Effective Ways to Market Your eBook


Whether you are an eBook writer or a publisher, your concern should always be how to market your eBook effectively.  The success of your book depends on how effective you market it in the first place.  Here are the six simple, yet highly effective ways to market your eBook:
1.       The most important thing to consider is to know your target audience. eBook readers who are looking for specific topics would like to read up on the topic first and see if they can get it for free.  You can get a potential buyer by giving them a piece of important information but leave them wanting for more which you can provide straight away with the link at the bottom of your article.

2.       Another way is to market your eBook is to use search engine optimization. It is an excellent way to get targeted traffic. It is best to get to prompt the consumers first by getting your website to the first page of Google for the keywords related to your eBook and generally, more traffic makes more sales.

3.       Utilize pay per click marketing.  It is the strategy of putting your advertisement such as a picture but will probably have a few lines of text on Google searches and other websites. Using this strategy can get your website on the first page of Google while doing away with SEO and onto other websites with the same topics.

4.       Ask your Friends and Contact List to Advertise Your eBook
You can ask your friends in email, twitter, facebook and other networking sites to advertise your eBook.  In this way, you can save money but can effectively advertise your book.

5.       Put a Link or Notice on the Front Page of Your Blog
It would sound so easy or a “no brainer,” but readers do sometimes overlook your eBook advertisement.  It is a very good idea to post a clickable picture of your book at the top of your sidebar so that it will show up in all the pages of your site. 
 
6.       If you are a member of various writers’ forum, be sure to always update your signature with links that directly redirect them to the pages of your eBook.  Make a catchy advertisement that says your eBook is now available and is a limited edition or offer, so they must hurry!
