Publishing Your eBooks Just Got Easier!

These days, more than ever before, authors are presented with publishing opportunities that have by no means existed before. This isn’t to understate the hard work that authors need to go through to obtain recognition, create fantastic books, and make a full time income from their passion of expression. However, it is to say that today, due to advances in communications and technology, authors can now get their books distributed much simpler than they could a decade ago.

One extremely well-liked way that authors are distributing their work is digitally via eBooks. Digital books are gaining a lot of recognition that even a few of the most popular authors on the planet have used to distribute their books. Stephen King for example published “Riding the Bullet” exclusively in eBook format.

When this eBook began distribution over Barns and Noble and Amazon.com there was a lot of demand for the download that the servers of these two book giants slowed down nearly to a halt. People that wanted to download the eBook were put in a big queue along with the hundreds of thousands of others who downloaded the eBook also. It is not just big name authors that are finding good results in eBooks.

A large number of these individuals are first time authors and are often astonished with the success of their eBook sales. Below are a few of their eBook writing suggestions.

Do not underestimate the energy in the EBook.

EBooks are nonetheless looked on as unpopular by numerous authors who’ve not yet taken the time to learn about the success within this business. For example, while the conventional publishing industry is expanding at the sluggish rate of 5% a year, the digital publishing business is expanding at prices in between 30% -50%. Because of this the opportunities within the publishing business are growing at a fraction of the rate that the digital publishing industry is.

To setup an eBook you do not need to be a tech wizard. Setting up your eBook from the idea conceptualization stage towards the promoting stage cannot be completed overnight but it is certainly something that can be carried out by anyone regardless of your technological background. If you can use a word processor then you can create and offer an eBook online.

While it’s recommended you set up your own website, it is not necessary. You will find outlets such as amazon.com, EBay and Lulu.com to name only a few sites that allow you to post your eBook on their servers.

Setting up an EBook site is virtually costless and also you maintain 100% in the profits.

With conventional publishers you will be lucky to see 10% in the profits from your book. With eBooks nevertheless, you keep 100% of the profits minus the fees needed to set up the website that are minimal.

Right here is the charge breakdown for eBooks vs. conventional books:

EBook vs. Book price

EBook = Free to make an unlimited number of copies.

Book = roughly $1500 for 200 copies of a 200 page soft cover book

Rights and profit

EBook = You keep 100% of the earnings and rights to your eBooks

Book = You receive 10-40% royalty (usually about $2-$5/ book)

Using the examples above, it’s simple to see that for first time authors, eBooks make a lot of sense. The risk related to publishing an eBook is a lot lower than it is with distributing a soft or hard cover book. Likewise, as an eBook author you’ll maintain practically all your own profits.

If nothing else, it’s something worth consideration. EBooks might not substitute conventional paperback books, but they certainly are gaining popularity at a rate that should make all authors stop to think about how they could use eBooks to their advantage.
