I am working on my first ebook. I was thinking. What is the minimum number of pages a good ebook should contain? Thanks.
Your eBook should be as long as it needs to be to teach your readers what they will need to know. There is no reason to add filler just to hit x amount of pages. I have 3 eBooks, one is 5 pages, another is 10, and yet another 87 pages. It all depends on your end goals.
Agree with Gallito, the number of pages is really no reflection of the quality of the product. You can get a lot of crap ebooks with heaps of pages but contain a lot of filler and then you get some which are straight to the point.
Just make it worth the money customer pays for. I have one product that have only 29 pages but the refund rate is extremely low. Personally, I think it has high quality.
Quality over quantity works best from my experience. At the end of the day, the buyer wants a solution to their problem/wants to learn something. If you deliver that info, it doesn't matter how many pages it is.
It seems to me that you are just trying to make quick money. You will have to stop for a second and rethink what you are doing - I promise you that no succes will come out of a sloppy product - merely refunds...
Making your ebook is a dream. It makes your name. Adds to your fame. Do not ruin it with a crappy product. If you want to earn money, become an affiliate. Afiiliates earn a lot. There is no doubt about it.
