EBooks are one of the hot trends of the Internet world. There is a growing demand for electronic books as readers accept them as a quick and efficient way to get information. Likewise, many people want to write their own eBook but how do they go about it? There is information on eBooks “out there” on the net, but it is spread all over the place, which makes it difficult to use. Fortunately, author Scott Boyd gathered up all that information, added a wealth of his own knowledge, and combined it all into one handy reference book, Make Money Online: Write and Sell EBooks.
Boyd begins his book by discussing the burgeoning market for eBooks, the benefits of writing eBooks (such as establishing yourself as an expert on that book’s topic), and how you can either use eBooks to make a little extra spending money or grow the publishing of said books into a successful business.
Make Money Online: Write and Sell EBooks covers every facet of researching, writing and marketing eBooks. From choosing `a compelling title’ to `how many pages’ and `how to price your eBook,’ there’s not a topic that the author has missed. It was refreshing to read many sections where the author dealt, in depth, with subjects that are often covered, but typically in a quick cursory way in other books. For example, when discussing price, Boyd doesn’t just say, `check out what others are charging and price your book accordingly.’ Instead, he explains what will happen if you price your book too high or too low before moving on to finding the ideal price. He also offers great tips to increase sales such as setting your price in an amount ending in 7 or 9 (ex. $47 or $35.97) because marketing research has shown that buyers are more likely to purchase a product priced that way.
Much of the advice in Make Money Online: Write and Sell EBooks works for both eBooks and traditional “hard-copy” books. Both need things like ISBNs and blogging to promote them and Boyd tells you exactly how to do both, as well as many, many other things. Both also need websites for proper Internet marketing and the author, as with other topics, fully explores this issue. I found the author’s suggestion of creating “mini-sites” for each eBook particularly interesting. Boyd explains why each eBook should have its own unique site rather than a page on a larger site. As an added bonus, the author maintains a blog where he offers additional information on eBooks (the site’s url is listed in the book).
While the topic of this book could make for a rather bland reading experience, the author injects a bit of humor and personal opinions to add spice. “I can’t stand the bright and thick borders that some authors seem to love. They seem unprofessional to me, maybe I am crazy.” (pg.75). While the writing is entertaining, it must be noted that there are errors in grammar and punctuation that interrupt the flow of the text in places. For example, “If you use their servers, they will run ads in around your blog…” (pg. 197). Having an editor clean up the text would greatly enhance the reading of this book.
Quill says: For those interested in getting into the hot eBooks market, Make Money Online: Write and Sell EBooks will prove invaluable.

One look at the table of contents would make a person think that this book is a course in writing ebooks. This is not the case. While the author does include information on a number of topics, the information is general and wrapped up in just a few sentences. Each topic in a chapter is pretty much summed up by the topic header. For instance, a header of “Adding security to your sales sight” will just say that it is a good idea to add security to your sales sight because hackers try to get your information. Then there will be two or three filler sentences to seemingly beef up the paragraph. This does not happen in all sections, but it happens in most.
My other complaint is that the book talks a lot about editing and professional appearance, yet the book I received has many editing errors in it. Within just the first few pages there are spelling and grammar mistakes, as well as sentences that are oddly and extremely spaced out throughout the book. The print is also big, adding to the count of pages, but not to the quality of content.
This is definitely not a comprehensive book and the video tutorials DO NOT EXIST ! I typed in the web page exactly as it is in the book and it does not exist. I tried multiple browsers and still, it does not exist. I do not know if he changed the web address or if he simply does not sell enough ebooks to keep his site afloat.
The only good thing this book has going for it, is that the individual headers did make me think of topics that I otherwise would not have thought of. However, learning anything of specific value about those topics is going to take further independent research.
At most this book should cost 6 dollars. I want my money back.

This is without doubt the most comprehence book I have ever read on the subject of writing ebooks. All the key aspects of writing,editing. publishing,promoting,selling,and much more are explained better and in detail than they were in any of the other books I have read. This book saved me many hours of research and many dollars by not having to buy so many reference books

I started reading this book and couldn’t put it down. There was more information in this book than any that I have read before on how to write books, or how to write ebooks. It is written in simple terms so that anyone with limited computer knowledge can follow along. It is my number one reference book. I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in getting into this business, and anyone who is in the business and needs all the right information in one spot instead of all over the place. BUY IT. At this price it is a steal.
