    You should do some keyword research to see what topics are hot and go from there.

    Yeah, to add to that, Google Trends (just google it ;) ) might help you find those hot topics. Fill the need and desire with your service!

    What type of ebook business are you looking to create? Are you looking to create ebooks, publish them, within the IM niche or outside niches...there are lots of different paths to take! In general though, the info product model is a great concept!

    I also need some advice! What's better, to sell books via ClickBank or as Kindle books on Amazon? I am talking about short books (reports) with a price lower than $15!

    I can suggest you research so high targeted keywords and do ppc for those keywords.

    I think you should have some sort of section where people can list their ebooks for sale too. This will help bring in more potential ebooks and customers. You could charge a small fee for every ebook they sell in that section. My main point I guess is to be unique. Why would people want to come to your ebook store rather than the thousands that are up now. Just put yourself out there and have a unique feature. Maybe look into a rewards system for your customers.

    one thing I will like to ask you is the ebook site going to be free? If it free then you wouldn't have any problem getting people to visit your site.

    The OP is looking to start a "business" not a free give away website. Therefore he is looking for ideas for getting customers to buy ebooks. Anyway, it wouldn't be a bad idea to have a free section along with a paid section. Therefore you will get traffic and possible customers.

    The easiest and fastest way to get started with selling ebooks is to use the Kindle platform.

    You can upload your ebook and be in business in a few hours and it does not cost anything to get started.
