Ever Consider Writing an eBook?
If you’re looking to establish yourself as an expert online, there are three main things you should be do:
- Blogging
- Getting Articles Published Through Other Sites (such as Advice Network)
- Write an eBook
While the first two are generally the easier, writing an eBook can take you to a whole new level of success. All Freelance Writing posted an excellent article on your options when putting together an eBook.
In the article, Jennifer Mattern discusses the possibilities behind writing a free eBook. “Free e-books have a better chance of spreading virally. Most paid e-books don’t grant the buyer the right to distribute the e-book to others, while free e-books often do. Using a free e-book as a viral marketing tool simply means that your e-books will get passed around via word of mouth (or the Web’s equivalents).”
I believe free eBooks are one of the best means of self promotion. Nonetheless, you’ve got to make some connections before it will ever be found. If you’re looking to build an online reputation, then you really need to build some relationships first. As my Dad used to tell me, “business is half what you know and half who you know.”
