I've been planning to write an ebook for a long time now. I always start writing like the first 10 pages but end up abandoning the project later on.
Anyone here with experience in writing ebooks?
I know the actual subject and niche of the future ebook is your main problem. If you plan writing a tutorial based ebook you clearly need o have extensive knowledge in that field. For me, that would be SEO, I know I can find a micro SEO niche to write about, doing general stuff is already overdid but hundreds of publishers, so going on something completely different that isn't yet on the market would be my approach.
I want us to share ways tips on writing an ebook, like how long should it be, how much of a price should I ask for it and where exactly do I sell it?
I know wordclerks would be a great platform to sell my ebook, but what about other marketplaces, anyone here has the experience of selling ebooks on amazon?

I'm an author and I've written a few reports and ebooks, although I've never written an ebook of something totally unique or something that never have been covered before. When I wrote my latest "money making" ebook I literally bought and read a handful of similar ones. Ebooks in the same niche and about the same topic. I knew that it would be a waste of money by buying all of them but I did it as some of them could have included something totally unique or different than the others.
I did this to find out how they wrote it and to get enough inspiration to write a better copy than I've read myself. I didn't re-wrote their products or anything like that. When I priced it, I did what I usually do. I set my price too low. Instead of charging $27 right off the bat, I sold it for $9,97 to begin with. I increased my price to $27 and lowered it to $19, which I've been selling it for since then. I've also had it priced at $12 during a week or so.
The reason I did this, was due to the fact that I wanted honest reviews from actual customers. I gave away a few copies for free for this purpose too. I usually sell my ebooks on WF and on blackhat forums for starters. And to my previous, personal clients of course.
When it comes to pricing I would say, try to compare your product with another, similar one, and set your price to whatever you want with that in mind. If you think it's worth $47, then you should just go for it. In case you think it's better to sell more copies, then I would suggest to set the price to anything between $9,97 and $27. The reason I use those price tags is because of WF. WSO's often goes for $7, $9,97, $12, $17, $27 and $47. It's quite unusual to see a WSO for $11, $15 and $25 for instance.
I hope we'll see many more great replies in this topic, thank you!
