So what does this mean for web businesses, and especially authors? Well, ebooks have probably become one of the best ways to make money writing. However in the midst of this ebook industry growth there are also a number of ebook publishing myths floating around. Let’s look at four of these myths.

Myth #1. Writing an E-book is Difficult

It’s not. It is certainly no more difficult than writing a regular book and in many cases it can be much easier. Don’t forget that the average ebook has far less words than the average book in traditional print. There are lots of bestselling ebooks in the range of 25 to 80 pages, and it is certainly much easier to write 75 pages than to fill up 240 pages!

Myth #2. Getting People to Promote Your Ebook Will be Difficult

It is not. When your ebook is finished and published, you should consider selling it at marketplaces like ClickBank and Click2Sell. As well as enabling you to take credit card payments without having a merchant account with your bank, these marketplaces have thousands of affiliates eager and chomping at the bit to promote good ebooks.

Myth #3.  It is Better to Do It All Yourself

It is not. Self-publishing is a great way to go, but after you write an ebook and publish it you should enlist as much help as possible in marketing and selling it.

Doing joint ventures with related sites is just one example of how you can do this.
 

Myth #4. When Your Ebook Is Written, Just Sit Back, Relax and Wait for the Checks to Roll In

Not a good idea. You should always be working on your next ebook. It is almost certain that interest in your first ebook is going to fall off after some time. It could take years, but it might only be months or weeks.

By always having more ebooks in the development pipeline you should be able to mantain at least several good sellers on the market at any point in time.

Think about these myths.

Next think about your desire to succeed as an ebook author.

Now start writing ebooks. Write. Publish. Sell.
