Write and Sell Your Own E-Book
There are some extremely persuasive arguments for publishing and selling your own e-book online. The profits are potentially high - providing you can actually find a market for the book.

Jim Edwards is something of a success story in this field, with endorsements from such marketing gurus as Joe Vitale, author of titles as alluring as The Greatest Money-Making Secret in History! and Spiritual Marketing: A Proven 5-Step Formula for Easily Creating Wealth from the Inside Out.

A big part of Jim Edwards' success can be attributed to his marketing talent, which you can witness by clicking on one of the links to his own e-books below. That's right! He sells e-books that tell you how to write e-books!

Even if you don't want to write your own e-books, you can sign up (free) as an affiliate, sell Jim's e-books on your existing website and pocket a hefty commission... Take a look.

E-books by Jim Edwards:

• "eBook Secrets Exposed"

Create a Website, Become an Affiliate, Claim Your E-Cash Share
If the idea of creating your own website seems a little daunting, you will find plenty of help both online and in print. It can be a very rewarding experience, and it involves relatively little outlay. See our resources section for links to some excellent sites and sources of information.

The Internet is excellent at providing niche market opportunities; if you want to start up an online bookstore, you'll be up against some pretty stiff competition. However, if you want to sell comic books from the 1950's, you'll get fewer (but more relevant) visitors who are more likely to be interested in your specialist site than in just another site selling the latest best sellers.

The best part is that you don't actually have to have any stock to create a website which makes you money. You don't have to worry about processing payments, shipping merchandise or dealing with problem customers. How do you manage this? Become an affiliate.

An affiliate is an individual or company who signs up (FREE) to an affiliate program run by a company such as Amazon.com (or Amazon.co.uk). Amazon was a pioneer in this field, and now it is possible to become an affiliate of thousands of companies worldwide. The theory is simple and effective:

• Sign up as an affiliate (FREE)
• Use pre-designed banners/links on your site to promote your chosen merchant
• Receive cash for sales created by links on your site!

I could go on for hours about the potential benefits of being an affiliate; where to go, what to do - but half the fun is finding out what is possible for yourself! However, a few tried and tested pointers will put you in the right direction. There are plenty of books available on the subject, but one which I read with enthusiastic speed was The Neatest Little Guide to Making Money Online, by Jason Kelly, available as both a US Edition and a UK Edition.

In short, the biggest investment you will make is your time. The cost of your domain name, webspace and time online is the main financial outlay, but it won't break the bank. You'll find links to web service providers in our resources section, as well as links to affiliate networks, free content providers, website creation resources and many other very useful websites and links to help you on your way. Check on the updates regularly! Good luck - and have fun!
