Bought a copy of Ebook compiler yesterday for Pete to use compiling the ebooks we have been putting together. From what Pete tells me the program allows you to write an ebook in html form, complete with links and images and anything else you might wish to add, and then to compile it into an excecutable package.
So far we have got excellent content for two pregnancy ebooks, a baby massage ebook and also a childhood diseases ebook.
Ebook creation is another part of the drive to diversify promotion techniques. It’s a viral thing - they spread quickly by friends sharing them via email and even get sold on ebay. Also, selling or giving away ebooks through a site should satisfy Google’s ‘made for adsense‘ clause in the terms and conditions, which is something I am fairly sure that I worry about too much. Is a truely useful website with original, well written, information packed content whose only revenue model is adsense going to be considered a ‘made for adsense’ site? I think not.
