eBook: Step By Step is Finished

As you can probably notice from the time of the last post, that I've been up to something. Well that something has been finishing my ebook on how to create ebooks. That seems to oversimplify things a bit, so let me give you a little more indepth review of my new book, and what it's all about. If you've been following this blog for any amount of time, you'll know that I've been very interested in creating something that will sell it'self over and over again, with minimal effort. When I say mininimal effort I don't mean every touching it again, no I mean not recreating something each and every time it's asked for. After trying to find recources and information on creating eBooks, it became clear to me that there wasn't any good resources out there to walk me through what I wanted to do. So I went ahead and created my eBook to do just that, walk you through how to create an eBook.

How Much Do I Write?

How much to write in your book is a question I get a lot. It's also the only question that I can answer very quickly, and the answer is ... I don't know. That's right, I don't know how much you should write, because I don't know your subject. How much you write depends on how much information there is to make your reader feel like they got something of value. I like to try and explain it like this. Write your information down as if your the one that is reading it. If you think something is missing than write more. If you find yourself writing garbage and start writing just to add worthless facts, then you aren't really doing your reader much good. Keep in mind that your writing these guides as a way to inform someone about something. Your not writing these to be worthless.

Don't Waist Another Day

Everyday that your not writing is a day wasted that you won't be able to sell your information online. When I set out to write a book, I try to break it down into manageable pieces. The first thing that I always do is outline. I'm sure there are fifth grade teachers everywhere cheering for joy, because the writing skills you learned in grammar school are going to be very useful in creating your ebook. What follows is the outline I used to create my “Blogging with Blogger and Get Paid by Google”.

Monetizing Your Content With Ads

You have created that wonderful website, and your designer has designed you a great "blog", and you have now curled up with your laptop and started writing content that everyone is going to enjoy reading. But wait! How will you make money with all the hard work that you've put into your blog? How will advertisers find me? How much should I charge? Never fear, there is a simple solution that you can use that takes all the guess work out of monetizing your content. The answer you seek is Google Adsense, and if you haven't heard of it before, it might just be the key component you need to generate a few extra dollars of income for the content on your website.

Tools That I Use

I got an email from someone reading along, and they wanted to know the "Tools" that I use to create my eBooks. That's a pretty good question because I actually use two different tools. First let me start by saying, the tools I use are dictated by the place that I'm currently working from. There are many times that I work from the local coffee house, and there are times when I'm working in my home office. If I'm working from my home office, I use my PC and I use a word processor called Open Office. I like OpenOffice because it's FREE and it seems to have all the same capabilities that Microsoft Word has, with the added bonus of pdf generation. If I'm working from a coffee house or some other remote location, I'm usually on my laptop and using my MacBook. On my MacBook, I use Microsoft Word, which is an older version, but gets the job done.
