newsgroups on your topic.
