Does anyone other than webmasters buy e-books?

    Just curious if people other than those trying to make a fast buck on the web buy ebooks. It seems like people on clickbank can make decent money (from what I read on DP) but am still curious because most of the people I talk to have never bought one on any subject.

    Maybe if you make one on simple money making ideas like using a ptc site average people may buy

    People would buy e-books on things like cooking if they are interested.

    Surprisingly most E-books are not webmaster related. Iv seen tons of cooking, automotive and biological kind of ebooks.

    Do you mean "any ebooks, on any subject, in general"? I sell them as an affiliate, so I can give you a solid YES.

    Yes, I was wondering about ebooks in general. I've never written one or tried selling any so I don't really know much about them. Generally when I ask "regular (read:non-webmaster) folks" about them, they don't really know what they are. Thanks for everyones replies so far

    Many people buy them and for some topics they can be quite expensive. I paid $39.95 for a fitness book. It was well worth it with 350 pages but I had to print the damn thing out.

    It is a good market if you come up with some good subjects.

    Yes. There are a lot of successful clickbank eBook products in subjects other than internet marketing.

    Well why you say mostly webmasters since many ebooks aren't related to it ...

    I think any internet user could buy a ebook someday or will be intrested
