Good news - Google is raising the profile of ebooks

"GOOGLE and some of the world’s top publishers are working on plans that they hope could do for books what Apple’s iPod has done for music."

see the whole story http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,2095-2557728,00.html

infoebookstore update

Well, after another busy month my eBay listings are back up and automated. Sales are good since the relaunch and a 50p handling charge on each ebook is covering the fees meaning at least £1 profit on each one.

The Nintendo Wii Cheats ebook is also selling very well at £1.99 with full re-sell rights and free updates. I have just completed the first update adding 6 more games and additional cheats for two of the original games.

I have added more affiliate advertising to the ebook meaning that I can potentially profit from those reselling the ebook. Commissions from affiliate sales can be 75% of the sale price!

Other news! We have just booked a holiday to Turkey paid for by ebook sales! That is what this is all about, making a bit of extra money to pay for life's pleasures. :-)

And finally, I am in the process of buying my second property, completing the sale within the next week. I am finally going to have a proper study where I can set up a more efficient online business. The sky is the limit then!!!

All the best.

Happy New Year - what a Christmas it's been!

A lot has happened since the last post almost a month ago.

As stated, I relaunched the www.infoebookstore.co.uk website, hopefully making it much more user friendly and hopefully make more conversions.

I have taken the opportunity to mix ebooks which I have for sale with affiliate links to external ebooks (using clickbank, paydot or similar). Making money through electonic products is about diversification.

Following the frenzied release of the Nintendo Wii and the success of the PS2 ebook on eBay I decided to compile a list of Nintendo Wii Cheats and create my own ebook. I spent some time creating a user friendly format whilst ensuring there was plenty of affiliate advertising in the ebook. This means when other people sell the ebook, I still might profit from it.

This Wii ebook was the start of an eBay mess that led to me being banned for 3 days and all my listings being cancelled! Oops!!

I had previously listed the various different ebooks in related categories, i.e. ps2 cheats in "ps2 accessories", claim free land in "home; other" etc etc. A few times eBay had pulled me up on this and explained that they should be in "Information Products", so I changed them. Most however were not a problem, until the Wii Cheats ebook!!!

eBay didn't have a Nintendo Wii category so I listed it in "Games Console; Other", which really is no different or benefit to me, in my opinion.

What did they do for this "Crime of the century"? Banned me from listing any new items for 3 days. Well, that's what they said they were doing, but what they actually did was cancel all my listings and the automatic re-listing and restrict my access to my account! They did refund the listing fees, but the time it takes to set everything up is not refunded.

What I just can't get my head around is that eBay only make money from us sellers, nobody else and definately not the buyers, so why do they do everything in their powers to stop sellers selling? Morons. Mine is not the only example of this kind of stupid over reaction.

The big problem with eBay is there is no viable competition, qxl and similar have tried but they have no chance against the monopoly that is eBay.

Anyway, now I have bored you all with this story I am off to relist all my items for the next 7 days!
