Selling an Ebook Ebay Or Amazon

[Joe S.]

I am thinking to sell a Ebook.

Just a bit confused which platform would be the best to sell.

Either Ebay or Amazon. Because both of them are good.

But I am much attracted towards Amazon.

Or else I go for Both.

Let me know Who is working the same

Why not sign up and use both. The worst that can happen is you have too many sales

I agree with you, sign up both can get more opportunities to increase more sales
For me, I will choose Amazon for selling ebook because it's more popuplar and good site for selling ebook.

Just two cents :rolleyes2:

Keep in mind, on eBay, you can only sell eBooks in the Everything Else > Information Products category using only the [URLnf="http://pages.ebay.com/help/sell/classified.html"]Classified Ad[/URLnf] format... This makes eBay not nearly as ebook-friendly as Amazon.

You cannot sell digital products on Ebay. Go with Amazon, but don't depend on Amazon for your promotion. It's nice having your book listed, but if you want to sell it promote it yourself as well. Amazon now offers a higher commission if they have an exclusive. This means your order link should go to Amazon, but point people to a presell page first so you have greater control of your link. Remember, once someone leaves your site you lose control. That's why I even use redirects from my site as well even as an order link. It helps me to track and if Amazon ever changes it's rules like it almost did to Hawaii, I don't have to change 1000 links just the one.

I prefer Amazon. With Amazon, i get way better prices and way better sales volume . Ebay's feedback system is slanted .

The best thing to do is know your target audience and market to them and that goes for saying that you want your ebook to be every where but if you actually think about it you will make more money if you provide your ebook to the right people. its not about sales but giving the customer what they want and then you will see the money roll in.
Good Luck.
