Subscribe RSS FeedIf you ask me, ebook publishing is one of the best ways to make passive income online and offline. This is because you are leveraging on your most valuable life experience, interest, knowledge, training or research to write an ebook and sell it online to a target market that has a problem to solve. Ebook writing is easy if you follow the simple 5 steps of the writing process; namely, prewriting, drafting, revising, editing, and publishing.
Electronic book (a.ka. ebook, for short) is a readable material on a specific subject or topic which is written and compiled in digital format that anyone can download from the internet to his or her PC or laptop. Electronic books come in various designs and formats depending on the type of ebook software that an e-author used to compile it.
You can have a .PDF or .EXE formatted digital product. However, the most popular of them is the PDF because PC and Mac users can read it on their computers.
