Writing eBooks is one of the most profitable things that you can do
online especially if you have that flair for writing or you are an
expert on some topics or you have some valuable ideas that you want to
share to the online world. However, if you are thinking of making some
serious money on making eBooks, it is also important to consider how you
can make a good eBook cover design that would sell as well.


Indeed, you need to make eBook covers as well even if you are just
selling digital products online, but of course, writing eBooks and
selling them online save you a lot of money from printing cost and that
itself is an advantage of this business.


If you are thinking of venturing into writing your own eBook and
selling them online, you might find it important as well to learn how to
make a great eBook cover design for your product. Here are some tips
that may also help you sell it.


- Choose an eBook cover design that best sells your content. Of
course, before the customers can appreciate the contents of your eBook,
they will be first met by your cover design and in how your book is
presented. You can actually make a good impression with your cover and
can go a long way after that.


- Make your cover attract attention. You may want to check out some
book cover design on your favorite bookstore and check out what makes a
difference between covers that get the reader's attention most. Find
attractive book covers that is relevant to your eBook topic though.


- Think about uniqueness. Although you may need to get ideas from
other great book covers, do not copy. Make your own and make it unique.
Of course, if you have your cover closely resembling other bestseller
books and eBooks out there, that would eventually turn off readers as
that alone may indicate that your eBook lack originality and may even
put a bad impression on the contents as well.


- Decide on a cover picture that will get your reader's attention
even before getting to the contents of your book. But of course you have
to make sure you have a picture that represents the very topic of your
eBook. You may be tempted to put your face on your eBook cover but if
you are not yet established as a writer, you may want to start first
with pictures and graphics that are relevant to your subject.


- Make your cover title sell. Aside from the cover picture, how you
present your title is also important. You can make use of colors that
make a statement. If you have an eBook on weight loss, you may need to
think of a title that grabs attention and you may also decide on a font
size and type that draws attention fast. You can also use the color red
for your cover or your font to urge your readers to take action and draw
them to the idea of picking up your eBook and reading it.

Great, a great cover really goes a long way...a great brand manager or creator would do.
