You may think that you have to be a professional writer in order to write an eBook, but this isn’t true in today’s marketplace. An eBook doesn’t have to be written by a professional writer – just someone with enough information about a topic to make it valuable to consumers.
Why is this true when the offline publishing world demands a laundry list of credentials to one’s name? The simple fact of the matter is that eBooks are written for online consumers – a totally different beast from your Barnes and Noble crowd.
These people want you to talk to them in a casual, conversational tone. They don’t want to hear something that reads like a textbook from their school days. They also want it fast – and they scour the ‘net to find reputable sources they feel comfortable investing in.
When it comes to eBooks, as I learned in "Building an eBook Empire" , you don’t have to have a lot of expertise in a specific field in order to write about it. If you’re willing to take the time to research the topic, then the sky really is the limit when it comes to deciding what you want your niche to learn from you.
Of course, today it’s easier than ever before to do research. All you need are some Internet smarts. If you know your way around the ‘net, then you should know how to use Search Engines and article directories to find information for your eBook that you can digest and rewrite in your own slant and voice.
You’ll have to be careful that you don’t infringe upon any of the copyrighted material. Everything that you write will have to come from you. You can’t copy something that someone else has written into your eBook and then sell it. This will more than likely cause you to become involved in a nasty lawsuit, which is something you don’t need.
Creating an eBook to sell online can be a lucrative endeavor for your Internet business. You can make some serious money as an information publisher. This is especially true if you take this job on yourself instead of hiring a ghostwriter to do the work for you. It’s even truer if you choose a topic that you enjoy so you can get down to the business of researching and writing your eBook.
The next time you have a great idea that you would like to write an eBook about, go ahead and give it a shot. You’ll discover that this eBook is something that your website’s visitors will purchase. This is because you know what they’re looking for and you can create your very own product with their needs and desires in mind.
Plus, after you’ve finished your eBook and have it ready to sell, you’ll feel a great deal of accomplishment and pride. Affiliates will flock to represent your information product, too, if it’s chock full of value and lessens the refund rates.
