subject: Clickbank Makes Self Publishing Easy [print this page] Do you have a passion for a particular pastime and wish you could share it with others? Self publishing is one way to that you can share your stories with other in an inexpensive way. You also can make money at the same time.
Perhaps you have written books about a particular interesting topic but don't think you have the technical knowledge and connections to get your book published. In the old days, publishing a book requires much effort and financial commitment. However, with the advancement of Internet and digital resource like computer, publishing is no longer just a unreachable dream. It has become easier to publish your books, especially digitally. Let's look at how to do it.
ClickBank is an online portal that sells digital products. It has created an easily accessible and easy to follow process for self publishing authors to promote and sell their books to millions of potential customers. And their publishing tool is affordable and reliable. I am speaking from my own experience as a digital product publisher.
The main reason I use it is that it has a reliable payment process. It handles the payment and refund without the need for me to intervene.
It has low start up costs of a one-time $49.95 product activation fee (as of this writing). I put multiple products on sales using a single account.
It also shields me from need to have a merchant account. That means, I receive payment from it for my sales proceeds after deducting the fees.
Clickbank not only allow credit cards, but also accept payment through PayPal.
The other advantage is that it has more than 100,000 active affiliates and have a global reach. From my experience, I have many affiliates promoting my products without me having a direct contact with them. I believe they found me through the marketplace where my products are listed.
Using it to sell your digital books starts by registering a new account. It will takes a few minutes to complete the registration process and obtain your password to get started. You can upload your content and determine the list price (retail) you want to charge for the book. Your payment is based on a percentage of the total price and it receives a share of the sale as well.
Once you upload your content, set the price, and pay the one-time product activation fee, your electronic book is promoted to the marketplace.
ClickBank has successfully sold hundreds of thousands of ebooks and digital products through their system.
You can test drive the process of self publishing for your first eBook and you'll soon be working on more books to sell through the system.
From my own experience as a publisher, it provides good customer support to publisher.
You can start selling your digital books anytime by accessing the website and registering on the site. Once you complete registration, you are ready to upload your content and watch it soar through the system for publication within a matter of days.
Seeing your digital book in publication will give you the inspiration and desire to write more books and you'll be glad you took the time to explore this resource.
