There are just so many ways to make money online and selling ebook is one of the way.You don't have to write a ebook since not everyone is a writer. But you can go to those website that will give you resell right for some kinds of ebooks and start from them . Some may requires a few dollars and give you a whole ebook store with over few thousands collection for you to do your business and some of them are free as well.But how to sell it in an effective way through online promotion is a question for me . Any advice for that?

Most of the ebooks you get for free or pennies are either rubbish or really old so the writer has already made their money out of them. What you really want to look for is a book on a specific subject that is looked for by a relatively small group of people and market directly to that group. The make money online, weight loss and health & fitness markets are so saturated that to sell something in those markets is extremely hard, if you have a hobby or an interest write, or get an ebook about that and market directly to that market. As quoted by one of the successful marketers, Steve Weber, "It is better to have a small part of a small pie than none of a big pie" Start small and grow, do not try and start big.

happy face - I want to make money online with a happy face.
oH, THANK YOU FOR YOUR ADVICE AND i THINK YOU ARE DOING GREAT IN YOUR ONLINE BUSINESS. I REALLY HAVE AN open minded and learn thing from others. i know there must be a market for ebooks but just don't know hoe to reach the small group you are talking about. There are always many competition online and if we can't build up our leads, it is going to be hard as well. I used freeautobot once but it always go to the junk mail while was only trying to test it with my own email. Use Aweber? I think it must be good but too costly as I don't have the money to start up like that. Any recommendation or advice for start up to sell ebook for free? I m willing to listen?Thank you again.

I've never heard of this concept before. I've heard of you selling an actual book over the internet like Ebay and so forth, but this is completely new to me. I, on the other hand, turned to response typing for this company called kgb. I really feel like I have a victory today because I finally passed their test and have what it takes to be apart of their team. They're supposed to email me in about five days for now for training purposes. I can't wait until they do. They don't pay that much but I feel that if I can work hard I can finally leave my dad's house.

eBooks is a saturated market. Most people know that you can find most, or oftentimes even better info right online for free! But ebooks still do sell, most people who buy them a probably newbies, so perhaps you can market them to the newbie market and make a killing
