Ebook Marketing For Profit
Start selling immediately
your account is set up. Don't wait for FREE search engines.
Nothing really is free.
Waiting to get listed in free search engines can take eternity.
Getting listed for free in free search engines like Google, Yahoo, or
MSN gets you free traffic. But you can with for months without getting
your book web page listed.
And once you get listed, there is no guarantee that you will always
be listed. Search engines shuffle their algorithm ever so often. Each
time they do that, they drop countless number of sites.
The search engines owe you nothing. That can list you anytime they
wish and drop you anytime. And they can decide not to list you all time.
They are no obligated to you. It's free remember?
In this sense, free search engines are not really free. The time you
spend waiting is really money lost. Remember . . . time is money.
Therefore, an effective ebook marketing strategy must include pay per
click advertising of some sort.
Let's consider ebook marketing using Google adwords program and
investigate how profitable this can be.

to write a title, a description, and a destination URL for your ad.
The secret to running effective and profitable ads program is this:

The Profit Equation
The question most often asked by first
time publishers is, "Will I make money from my ebook?"
This is a natural question as no one in
his right mind want to throw away his money. Therefore, profit concerns
is a natural concern.
Let's take a critical look at this.
Yes, you can and will make money from
publishing your book online if your ebook marketing strategy is right.
We have mentioned that advertising
through pay-per-click programs like Google adwords is the fastest way to
start seeing results . . . and profits . . . almost immediately.
Now, let's look at the profit equation.
You know that . . .
Selling price less cost price Equals
profit.
Expressed mathematically,
selling price - cost price
= profit
Your cost in this case is your Google
adwords expenses.
Suppose your ebook marketing starts
with an adwords advertising campaign of say, $0.3 per click. That is,
you pay $0.3 every time someone clicks your ad in the google advertising
network.
Suppose you have a 2% conversion rate.
That is, two visitors buy out of a hundred visitors to your book sales
page.
Advertising cost for hundred visitors
= $0.3 X 100 = $30
Suppose your selling price is $29.95
per copy.
Two copies = $29.95
X 2 = $59.90
Therefore,
Profit = 59.90 -
30 = $29.90
Have you made profit?
Of course.
In this ebook marketing example using
pay-per-click marketing strategy, we assumed a 2% conversion rate. You
can very well achieve 5% conversion rate or more.
That means more money for you.
