Selling books has never been easier due to the existence of ebooks. Are you an aspiring author who’s yet to make an income with your writings? Take advantage of these methods I just gave and experience the power of words and letters as they revolutionize the way you live.

Every day, more and more writers and publishers are opting to choose digital publishing over traditional publishing because:

It has very low production costs – By choosing to write within the digital platform, time is almost only your needed investment. Real paper, real cardboard is completely off the production list, so there’s no need to invest in them.

It has a wider reach and higher marketing potential – Promoting digital reading materials is a lot easier, again, thanks to the internet. By paying very small amounts for social media or search engine promotion, your writings can be easily found and bought.

It has lesser restrictions – In order to get your books published on popular publishing companies, your creation needs to undergo a lot of revisions and curating processes so they can fit into some “standards and guidelines.” With digital publishing, you can bypass this easily.

Also, there are solid reasons why you should choose to publish your writings as an ebook, instead of as a paper book.

Manufacturing a product without knowing first if people would want to buy it would be unwise, if not outright foolish. Before you plan to sell your ebook, let alone start to create one, you have to ask first…

What makes an ebook highly salable?

As experts may put it, a book, whether it has on “e” on it or not, must really have the following traits:

A topic that addresses a reader’s needs – To get entertained, to learn, to solve problems: these are the most common reasons why people read books. Before choosing a topic for your planned ebook, you have to ask yourself, “Is the main subject that my book talks about able to address a certain reader’s needs?”

An expert quality set of writings – Why do most writings fail to get attention and love from readers? “Because the writer doesn’t know what he or she is talking about,” that would be the best answer. If you can’t create paragraphs, pages, and chapters that can reach “expert level,” don’t expect to make good sales with your ebooks.

Does this mean you have to be really intelligent and have spent many years in academics so you can make a high-quality ebook? No. The best way to reach that expert level thing is this: write about something that you’re very passionate about, so you can lean about what to write quickly and seamlessly.

A compelling title, cover, and blurb – Yes, the old adage that goes, “A book must not be judged by its cover” is still among the most important of all universal truths. But here’s another indisputable truth: no book lover, no matter how young or old would bother picking your book and checking it out if your cover, as well as that short description on its back (the blurb), is not compelling enough.

So to increase your ebook’s appeal, you have to somehow, make it physically attractive on the outside.

Now, let’s talk about some tips that are more suited for the question that goes…

Why does an ebook fail to make sales?

The following would be the most likely reasons:

It’s too short – Isn’t quality better than quantity? The latter word is of course, more important than the former. But here’s the thing, making a very short ebook would also spell laziness, amateurism, and non-professionalism.

Most of the “short-type” ebooks nowadays fall within the 4000-6000 word count range. Which makes them a bit unattractive for those who want to engage in some serious reading. An ebook that reaches the 10,000-word count would be ideal, although still for the short-type ones.

Its topic is very generic – Why buy an ebook if its contents can be easily found in blogs that flock to the web? This would be a good question for an aspiring ebook publisher. During your initial brainstorming stages, do your very best to pick a topic that’s not well-covered yet by many writers, or those topics that you’re sure you can provide a better writing of, compared to your competitors.

It’s not proofread and edited well – Because most ebooks are singlehandedly written and published by lone writers, the process of editing and proofreading them is also done by one person alone. Truth to be told, having a flawless book in terms of spelling and grammar is a very hard thing to accomplish. That’s why a great number of ebooks are shamefully bad compared to printed books. To get around to this problem, use advanced proofreading tools like Grammarly, it can greatly improve your writing to unimaginably high levels!

Digital books might be the ultimate form of reading materials in the near future. Invest some time in reading them, making them, and selling them. Who knows? It might just be the best source of income you can ever tap into!

There are sites where you can make ebooks for a client. For me, I've already made around 5 ebooks already at Yonipp.com for which I've been paid 100 to 300 dollars each. You can just make them with Microsoft Word, though there are also other better software for it. You can also make your own ebook and sell them at Amazon and other similar sites.

Ebooks have a wider coverage of audience or readers, so that scope helps the author maximize profit. It keeps the writer from chasing pirates up and down. As much as the book has quality content and serves readers urge, then the author will find it lucrative for all his stress. That's probably one of the advantages of the internet.
