Last week, we were lucky enough to publish our first eBook last week for you called Effective Blogging: 50 Tips To A Successful Blog and after that process was over, ten different people asked how I put it together. So naturally I needed to do a blogging series on it to highlight what I had done within the little bit of experience that I have now.
Below is a list of topics we will discuss on writing and publishing your own eBook that we will be addressing in future posts. By no means is this a step-by-step process to creating the perfect eBook that will sell millions and put you on the map. If you want that, visit Seth Godin’s blog. Here you will find some very practical steps to making an eBook and some advice of what not to do.
With that being said, we will also not be sharing how to sell these eBooks because I did not go down that path. There are so many things you have to consider when doing that, like creating an actual business, tracking sales for putting it on your income tax, and finding companies that will help you get these documents in the Amazon online store. We assume this is for free or that after you create the document, you will consult someone else on the next steps to making money off your eBook.
- Is It Right For You?
- What To Write
- Preparation To Writing
- Mind Maps and Outlines
- Putting It All Together
- Formatting The Document
- Forewords, Quotes, and Networking
- Creating The Right Filetypes
- Distributing The File
Throughout this process, do not hesitate to ask questions for further clarification. These articles are put together because of our fans asking for help and that is what we want to do for you. We hope that this tutorial will be exactly what you need to get your next eBook out there a little more smoothly than just doing it on your own.

Looking forward to hearing how you approached this process! eBooks are taking off and a great way to convey information without trying to get published. If you have something quality to offer…people will read it!
