Publishing an ebook has its advantages and more and more readers prefer books in such formats due to some special features encompassed by an ebook: hyperlinks, multimedia content, interactivity. But there are not so many properly formatted ebooks, yet the industry is growing. Why? Publishers and self-publishers around the world use ebooks as tools to get money fast. They create websites to present their ebooks and start affiliate programs, to promote and sell what, many times, is not even worth a dime! Some ebooks are free, but written to promote paid software or programs. Fact is: publishing an ebook has become a great self-branding tool. Practically anyone can publish their own book online and sell it virtually anywhere in the world: no more shipping costs and the auto responders and programs like PayPal make the sale a snap! The question is should you publish an ebook? Yes, if you have what to say. It doesn't matter why you choose to write an ebook and publish it, as long as your work is of real value and brings something new to the industry. These are the main reasons why self-publishers choose the "ebook way": Self-branding. A talented author needs a publisher, but he (or she) is unable to find one ready to listen and read his (her) words. A good ebook, with the right promotion, has all chances to be discovered by other publishers and transformed into a printed publication if it is worth. The author might choose to give the ebook away for free (thus increasing his/her chances of being read and getting a larger public on his/her side). Business-branding. This happens when business owners choose to write and publish an ebook with the sole purpose of promoting products (like software, garden tools, light sources etc), or services (SEO, web design, financial consultancy and so on). Ebooks for business branding could also be free or for sale, depending on the needs of their publishers. The main advantage of publishing ebooks is closely related to their low costs. While the publishing software might cost a bit, all you need to do to publish your book is time, talent and a great deal of online marketing knowledge to promote and distribute your ebook. The amount you win (in fame or money) is directly proportional with the amount of effort you put into the publicizing of your ebook. This should be even higher than publishing. You should know your target audience well, know their preferences and know how they'd like to receive an ebook (whether pdf, HTML or executable format). If you do your job right you might wake up one day with a PayPal (or click bank) account full of numbers. There are many authors literally wining money while they sleep. And they have to thank it all to an ebook! Don't get discouraged if you don't see results fast. They key to success is perseverance and the key to online success is to be found and


trusted. If you are not sure how to do that, hire an online marketing company or an online public relations firm.
