Before you sell any book on the Internet, you need to understand right away that selling books that can already be downloaded for free is very difficult. To sell such books, you must at least post them on a mass resource specialized in such topics (for example, http://www.ozon.ru ). Moreover, the books available for sure on such resources have already been posted. But even with luck, and the book will be posted, it is still not a fact that someone will buy it.

More chances to sell a book on the Internet promise its originality, inaccessibility. Also in this regard adds the chances that this is a personal book. But if the book is not yours, and theoretically could be posted on the Internet, you need to make sure right away that it is not available for free. It is advisable to check this using any search engine.

Before you sell the book, which is not yet available in the electronic version, you need to deal with its advertising. Any book has its own theme, so it is advisable to publish an announcement about the appearance of an electronic version on thematic communities, forums, groups, portals, etc. Moreover, you still need to write an announcement, and even better a few pages for review. In case of interest, you can either continue PR (create a page on the Internet, a group on a social network), or start a sale.

Sometimes books are paid and downloaded directly from sites immediately, not wanting to spend time searching for a free version, so it’s best to sell both on public resources (for example, http://www.litres.ru ) and thematic. Also, the book can be transferred to other formats (for example, for mobile phones, PDAs, etc.) and, accordingly, sold on wap-sites.
