So if you have taken advantage of our FREE course How to Write an eBook then you’re ready for the next step. How to sell your ebook on Clickbank and why should I do so  is one of the most frequent questions I get. You need to get your hard work online and in people’s inboxes so they can benefit from your knowledge! I have an article written by my great friend, Nicole Dean, about Clickbank  and the advantages of using this very popular program for ebook publishing. She has been making money online a very long time. She knows her stuff. Enjoy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Clickbank.com has paid out nearly $2 Billion to online business owners just like you in the last 10 years – and that number is growing fast. Yet, for a lot of marketers, Clickbank has a bad rap. I’d like to spend the next 2 minutes showing you why you absolutely should sell your ebook on Clickbank.

Who does this article apply to?

* If you’re currently selling your product with a simple paypal button. Consider switching to Clickbank.
* If you have a shopping cart (like 1ShoppingCart.com) that you’re using to sell your products. Consider also setting up a separate page or URL where you sell your product on Clickbank.

Here’s why…

Diversification of your Payments.
You may not be aware of this, but PayPal.com has been known to “freeze” accounts while looking into them after they’ve been flagged by one of their employees. While Paypal.com is a trusted company, they do have to watch out for their own interests. So, if this happens to you, your account will not be accessible during that time. That means you can’t withdraw money, you can’t pay affiliates, and you can’t process refunds. You’re stuck. I don’t know about you, but I have bills to pay – which is why I recommend that you also sell products via a secondary payment method like Clickbank. They pay via direct deposit into your Checking account every 2 weeks, like clockwork. If, heaven forbid, your account gets flagged by Paypal – you’ll be able to pay your mortgage while getting it cleared.

Less Book-Keeping.
With Clickbank, you get paid weekly or when you reach a certain dollar amount that you’ve set. [click to continue…]

From my inbox:   How do I price my books?

As a full time bookseller and an online bookseller’s consultant this is probably the most common question I am asked outside of how do I know a book is valuable. There are several ways to find out the value of a book. The question specifically addressed pricing for the non collectible books. Well, on the field it’s a no brainer when it comes to modern literature. I use a scouting tool. It’s a PDA with a bar code scanner. This utilizes a data service that taps into Amazon’s catalog. They are basically the authority pricing platform when it comes to valuing your books. So it stands to reason that if you can take a portable pricing guide and use it in the field you’re miles ahead both on sourcing and pricing your books.

Now if you only want to price your books then you can determine the book value utilizing the sites I have recommended in the past. They are http://www.addall.com and http://www.abebooks.com and both are great sites to determine median prices. There are a few tips to keep in mind when pricing through a meta search site. First, you are looking at *asking* prices so you want to be sure you get to know which names are over-pricers. There are several people in the book selling trade whom overprice their books on purpose. You do not want to include their prices in your research. Second, find like condition; exact title including edition and printing of your book when comparing. If you are looking at a Livingston Seagull first edition verses a book club edition there’s a world of a pricing gap.

It can be a costly mistake to not know your book and its printing edition. Ask me how I know? Ha!
