Selling an ebook using info from my blog?
Last week I bought a Kindle book on another micro niche. I came across it by chance and realized it was by the same guy who's website I had read. I realized most of what was in his ebook was also on his website, available for reading for free. Now, his ebook was only $2.99 so I didn't feel that bad about it, and at least I have it all in one spot now.
At the $2.99 price point, I don't think a lot of people would complain - or would they? What if it was $9.99 or $14.99. Maybe even an audio book for that price too. To keep the value perception high, and since my information truly is hard to find, and 100% my own creation (no PLR or copied work, since there is very little on this subject). How would you feel if you bought a book like this? I've thought about making the blog private, or just offering teaser copy (like the first paragraph) and making the rest hidden. But that could seriously hurt SEO efforts - both the current SEO and for future SEO. Or maybe with some good promotion, exposure on Amazon, a few press releases, etc, it could be overcome?
Dan's content is irregularly read by handfuls of people. Join the elite few by reading his blog: dcrBlogs.com, following him on Twitter: dcrTweets.com or reading his fiction: dcrWrites.com but NOT by Clicking Here!
Dan also writes content for hire, but you can't afford him anyway.
I like to keep an open mind, but not so open that my brains fall out
