How to develop an ebook?
March 26th, 2009 by adminHi,
I'd like to develop an ebook on the real meaning of SEO. How do I develop an ebook and sell it for a fee, including an affiliate program?
I believe this poster said s/he would like to sell their e-book for a "fee," not for free. I am a professional writer and have written dozens of e-books. Here is some information I have learned over the past year of e-book writing and research:
You should carefully research your target market. Even though you want to make a lot of sales, you're better off writing your e-book for a specific group of people who need your information. You can do an e-book on general SEO techniques or write something like "SEO for Attorneys" if you want to target a specific market. Once you have an audience in mind, you will be better able to write an e-book that sells.
Keep your e-book concise and to the point. 25-40 pages is a good length for an e-book because you can cover the information you need to cover without resorting to adding fluff just to reach some arbitrary length. Use bold or underline formatting, headings, and bulleted lists to break up large blocks of text and keep the attention of your readers.
If you want to integrate an affiliate program with your e-book, all you need to do is use your affiliate link(s) within the e-book text. You don't need to make a blatant sales pitch. Simply integrate the link into an area of text where it fits naturally. A good example would be a chapter on SEO software - if you were in an SEO software affiliate program, you could say something like "I recommend the SEO software distributed by Acme Software at www.acmesoftware.com/affiliate01234" where the link is your affiliate link that will help you to earn commissions.
When it comes time to sell your e-book, you'll need to have a plan in place for sales so you can maximize your profits. Develop a sales letter that has a strong call to action and encourages readers to buy your e-book. Most visitors to your web site will want to see a sample chapter from the e-book to help them make a buying decision. Offer a few sample pages from your book so potential buyers can see what the book is all about. In terms of e-book delivery, it is best to have an automated system where buyers can download their e-book immediately after payment is made. There are many software programs available that will help you to automate the entire process.
Once a customer has made a purchase, you can even implement follow up marketing. You may want to send an e-mail offering to sell them another product at 50% of the normal price or give customers information on your other products and services.
I just finished an e-book on SEO so here are some of the topics you can consider covering in your e-book: choosing an SEO company, how search engines work, avoiding SEO scams, unethical SEO methods (keyword spamming, cloaking, etc.), benefits of SEO, the importance of links, and any other SEO information you can think of that will benefit your readers.
I don't think I can link to my web site from here, but feel free to e-mail me if you have any more questions. I'd be happy to help you get your e-book off the ground free of charge.
