This depends. You don't have to waist any effort at all, if you outsource the work. You can find some good sources that will complete this for you for a fee. If you want to do this yourself, do it right the first time. Do not rush through creating the ebook or it will show a bad reflection on you for future eBooks.

A book can be published with only one page. But, you will see 100% refunds towards your book. Focus on good quality content and the pages will come naturally. Try to find some of the top selling items in the category that you plan on listing, and see how many pages they have. Want to be the best, try and follow the best!

Yes, you can enter your referral links in the report of book. You can link all your books together in each book that you right. You can list your website with a related product in your eBook.

Is amazon kindle area for info products a great way to drive traffic to what ever one wants to drive traffic too or is it SUCKS as an Idea for traffic generation ?

It is a good source if you have a good product. I recommend signing up for the free program where kindle allows you to give away your book for free for up to 5 days. You choose to run one day at a time or 5 days in a row. This is a good way to get your product in a persons hand in hopes they will follow your link. This also gets your booked noticed more quickly if more free downloads are seen.

Can one embed links in the special reports or ebooks for kindle ?

I would not say you can embed links. You should have a link that goes to your product page and you should see the same result.

I would not be taken in by the hype. There are a lot of things written about how a fortune can be made on Kindle - it can't. Expect a sale here and there, but nothing more unless of course you have written something groundbreaking that the world has never heard of.

You can make money on Kindle but I think you are approaching it with the wrong attitude. When one of your first questions is how little can you write, you probably won't find much success.

There are credible authors on Kindle offers 200+ page books for very reasonable prices, an unknown author with no promotion can't compete with a 10 page book at a similar price.

My advice is to try and change this mindset. Look at your competition and find honest ways to improve on what they do.

Money can be made on Kindle, but fiction is probably the best way to go in all honesty.

Money can be made with Kindle publishing for both fiction and nonfiction. It requires that you develop a plan for publishing. You need to take the time to choose a profitable niche. You must provide content that provides something people really want.

I suggest anyone interested in Kindle publishing should take time to learn all about it first. This is not a get rich quick scheme. It takes time, effort and good planning. Quality content is a must.

There are people that make great money from this, but they have put in the work. It could take up to a year before you start seeing decent monthly royalties. Look at this as an excellent long-term opportunity to earn income that can change your life eventually if you have a strong desire to help others.

Thanks for everyone feedback...!

Success with Kindle publishing depends on how well you promote your products. I have seen Kindle publishers promote their previous products when they launch a new one. There is a lot of hard work involved in the beginning but once you have sales coming in you can start outsourcing product creation and focus more on promotion.

You get out what you put in...if you try to skimp on the number of pages, that's going to hurt you in the long run.

I like to focus on at least 50 pages per book, and aim for more like 100-200.

One trend I see on the Kindle is that there are far too many people pumping out "books" just to pump out books and try and make a quick buck. Trust me, it shows and it won't work.

If you want to be truly successful on the Kindle, you need to write great books and market them (and yourself as an author) effectively and properly.

It's not easy but it's absolutely worth it.

I would suggest you think of it this way...

1. What market would I like to spend the next 2-3 years building leads, subscribers and customers to whom I will market information

2. With the options you come up with from answering #1, you look to discover the opportunities - what topics, questions, desires, frustrations do they have that you can help package solutions to...ideally you do not ONLY have $2.99 Kindle products as you won't get rich selling these alone.

3. Put together a product plan that includes a lead-in incentive, intro product and ideally a plan for a higher-end, back-end product over time.

With a plan like this you...

1. Start thinking about how you will dominate your niche
2. Offer a range of information to your buyers - some will bite on the cheaper products, but you want to offer them more if you can
3. You want to have a product in the $27+ range so that you can have affiliates (other list owners, blog owners, people with established relationships with your market) promote your products for you in return for $$
4. Kindle ebooks can be good lead generators - but you can't really sell enough to make a substantial income on their own (at least 99% of us can't)
5. The opportunities for information marketing are WILDLY larger outside of Kindle than their are if you JUST do Kindle. In fact, I would put everything else together and start making money before I would put a Kindle ebook out there.

How much should your budget be for Kindle project?

Everyone wants to be rich and everyone wants the easy money with minimal effort.

In practice, it just doesn't always work out that way. There are shortcuts but you still have to work at it and there will be an element of luck involved.

Your book should be as long as the topic needs. No longer and no shorter. I've seen Kindle books that were only 3000 words. But I'd say normally, they should be longer.

I don't feel comfortable releasing anything less than 10,000 words in non-fiction categories but that's just me.

It will take some work to market your Kindle books, as well. If you choose your niche right, though, sometimes you can start seeing sales right away before you start promoting.

Best to just start writing, do some more research on the promoting and just go for it. Let experience help you refine your skills.
