Internet Business: Creating an eBook without any writing experience

eBooks have been selling like hot cakes. Interestingly, if you study the eBook market, you would realize that a majority of websites or even individuals who sell eBooks may not be great writers themselves. Professional Writers can be hired at very reasonable costs to write the book. There are writing mentors or coaches out there that will assist you in that part of the process if need be. What's important is for you to bring in a knowledge, passion, or belief in your subject. That's what makes writing sell in the first place. Anyone can be taught how to put the words down; it's what is being said that is important.

Alternatively, writing the book yourself, even without prior experience is certainly an
option. We would discuss several guidelines and tips for writing an eBook in the next section.

Getting Started – The first few steps

eBooks deliver complete, instantly available, expert knowledge in a single, easily handled
package. Creating an eBook may not require prior experience, but it certainly requires
careful planning and considerable groundwork. You create eBooks wanting ongoing,
lifelong multiple streams of income. eBooks should be created with the aim of raising
your credibility and trust ratings with clients or customers.

Selling eBooks comprises of three phases. The first phase involves researching and
developing an idea for the book, the second phase involves writing the eBook, and the
third phase involves marketing the eBook. Let us try to understand each of these phases
in detail.

What Works and What Doesn't – Researching Topics

The Internet is primarily used to communicate, entertain, educate and research. It is thus
no wonder that information-intensive eBooks are the most popular online products at
present. How do you decide on a subject for your eBook? The simple answer is research,
research, and more research.

Your main objective is to write on a subject that has long term appeal. After all, you would like to derive as much profit out of your eBook as possible. It is thus necessary
that your subject does not get outdated in a couple of months. The best way to choose a
topic is to figure out what people look for. This can be done by analyzing top searches at
Search Engines. Many search engines as well as other popular portals such as Search
Terms keep a track of the most popular searches over a period. Besides, there are many
other tools such the Keyword Live Software from Analog X that monitors top search
terms at major Search Engines. You could use these lists to figure out the most popular
subjects.

The next step is to carefully analyze some of the most popular subjects. You can use
popular keyword search tools such as WordTracker or Overture’s Search Term Tool to
determine popular search terms similar or relevant to the one’s you have listed. This will
give you a much more specific and focused list to work from. However, deciding to write
an eBook based on a popular search term may not be a very smart idea. The key is to
establish the exact need of people. There may be many eBooks that target the same
subject. However, most of them would probably be devoid of some aspect of the subject.
Unless your eBook fills this void, it would not be a success.

Creating the eBook without any writing experience is not difficult. With a little bit of
research and learning you can create an eBook that is workable. The toughest part is to
get hold of a killer idea. After all, eBooks are all about ideas – the better your idea, the
higher your sales.
