Tips on selling eBooks

First things first for those of you that do not know what eBooks are. This is probably the simplest explanation that I can give. eBooks are electronic books that you can open, read, and print by using your computer.

Many people have bought eBooks and software for whatever reason selfhelp, selling on eBay, the list is almost endless. You know what they say knowledge is power.

Several eBooks that I have authored are currently being sold on eBay and the eBooks that have been purchased and given to me free is in the thousands there is a topic for almost anything you can think of from A to Z.

Why not take a look at my eBay store at: http://stores.ebay.com/E-InfoSpot. While your there browsing around go ahead and check out the feedback and about Me pages. You really should check out my webpage here is the webpage url: http://www.e-infospot.com

Selling eBooks on eBay is nothing new alot of sellers claim they have made lots of money in the 100,000.00 range and more.

My experience selling eBooks on eBay has been around 6 months. The profits for me have been no where near 100,000.00 but they have paid my seller fees, internet access, hosting fees, and my featured store on eBay.

That in my opinion is not too shabby lets face it I'm not getting rich but selling eBooks is starting to become a nice second income. Who knows maybe one day I'll quit the full time job.

Lets take a look at the normal cost of an eBook selling on eBay the average cost totals around 2.99 to make around 100,000.00 per, year you would need to sell close to 100 each and every day.

The question you may have at this point is it possible to sell that many eBooks each day? My answer to that is in my opinion yes it is realistic and achievable.

Realisticly to obtain a goal of say 100K annually in sales you will need to automate as much of the selling of eBooks as you can. Put it on autopilot so to speak, and you will need to attract as many potential customers as you can.

Here are two items that is a must to have if you are looking to make some serious money item number one is an eBay store, Item number two would be a website. You need these two items to have the ability to cross promote and drive traffic to you. Without traffic there simply is no sales.

Promote promote promote I can't say that enough join forums and post to as many topics as you can. Ask questions become an active member.

Warning don't go into these forums and start blasting ads all over the place or you will find yourself banned faster than the time it took to register.

Pay per click advertising is another way to go I suggest you research it very well it could get expensive very fast so go with a well known advertiser such as Yahoo/Overture, Google, or Kandoodle. Don't play around with them ppc's that promise 100,000 visitors for only 10.00 and that type of traffic scheme.

One thing for sure if you are going to go the traffic wholesale route you might as well throw your money away because buying that type of traffic is the same thing.

If you are considering going that route send the money to me and I will send you some real information that can actually do you some good. I hope this article has been entertaining and informative
