Ebook Titles

by Eric Transue
3 replies
I am in the process of finishing up my first E-book. I'm really excited! It's taken me a while to start taking action like this, but the ball is finally rolling and there is no stopping it now!

My question is, how do you come up with an E-book title? I have several titles in mind, but are there certain keywords that seem to promote more user action than others? I am going to be charging for my ebook and I think the info contained is well worth the price I will be offering it at. However, I want to make sure I don't shoot myself in the foot with the title.

Thanks,
Eric

    xxpansion: if you are wanting reviews/ideas for an e-book title, it's pretty hard to do that without knowing anything about your ebook, or your offer/details...

    I think try to sum up what it is that your ebook is offering and see if you can summarise that into a title. You definately want to have your main keywords in the title if you can. The 'demand' that your ebook is going to meet, that is what needs to be in your title. Then you will catch a visitors attention with it.
