How To Create And Sell An eBook On A Budget

Now is the best time ever to create your own book and with the internet, it no longer has to be very expensive nor do you need to have a publisher; you can now create a simple eBook written in front of your computer and still achieve the same benefits you'd achieve from publishing a book.

In fact, sometimes, it's better to create an eBook than a book; it's easier, too. Fortunately, getting people to pay you for your eBook is no longer a problem; E-junkie has solutions that make it extremely easy for professionals of all kind to create and sell their eBook.

If you're considering creating an eBook, here are some of the benefits to having your own eBook;

• It's free and easy to do; with a computer and a Word application, creating an eBook is extremely easy today

• It can serve as a great source of income; people are now paying attention to eBooks than physical books and eBooks can be sold for much more than physical books, so having an eBook can be a great source of income for you

• It instantly positions you as an expert; if you're qualified to write an eBook on anything, then you probably already know a great deal about it

• It helps you reach a bigger audience; if you leverage E-junkie's payment system's affiliate option, you can get affiliates to promote your eBook to their audience and expand your reach as a result

While all the above benefits sound great, creating and selling an eBook isn't exactly as easy as ABC. It requires some planning and that's what this article will help you uncover in a series of steps:

Step 1: Determine a Topic Your eBook will be About
This is very important; the first step is to look for a main market that centers on people's problem, passion or pain e.g. healthcare, getting out of debt, making money, playing chess, bedwetting etc. These are all topics that are examples of problems, pains and passions people have.

Once you've determined a market, the next step is to determine a sub-niche; creating a book on "how to play chess" would be very difficult to market today due to the fact that there are many books on the subject. However, you'll increase your chance of selling an eBook on chess if it's "How Your 6-Year Old Kid can become a Chess Master"; you see how specific and niche that is?

Step 2: Create a Website
Once?you've?determined your niche and eBook topic, the next step is to create a website.

It won't work for you to just create your eBook because marketing will then be a problem. The purpose of your website is to position yourself as an authority and build a base for yourself by constantly updating your website and promoting it in various places online.

For creating a website, I'll recommend a tool called Easy WebContent; Easy Web Content has an easy online website builder and a web based html editor that allows you to create a website or edit your existing websites.

An example of a bestselling author using Easy WebContent is Antonia Felix.

You'll be able to choose from dozens of themes and then customize to your taste, even if you're not a designer.

I know, you're wondering why I didn't recommend Wordpress like everybody else is doing? The reason is simple, as promised by the title of this post, we are creating an eBook under a budget and while Wordpress is free, it often costs thousands of dollars to have a professional design and maintain your blog; something you can do freely as an Easy WebContent user.

With that said, let's go to the next step.

Step 3: Plan Your Content
The reason I recommended creating a website is so that you can position yourself as an expert on your topic; you can do this in many ways, but the easiest way is by publishing relevant content on your website. Doing this will benefit you because people will link to you and talk about your website, people will naturally start seeing you as an expert as you write more about a topic and your rankings in the search engines will improve, which will result in more sales.

To do this, it's important to effectively plan your content, though; you want to keep writing about the same subject. If you're writing the example eBook on chess for 6-year-old kids, for example, your content could center around "checkmating techniques for kids" or "how to get your kid to master chess quickly" or "chess tactics for kids 6 years and under"; you get the idea? You want to position yourself as a go to expert when people talk about kids and chess.

Also, whenever you publish content on your website you want to be referencing your eBook in your content and recommending it as a great resource.

Step 4: Create Your eBook
Now that you have an idea for your eBook as well as a website, the next step is to write and create your eBook.

For you to have settled on a topic then it means you have great understanding of the eBook. The next thing you want to do is to write and convert your eBook to PDF; if you're using a current edition of Microsoft Word ? 2007 and above ? then this shouldn't be a problem. You can simply write and format your eBook in Word and then save it as PDF before uploading it to E-junkie.

If you're not using Windows or don't have a Microsoft Word version that converts to PDF, you can install the Open Office software; this makes it very easy for you to write your eBook and save it to PDF.

Once you've created your eBook, you will then follow the instructions provided by the E-junkie payment system to upload your eBook, add a pricing and then sell it.

With this, I believe you can create and sell your eBook for just under $100; you don't have to break the bank or spend a fortune and you get great results as well.
