"Should I Sell My eBook?"
Many people want to know whether or not they should be selling their eBook, and if so, for how much should they charge. The decision to sell needs to be made based upon your own interests and intentions. An ebook that may sell great for one particular niche, might not produce any results with another one.
If you do decide to sell your ebook, you have to determine how much to charge for it. This can be very tricky, because a price too high or too low can produce drastically worse results than you were hoping for.
One great strategy is to take a look around at other niches and products in your industry and use them as a gauge. Additionally, mentioning a high selling price but 
immediately slashing it to a lower value for a limited time can be a great way to help produce sales.
Formats That Can't Be Beat
Another major concern for people that create an ebook is what kind of format to use. Fortunately for you, most e-readers and consumers themselves all use PDF format. It's become the standard for the most part, so thats one less thing to worry about.
One thing to consider also, is audio. Audio has become the new "thing" for ebooks. Because everybody has an iPod nowadays, it's becoming more and more popular to find an ebook that has audio to go along with it. Of course, this should be something that is looked closely at when your online business is up and running already.
Using Your eBook Primarily for Traffic
Many online marketers create an ebook not to sell, but instead use to help generate attention, reach out to new prospects, encourage website visitors to signup for email updates and so forth.
In this way, you aren't directly producing revenue but you are giving yourself a much better chance to do so in the future. When used this way, writing an ebook and giving it away for free has the possibility of being a significant income generator.
Use the knowledge in this section when writing your ebook. Whether it be for money or brand recognition, ebook writing can be enjoyable and very effective for marketing your website or blog, just keep in mind these general tips as you get started.
