Best Selling Books to write and sell
Print books can be written into eBooks. This certainly does not mean that you copy the print book and write it into an eBook. However, popular print books can often provide good ideas for an eBook. Browsing through your local book store or library may help. It may also be a good idea to check out the best-selling non fiction books every week.
Go to Amazon.com and see what books are available on various topics. See how they rank - the higher the rank, the more demand there is for that type of information. Then go to Google.com and see how many web sites there are with free information about that topic. Don't get discouraged if there are a great many -- oftentimes people would prefer an eBook they can read off-line, even if it costs a few dollars, rather then spending hours reading on-line.
Cashing in on other people’s ideas
We touched this issue in the earlier section. You should always research the Internet to determine what eBooks sell the most. A particular topic may cater to a huge audience. There may be instances when you stumble upon an eBook that seems to be very interesting but has not sold enough due to poor marketing. Cashing in on such eBooks can skyrocket your income.
Message Boards and Discussion Forums
Online Message Boards and Discussion Forums are places people generally visit when they have a problem and need solutions. This is exactly what you want your eBook to address. Join public discussion forums and message boards and note various kinds of issues people have. This would give you a better idea of what kind of information people want. List out all the problems and try to develop a broad idea that addresses most of the concerns. Also, newsgroups as well as ezines may be a good source for ideas.
Brainstorm
Take your general topic and brainstorm around it. Turn off the critical part of you mind for a moment, and just note down everything that comes to mind in association with that topic. Don't judge these initial ideas yet, but let them flow freely. No one will see these but you; they are fodder for further research, not refined search proposals. Take this list of general ideas and go through them one by one with a critical eye. Evaluate their merit as possible subjects for your book. Consider related ideas or concepts. Develop three or four ideas that hold potential as eBook topics.
Brainstorming is the activity that's going to that eBook idea right out of you so respect this step and it right. A good brainstorming session can literally produce of good ideas.
