“Whether you like it or not, having your own product gives you more flexibility in your online advertising AND believe it or not, compiling an Ebook is no more then a weeks work part time if done correctly and IF you do it this way the profits will come in for life.

Ok, lets get down to the nitty gritty. What is a viral marketing E-book and why should you create one?

A viral marketing E-book is a book which sole purpose is to be spread around the Internet quickly, by any means possible. It’s not meant to make you money on the front end. You want other people selling it and giving it away to as many people as possible.

Why? Because the inside of that book is full of affiliate links to other peoples products and every time someone gives away your book or sells it, (depending on how you want to do it) more people will be seeing your affiliate links, and this wont be costing you a penny!

The best examples I could give you of this process would be by Adam Cox. He created 2 marketing books that spread over the Internet like wildfire. He gave everyone who purchased the book for $19 or $17 (depending on the book) the rights to sell it or give it away to their customers. Needless to say, thousands of people starting selling it and promoting it all over the Internet.

To this day, He is still earning big money from that book, plus he became one of the most well known Internet Marketers to date on his website you will find more information visit: www.onlinepassiveincome.co.uk

So how do you go about creating your own viral marketing E-book? Here are the steps.

1) Come up with a product idea based on your affiliate program you’ve already chosen and are already promoting.
Coming up with ideas isn’t hard. For example, and I know I use this example a lot, BUT, If you are going to be promoting a sports betting affiliate program, why not create a book on becoming a successful punter. Then throughout the book, you can recommend your favorite sports betting affiliate program.
101 insider secrets to sports betting How to bet with other peoples money A good way to come up with ideas is to look at what others are already selling and mimic that. You don’t need to recreate the wheel here, so PLEASE don’t make things harder then they have to be.

2) Get the tools you need to succeed You are going to need a few tools here: A domain name, you want a fairly short domain name that describes the content of your book fairly well. You can go to http://www.godaddy.com to register your domain name.

B) Web hosting Let me say first, you get what you pay for. This has never been truer then with web hosting. YOU NEED a good reliable web hosting company with 24/7 technical support. If your site goes down and you can’t contact anyone to help you get it back up, you will lose sales and a lot of them.

C) Autoresponder You will need this so you can contact your prospects that don’t purchase straight away. This is where you will give away your free course or someway to entice them to give you their email address so you can contact them periodically.

D) Credit card processor Just use http://www.clickbank.com This step is too easy. They will let you accept all major credit cards and start an affiliate program for a one time setup fee of under $50. They do take a percentage of every sale, but this is so much cheaper then getting your own merchant account. Just about everyone selling E-books online is using Clickbank.com , you can also use paypal.com

E) E-book Software You will more then likely want to create your book in PDF format so everyone can read it. Some E-books come in EXE format, but mac users can’t read that format, so I find it best to use PDF. You can create your book with http://www.createpdf.com for a fairly cheap price.

F) Graphic Design Software If you are anything like me, your artistic abilities peaked at age 7. So instead of busting my hump to create my E-book covers and website graphics I use http://www.1clickcovers.com I do however recommend one graphic designer by the name of Max Rylski. You can view his work at http://www.maxcovers.com

3) Outline your book chapters into articles Writing a whole book in one sitting is hard, and trying to write a book without outlining the chapters is nearly impossible. My first book I ever wrote took me over 6 months but now most of my books take me less then a week to finish and that is with a sales letter and website up. All you have to do is think up 12 to 15 articles topics in sequence and write about them. Each page should be around 700 to 1000 words, full of useful information, not information people could get for free.

4) Write your content Like I said just before, you need original content. There are too many books out there now where people are just regurgitating information others can get for free and this lowers the value of your book, which means less people will pass it around and even less will read it. The best way to get a good amount of original information without writing it yourself is to interview experts in the field. For instance, if you were writing a book about improving your golf handicap, I’m sure it wouldn’t be too hard to find some local experts who you could grill in person, over the phone or even via the Internet and you can then put all that information in the book. It’s also a good selling point. Also remember when your writing what the point of this book is. The point of the book is to earn you an on going commission with affiliate programs, so don’t feel like you can’t throw some affiliate links in, because you can, but make sure it’s tactful and in place. Another good idea would be to put a “”Subscribe to my newsletter”" section in your book as well. So not only will you make commissions on sales, but also generate leads without doing any extra work. Make sure you clearly state in the front of the book, that the buyer can sell this book as his own. State that he has Resell Rights to the product and can sell it or give it away if he chooses.

5) Create your sales letter This is where you will be selling your book from and is critically crucial to your success. Creating a sales letter takes a lot of work, especially if your new to the whole thing. The best way and the way I use, is to mimic successful sales letters.

6) Plug in your free 5 day autoresponder series The best way to write your free 5 day course that your prospect get via your pop up window is to take chapters out of your book and put them in as a free teaser. Remember to emphasize urgency. You want to make these prospects who don’t buy straight away, feel like they are missing out on an opportunity of a life time and considering the low price of the book, if they don’t buy, more then likely they weren’t really interested or were freebie seekers from the start.

7) Advertise! Depending on your topic, you will want to target different people. However, no matter what topic you’re selling on, there is one market who will want your book for the sole purpose of selling it, and that’s the Internet Marketing group. Your book could be on Hippo’s but all they care about is the fact they can sell it as their own. This is why this type of book always does well. The key is to target people in your market and then the Internet Marketing crowd.”

“To state that the internet has changed the way that we live is an understatement. The way that we check the latest movies listings, catch up on current events and buy and sell goods has drastically changed over the last decade. We now live in a world where anyone can get their product or message out to the masses with ease. No longer are the voices of the media giants and large corporations the only voices that are heard. In today’s world even the little guy has an equal opportunity to promote and deliver goods and services.

One example of how the internet has changed the scope of the world is the way millions of people now read comic strips. Online comics, also known as webcomics, are a new phenomenon that has embraced the internet over the last decade. Webcomics, as the name implies, are online comics that can be read off of a website versus the traditional medium of a newspaper or magazine. Unlike traditional comics, where very few comic strips are accepted into syndication, anyone with a talent for writing and drawing can put together a webcomic.

Authors of a webcomic strip can range anywhere from a high school students to adults looking at using their creativity to make a successful living for themselves. Whether or not the artist produces a webcomic as a hobby or a source of income the potential profit streams are endless. A popular online comic website has the same opportunities as other popular sites when it comes to creating income for the website publisher. Need proof, a couple of examples of income earners for webcomic sites are that they can sell advertising space or merchandise using their logo and images.

It’s a new world out there and the internet has given the ability for all artists to let their voices be heard. Whether your interest is poetry, writing or creating comics, the internet is an exciting medium that gives you an equal opportunity to show off your talents.”
