Find out the Secret to Making Thousands of Dollars a Month on Amazon Kindle Selling eBooks Online

Making money on the internet can be kinda difficult at times. Especially with no guidance or even worse following the wrong guidance. You will just waste a ton of money on bullshit. Its a good job that we're here. In this article you will learn how to make money on Amazon, specifically with the Amazon Kindle.

What is Amazon Kindle?


Amazon Kindle is an online eBook publishing platform from online book and retail giants Amazon. People visit the Amazon Kindle Store to purchase ebooks that they can read instantly on their tablet, laptop, e-reader or other platform.

Amazon Kindle is a very good platform to make tons of money on. Amazon Kindle market and distribute your book on their website and you receive money if your book sells. It could not be any simpler. It is very easy to get started on Amazon Kindle.

Getting Started


The first thing you would need to do is register an account on the Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) website, this would involving registering your personal details as well as entering in a bank account in which Amazon can pay you. Once you have your account set up you are good to go and you will be able to publish mind-blowing books.

There are many advantages to selling ebooks on the Amazon Kindle, the first one being it is very simple to use and its even easier to upload your content on. You get to keep full control of the book and just with one click you can publish your book globally and it will reach readers worldwide.

You choose between two options for royalty payments. The first option is you receiving a 70% royalty fee if your book is priced between $2.99 and $9.99. The second option is if your book is priced between $0.99 and $200 then you receive a 35% royalty fee. I would recommend using the 35% option at the start and price your book at $0.99. This is because your book is relatively new and it will bring people in as $0.99 is not much of a financial investment as a higher price such as $3.99. More people will buy your book and thus you will get more reviews and more profit. Once your book is more established you can raise your price up to $2.99 or higher to receive the 70% royalty fee.

Reviews are very important when it comes to establishing your book and making it successful. Reviews help a customer decide if they want to buy the book or not. A good way to receive good reviews is to enrol your book into the KDP Select programme. The KDP Select programme is an promotion that Amazon designed which is basically Amazon let users download your book for free for a selected period of time. If you enrol your book into the programme you will get more people to download your book. This means if your book is good, (which it will be) people will want to share it with their friends and recommend it. They will share it on social network websites like Facebook and Twitter. That means more positive words about your book and you receive free advertising. Enrolling your book in the programme will also mean more people will have the chance to post positive reviews about the book.

Finding a Profitable Niche


Ok, that's enough of our shameless self promotion, now back to business. You might be thinking what shall I write about? Write about your passion. Something you are passionate about helps because you will enjoy writing about it and you'll be knowledgeable about it (if not research about it on the internet). Your passion can be anything from cats and dogs to football or cars. You can teach people how to look after their dog properly or how to play golf properly. You can even write about fiction books and create the next Harry Potter. You could write children's books, romance novels, thrillers, anything that you want.

You also have to make sure the niche you have chosen is profitable, there is demand for it and it has low competition in the chosen niche. To see what is popular browse the Amazon Kindle Most Popular section or go on eZineArticles for some inspiration.


If you can't be bothered to write your book yourself then you can always hire someone to write it for you. You can find someone on freelancing websites such as Elance or Odesk and get them to write for around $30-$40 for a 60 page book. All you have to do is make an account and post a job, which are both free of charge. Make sure you specify all the details you would like to include in your instructions to your freelancer.

Make sure the book you write or get written for you is of high quality. This is very important as you do not want to receive a negative review for your book. Remember feedback and reviews are very important and you do not want to get bad ratings.

Next you will need a design a good looking front cover that will attract buyers. You could design it yourself if you have good skills on Photoshop or you could hire someone on Fiverr. Fiverr is a micro-jobs website and people charge only $5 to make an excellent looking front cover.

A good tip for making extra money from your book is to include affiliate links in your book. If you would like to learn more about Affiliate Marketing click here and here. Inserting affiliate links will make you extra money. Want more help with Affiliate Marketing? Read the review of the Online Affiliate Guide here. Don't overdo it and only put affiliate links in where you need to otherwise it will just look spammy. Also dedicate a page to writing down a copyrighted notice that protects your book like this.

Getting your book on Kindle


Once you have done this you can upload put your book and front cover together and convert it into PDF format. You can do this on Microsoft Word. After you have done that you can upload it onto Amazon Kindle. You also have to correctly format your book in the correct Kindle format. You can use AK Elite Bookmaker Software to correctly format your books in the correct method. You can also do it yourself by following the Amazon Kindle Formatting Guidelines Log into your Kindle account, click add title, set the price of your book and you are good to go. Make sure you make use of the description and the title. Write a good description as this is one of the main things that sells your book. Make sure you tell potential customers what the book is, what you will learn, why you should buy the book and any other information they need. The description word limit is up to 700 words so make sure you use all of them. Insert keywords into your title. So for example if your book is teaching people how to play golf then you could call your book:

Learn how to play Golf like a Pro - Step by step guide to play Golf

Play Golf like Tiger Woods - The Ultimate Guide to Playing Golf

 

Promoting your eBook


So you have now successfully published your book on Amazon Kindle. Well done. Now you need to promote it like crazy! Make social media pages for your book on Facebook, Twitter and Google Plus and also post content that promotes your book. Get people to share it on their Facebook, Twitter and Google Plus. Create a blog for it. Make a video that promotes your book and post it on Youtube. Get bloggers to review your book. Anything that spreads the word of your book.

You could also give it away for free to people. Post it on Facebook groups and fan pages about your niche. In our golf example you could post it on Facebook and Twitter pages that are similar to your niche. You can gift the book to chosen email addresses therefore getting people to give verified Amazon reviews.

Submitting your book onto your website to get it more popular. The main aim should be to make the book viral. Posting it on book websites like GoodReads and LibraryThing. Get the Ultimate eBook creator, it also lets you publish to Apple iBookstore and Barnes and Noble. Click here to find out more about it.

Put a link to your website in the footer of your book on each page, this way people can visit your website. It will bring more traffic to your website or blog as well.

By following these steps and using a 'Repeat and Rinse' process you can create an eBook empire that brings you in thousands of dollars of passive income a month without you even doing anything. All you have to do is repeat this process and carry on publishing books.

Here is a Method that will Help you to Make Money and Save Time

Regardless of whether you blog for personal or business purposes, it comes with its share of mundane and repetitive tasks. Running a successful blog requires a considerable amount of time and effort, but unfortunately there are just 24 hours in a day, and just so much we can prudently do within that period. On a brighter note, there are a number of ways to ease your blog related workload such as newsletter and blog management, Pininterest Pins, data gathering and online research, social media scheduling and management and email management. The best and most successful way to free up some time, and use it along with your efforts in other areas of your business is by hiring a Virtual Assistant (VA).

Before we get into how this technique helps, let’s take a look at what is the role of a virtual assistant so that there are no misunderstandings with the concept. A virtual assistant is just that, a person who’s doesn’t sit in your office or even in your country, but maybe located in some tip of the globe. Although this individual is located in a far off country or zone, you are still able to maintain meticulous communication with them using VOIP or other online platforms. The primary job of a virtual assistant is to help you with your tasks that you are basically overloaded with, but some people have used them to assist with their kid’s homework and plant pranks on their mates on the other side of the globe, which is not recommended.

For blog and other related help, a VA is a perfect choice, and helps you use the time saved to focus on other areas of your blog. You can hire a virtual assistant to upload your posts, videos, manage comments and SEO, and some may even be able to compose your blog posts from scratch, which will save you even more time and money. At present, your blog may be the frontline for your business or bringing a handsome monthly passive income, which will be business and usually or even better with the help of a virtual assistant.

Are Virtual Assistant Services Expensive?

Well, this completely depends on your budget, and how much you think these services are worth to you, but in most cases is around $5 - $8 per hour. Some VA’s may offer you their services at rock bottom prices, and not because there are inexperienced, but due to the rather low cost of living in their country. That said, the chances of finding a VA for $5/hr in the United States are rather slim to none simply because the minimum wage starts at $11/hr, but is definitely possible in countries in Asia.

Another aspect to considering when determining the best price for a VA is the tasks they will be doing. Some virtual assistants may charge a bit more if the jobs are of a technical nature, copywriting, or even multitasking. Then there are VA’s that charge based on their experience and although you will need to consider it, it is not something to base your decision on. There are two sides of your blog that your VA can manage – Technical and Non-Technical. On the technical side, you can have your VA cater to aspects such as updating plug-ins for your blog, keeping your blog up to date and backing up your blog. On a non-technical note, you can assign your VA tasks such as generating blog post ideas and keyword research, drafting blog posts and writing the final copy, optimizing blog posts maintaining a blog bank and managing and replying to comments.

Daven Michaels CEO of 123Employee.com shows how to manage your VA

How do you monitor a VA’s Performance?

Although most VA’s provide daily reports, you will want to monitor their performance to ensure you are getting value for money, and there are a number of tools to help you do just that. You can choose a VA from a dedicated virtual assistant placement agency, which not only provides you with the workforce, but also tools to keep track of their performance. When deciding on the best VA agency, it is important to peruse their portfolio and their reputation.

Moreover, virtual assistants can be hired through most freelance websites, which is great way to get the cream of the crop for a number of reasons. First, websites such as Elance and Odesk provide tracking tools at no extra cost, which allows you to keep track of your virtual freelancer and obtain performance reports in real time. By taking this route, the freelancer only gets paid for the hours worked, and you can dispute any inconsistencies with the billing.

Another notable aspect about hiring virtual assistants through freelance websites is that their feedback from previous clients and their portfolio is readily available. Lastly, all the billing and invoicing is handled through the website so you literally have an end to end virtual workforce online. Additionally, these websites are free to join in most cases, but there may be a small project fee involved that can be shared between the employer and contractor.


With the tools available today, virtual assistants can be as productive if not more than traditional employees in your workspace, and at a fraction of the cost. In the beginning and speaking from personal experience, it may feel weird getting used to the extra time created by your virtual assistant, but you will become a productive team before you know it.

It is important to test the waters in order to find the best virtual assistant, and you can do this in a number of different ways. Be clear about your expectations, because each VA works at their own pace and schedule, and take into account different time zones, which may not be in line with your working hours or when you would like the work to take place. For your first VA project, it is recommended that you select a few candidates and assign them a small task to evaluate their performance. When hiring virtual assistants, you have to keep in mind that some may outperform over the rest, while others may lack the skills needed in certain areas. You can always hire more than one virtual assistant to do perform different tasks, but this may prove to be an expensive ordeal. In conclusion, if you’re looking to free up some time that you can use towards other aspects of your blog and personal life, getting a virtual assistant is a profound solution.


 Hope you enjoyed this article. We would love to hear from you about your experience with Virtual Assistants. Do you have any recommendations about VA's or do you have any further questions? Comment below and we'll get back to you!

The Secret of Making Money Using eBay


Making money on eBay is more easier than it sounds. For those of you that don't know, eBay is an online auction site where users can buy and sell products to anyone in the world. eBay was founded by French born, Iranian-American entrepreneur Pierre Omidyar in 1995.



eBay is also a place where there are a lot of people making money online. If you utilize it properly you can make money off eBay really quickly and a good amount. The first thing you will have to do to sell on eBay is to make and open an account. After you have done this you will have to open a seller account. A sellers account is really simple to make and you just have to provide some simple details. eBay will then ask you to provide a phone number so they can confirm if it is you selling. Provide a phone number and confirm that it is actually you and you are ready to start!


Anyway lets get back to the main topic, how to make money on eBay. There are millions of people making money on eBay each and everyday and you can too, you just have to avoid the common mistakes that everyone makes.

Spelling Errors

Some sellers normally make errors in their title and either spell the name of the product wrong or list a completely useless title that no-one will search for. It is your job to look for these and grab a bargain! For example if you are looking for a iPhone, someone might of spelt it 'ifone'or 'iPohne'. These is one of the easiest ways to profit of someone who has made a genuine mistake.

Bulk/ Job Lot

Buying in bulk has many advantages. Firstly if you buy in bulk you usually get the product you are looking for at a much cheaper price However when searching for Job Lots you will also find faulty items with the items with spares or repairs. For example when searching for job lots you could search for 'mobile phone job lots' or just 'job lots'. Some items may be faulty but if you know how to fix items then you could make a tidy profit.

You can buy and sell almost anything on eBay

10 Items that Sell on eBay According to eBay Pulse

These are some of the products that sell well on eBay. eBay Pulse shows the most searched for items. This doesn't mean that they sell well, but they are well searched for. 

  1. Routers 
  2. iPhone 4S (unlocked) 
  3. Xbox 360 
  4. iPod Nano 
  5. PS3 
  6. Headphones 
  7. Blackberry 
  8. Coach 
  9. Macbook 
  10. Nintendo 3DS 
Other consistent top sellers include Kindle, shoes, laptops, jeans, and top name clothing brands.

These are just some ways you can use to make money on eBay. eBay isn't necessarily something easy to make money on, however if you persist at it then you will start to see results.

In order to maximise your profits and make money on ebay you must learn how to buy low and learn how to sell high, believe it or not with a good auction listing you can earn as much if not more from a second hand product than you can from a brand new item, this is the key how to make money on eBay.

Learning how to buy low empowers you to sell high, learn from the mistakes people make and use proven techniques to sell their items at high prices and earn money from ebay by buying low, re-listing the items and selling high.

To buy low and start yourself on the track to make money on eBay you need to find badly worded or items with spelling mistakes in their titles and use software called auction snipers to ensure you get the items at the last possible auction moment for the lowest price.

Auction sniper programs are available at a very low cost per snipe, the best one I have ever used is called AuctionSniper (use Google to find). To find products with spelling mistakes there are freely available websites that will turn your correct spellings into common mistaken spellings and find the items on eBay for you again the best I have used is Goofbid(www.goofbid.com).
Once you have sourced and bought items at low prices, how do you sell them for profit and make money on eBay?

In order to successfully make money on eBay through selling your items the single most important part to get correct it to get the title correct for your listing.  This is what eBay matches the majority of people selling to your items.  Here is an example of two listings :

Ipod Nano 4GB

New Apple iPod Nano 4GB Black MP3 Player (I Pod 4 GB)

The first item description is how the majority of sellers list their items; the second description is how people who want to make money on eBay list their items.
The reason being you are covering more potential search terms with the 2nd title so you are giving yourself the best chance of a bidder looking for your item, you will get approximately five times the traffic than you would from the 1st listing title, that is potentially five times the bidders or five times the chance of someone clicking the BUY IT NOW button.

This is your key to help you make money on eBay; The key is all in the titles, there are hundreds of more tips to help you make money on eBay and I will be writing more guides with tips and techniques of squeezing every last penny out of your auctions.

20 Genuine Ways to make Money Online

If you’re looking to make money online, there’s good news and bad news – the options are literally endless and you’re not the only one! This surge of appeal in making money from the comfort of your home has generated several unscrupulous and illegitimate propositions, but the 20 ways listed below will definitely help you get started in the right direction.



      1.            Become an eBay seller

eBay has been a powerful marketplace ever since its inception in 1995, and one of its most notable features is that no matter what country you live in, you can explore its full potential with little or no startup and marketing costs. All you need is a computer, an internet connection and a digital camera to get started, and eBay brings the customers to you. The trick is to getting your foot in the door is to gauge what sell and what doesn’t, and you can do this by selling some of your own stuff such as old computers and other electronic items.

     2.            Have you heard of Amazon’s Native Mechanical Turk?
Amazon’s Mechanic Turk is the company’s offering of a freelance website, and is a great route to explore if you’re looking to make an extra few bucks a day. Although most of the jobs on Mechanical Turk don’t pay very much, however it is a great way to dive into the world of freelancing and be your own boss. Most tasks on this website take no more than a few minutes to complete such as surveys and gathering data, so if you’re looking for some spending money, this could be your best bet.
     3.            Get Creative – Become a Freelance Writer
If you are a freelancer you can also promote your services on Facebook
There’s tons of freelance writing jobs on the internet, but the only pitfall is that the pay may not be appealing in the initial stages or until you get noticed. The best way to go about this is to join freelance websites such as Odesk, Elance and Fiverr and simultaneously build your reputation by posting on article directories such as Ezine and Go articles. The key to making more money as a freelance writer is to build your reputation, and eventually open your own copywriting business.
     4.            Are you still posting Pictures on Facebook for Free?
If photography is your forte, then why not earn some extra cask by selling your creativity on stock photo websites such as iStockPhoto.com. Just like eBay, you will have to find out what photos sell and your target audient, but it’s definitely worth your efforts.



     5.       Become a Feature Writer for Magazines and other Publications
This is yet another way to get pronounced as a freelance writer. Writing for magazines and publications may take time to get started, considering they only want to feature the best writers, but once you’re in the door, the pay out for your creativity is only what you see fit.

     6.            Become a Transcriptionist
If freelance writing or photography doesn’t appeal to you, there’s always a career to explore. The primary job of an audio transcription is to simply listen to audio files and transcribe what you hear into a word document. As easy as this may sound, a career of a transcriptionist does require a keen eye for detail, an excellent command of the English language, and may get challenging if time stamps are needed. The best way to get started as a transcriptionist is to join freelancing websites (Odesk and Elance) and eventually open your own transcription company.
     7.            Write and Submit Articles to eHow.com
If you know the basics of keyword research and can write error free informational articles, eHow.com is a route to explore. Although your earnings from eHow.com may not be something to boast about, you can easily bring in an extra $200 per month, and that’s just for 30 articles.
    8.            Offer your Services as a Virtual Assistant
With busy schedules online and offline, people especially bloggers are looking to ease their workload with the help of virtual assistants. Again this job may not pay very well, but this depends on your employer and the number of hours you work per day. Going full time as a virtual assistant could fetch you an upwards of a $1000, the tasks include email management, travel bookings and scheduling appointments.
     9.            Grab a Slice of the Lucrative World of Affiliate Marketing
This is probably the hardest way of all to make money online, but once you reach success, the income is endless and everlasting. You can either create your own product and market of promote other successful products such as eBooks available through websites such as Clickbank and ShareaSale. Again building your reputation as an internet marketer does take time so if patience is not your best characteristic, then this path should be duly avoided.


10.            Get in the Dropshipping Business

Who doesn’t like things delivered to their doorstep, and you can be that arm with no investment whatsoever. Forget about stocking up on products to later have them gather dust and eventually lose their value. Dropshipping allows you to ship products from a virtual warehouse as and when orders are received. There are a number of dropshipping services available, but it is important to choose a reputable provider that pays handsome commissions and on time. ChinaVasion is a great place to start off.

  11.            Write an eBook

There are virtually thousands of eBooks available at any given time in any niche, so the chances of you being successful complete depends quality and your marketing approaches. The key is to find a topic that offers a solution in some way to people who desperately need it. Niches such as financial, medical and legal are top seller, but also need some level of expertise to produce coherent copy. Amazon KDP is a great place to start off with self-publishing.

 12.            Start Blogging

When you hear the word blogging, the first thing that probably comes to mind is Impossible. Sadly, this way of thinking is the primary reason for failure for most enthusiastic bloggers. With any of the ways to make money online in this list, the key to success is patience, and that unfortunately is not conceived overnight. There are many free blog hosting providers, and require no prior tedious programming knowledge to get started.

 13.            Get in the SEO Game

Every business seeks a distinct online presence and an entry into the first pages of Google, and you can make this happen by providing SEO services. There’s a lot involved in running your own SEO Company, and most of it requires patient and expertise.

 14.             Learn Web Design

Considering that most websites and blogs today are built with no hardcore programming knowledge such as HTML, being a web designer is not only a great opportunity to help others while earning an enviable income, but a great way to gain expertise that you can use in your own blogging ventures. With website being a considerably large domain, it is recommended that you focus on a specific platform such as Wordpress, Joomla or Drupal.

 15.            Become a Software Geek

Although most software available today is easy to install, there are still many people who just can’t get it right. Installing their software probably won’t buy you a house, but will definitely help with the bills every month. Once you’ve gained expertise installing software, you can offer your services to business owners that require help with most complex software, and this is where your trusted expertise pays off.

 16.            Selling Interviews

People are always looking for inspiration and interviews of experts are one of the most viable sources. Interviewing experts such as bloggers and doctors will not only boost your online visibility, but you can also sell them post them on your website or blog. To succeed at selling interviews, you need to have excellent copywriting skills and know how and where to advertise.

 17.            Participate in Logo Designing Contests

Boast your creativity by creating logos and selling them on online marketplaces such as 99designs.com. If you’re really good at it, you can even open up your own logo shop, but you will need an extensive portfolio to make it worth your efforts.

18.            Create Facebook and Twitter Cover and Fan Pages

If you like social medic hangout, then helping people and businesses spruce up their company or personal profile is an excellent choice. Although you may not gain a ton monetarily, it will definitely bring in an extra couple hundred or every month.

 19.            Get into the Audiobook Business

The first thing consumers look for in a product is convenience, and it doesn’t get better than listening to your perfect novel while going about your daily routine. Depending your clients, the pay for an Audiobook voice can range from anywhere between $5 per hour to $500 per hour. For obvious reasons, you will need to possess an appealing voice and excellent command of the specific language.

20.            Become an Editor

For those who have a keen eye for detail and prolific grammatical skills, an editor is a great option to explore. At times, editors are paid more than the actual writers of the publication, and it’s just a matter of looking in the right places.

Making Money the Easy Way

Money is the only thing that has countess admirers. It is really hard to find even a single person who has no likeness towards money or cash. Money has many names, dollars, pounds, yen sterling but, all have just one business buying and selling. We need money for scores of reason. We have to pay for grocery, we need money for insurance premium, and money is required to get proper shelter, clothing, education and so forth. We need money for each and everything. It does not mean that money is only thing or cash and capital is everything for a person, but there is no lie in it that there is nothing devoid of cash. It is not less than a necessity.


What is the real business and myth of making currency or cash all about? This question may not sound interesting but I am really sure that no one now the exact answer of this basic question that how much cash, money do these people really need for a better life? And what are the criteria of a better life? The responses or the replies to these queries hinge on the standard of living of the people. Another aspect that is really important to consider while answering the question that what are the material need of the people. Anyhow one thing is really clear that money is the only power that can subjugate rest of the powers and influences around the globe. Even the people who believe or at least say that they believe money and cash or other assets are not only thing use to talk about money and cash. And what your material needs are.

Money is considered the solution of almost every issue. Some may find it materialistic approach but the reality is that most of the people around the globe are searching new means of making money. The need money to live a respectable life, as it is the status symbol. More so, it will not be an exaggeration to states that the balance of the back account determines how respectable people are. Making money is not an easy thing to do, especially when the word is facing one of the greatest economic depressions. Companies are forced for downsizing. Every day and week is creating issue for the people.


Economists believe that the people are not having the respectable space to breathe. But, they have to manage families, social and their personal lives, and for that they need to have adequate amount of cash. In such a scenario people are not having enough opportunities to make more and more money. There are two ways, the legal way is to get a job or start a business and make money (which is not a good and reasonable way to look for, owing to downsizing trends in the modern arena of business. The second way is illegal way that may include robbery, theft and other illegal means. None of the source is good for money making. Than what comes next? How we can earn money without any additional expense or outlay. In the following lines I would like to share blogging that can help the people to earn more and more money.

 
Internet and money making  
Internet or the world of web sites which is known as World Wide Web was measured as a cause of wasting time. But, with the passage of time the users of World Wide Web had proved that the intentions and the motivations behind the innovations are always positive and they are aimed at the betterment of the society. The service was not designed for making money in way it is using right now. Many thank to invention of internet that gave one of the biggest opportunities to make money without any issue. Let’s discuss how internet is being used to make money.


Blogging

Blogging is one of the ways to earn money by means of World Wide Web. I believe that most of the readers will agree with me on the issue of online money making that this is something incredible and to some extent unbelievable. It is really like a dream comes true. Mounting inflation demands more and more cash for the better standard of living. And online money making is more or less the same dream that can be realized and can be cashed anytime. There is no doubt that internet and websites are awash with the counterfeiters, and they are damaging the trust level among the users of this technology, yet we can never deny the potential of internet in order to make money. There are millions and trillions of opportunities and prospects to make additional money. Blogging is among such ways. Interested people and the users can make the greater part of their money or cash from blogging.


They can receive even ratio compensations or rewards for blogging service from scores of blogs all the way through the World Wide Web. People are paid to compose blogs as financial analysts, whistle blowers, reviewers, social marketers, commentators, and much more. If the people start writing articles and blogs for some other web sites it can build some positive traffic to their own blogs. The best thing about blogging is that the easy way to start this business, to make personal blogs, people does not have a need to acquire any website’s domain. People can start their free blogs on Blogger. What required is the appreciation from the public. If the blog is appreciated by the readers it can give the owner a golden chance to make money at great pace.


Owing to the fact that the companies are now making a u turn in the direction of online marketing blogs are gaining immense importance and the writers or the bloggers are fully aware with this situation and they are not going to miss even single chance to make money out of their efforts.
