The key to creating a best selling e-book is to find a hungry crowd and feed them. Creating and selling e-books is a great way to turn your knowledge into a profit. Here are a few tips for finding a hot market

1. Start out writing articles about your subject and link them to your Blog or Squidoo lens. By tracking the links you have set up in your articles you will get a good idea if your subject is on fire or not.

Run a test PPC campaign. Set up a one page questioner and do some PPC advertising under keywords in your niche. Ask your visitors what kind of questions they would like answered about your particular subject.

3. Change your listening. Listen to people around you at the grocery store, in class, ect... Listen for hot subjects and problems about that particular subject. Do the research and offer the solution in your e-book.

For Example: A hot subject right now is High Definition TV. There is a lot of confusion right now about High Definition TV and the change from an off- air Analog signal to a Digital signal in 2009. Most people are rushing out to buy High Definition TV'S believing that this will solve their problem.

By the way, I just gave you a best selling subject :-)

4. Join a forum or email group such as yahoo groups. Read what common questions people are asking. Read the answers, do a little research and provide the solutions into your e-book.

Write a How-To manual. In today's world of instant gratification, people want the answers right now. How-To- Guides and Tutorials are some of the hottest selling info products on the web. Remember what is common knowledge to you is not always common knowledge to someone else.

For Example: Let's say you grew up working on cars with your Dad on the weekend, or making home-made Christmas cookies with you Mom. These things may be common practice to you but not to everyone else.

6. Last.. but not least. Read as many e-books as you can. By reading other people's e-books you can get a good idea of what the lay-out of a hot selling e-book looks like. Pay attention to the number of pages the content ect...



Oh... and one more thing. If at first you don't succeed... try and try again. Remeber Thomas Edison failed some umpteen times before he created the light bulb?
