Facebook Pages have several attractive features for ebook marketers:

• They have the ability to go “viral” — if one person becomes a “fan” of your Facebook page, their friends will see and often will want to become a fan too. Facebook markets your page for you, and with a catchy page you can attract lots of fans quickly and go viral.

Facebook builds personal relationships. These days, the following personal relationships can help you with selling ebooks:

Answer: We now know the naysayers were wrong – eBooks are no fad.  Anyone with Adobe Reader (that means anyone with a browser these days) can buy an eBook about practically anything and in 60 seconds be browsing through the pages and printing the parts they like.  Some of my own publishing sites have grossed over $1 Million in sales, and although I am one of the few that has done that with electronic books, I know of many authors that are doing well.

Answer: Become a “Journalist” and Sell Your Ebooks!

There are an abundance of article sites on the Internet that offer articles to the public: so that Net Surfers can type in keywords and get articles for different topics. But many ebook marketers don’t know about “faux news” sites that look like real news sites.

Answer: I’ve found that the best topics for selling on the internet have to do with making money or saving people money. With these topics you’ll always have an audience, especially in tough economic times. Topics like how to get better credit, how to develop a new business or profitable sideline – like writing, marketing, and selling eBooks – these topics are timeless.
