Kindle and Nook. Those With E-book Readers Read 40% More Than

youngsters,
As there is a great demand for eBooks, do you know that your blog posts are a ready-made eBook? Have you written, say, over a thousand articles? Here are the ways to turn your blog posts into one or more eBooks:
1. Select
a title for your first eBook: As I
write about living with life, my first eBook is an overview of several subjects
such as health, work, personal finance, family, relationships, self development
and happiness. When the first eBook is
done, I can expand and write more in-depth eBooks covering each topic in my first eBook. You should do the same so that you can publish
several eBooks without running out of ideas.
2. Choose
relevant articles from your blog: My blog platform is Blogger. It is able to
tell me the number of views for each article. So, it is easy for me to choose
relevant and popular posts for my eBook. However, it is necessary to combine
and revise several articles to suit one particular chapter.
3. Use
Word to write your eBook: You can write your eBook using Word. It allows you to
convert your files into eBook formats such as ePub, an open industry standard
and Mobipocket, the format used by Amazon.
4. Selling:
Consider selling your first eBook to Amazon and Apple iBookstore because Amazon
sells the most digital books and Apple sells the most iPads. You also need to
consider the selling price of your book. For Kindle, you can choose either a
royalty of 35% starting at $0.99 per book or 70% royalty starting at $2.99 per
book.
5. Promotion:
Promote your first eBook on your blog and social networking sites like Facebook
and twitter. Tell your friends and do a press release.
As I have just started working on my first eBook. I
will provide more details as I go along.
