    Well, the 2 best ways to promote ebooks in my opinion are good SEO and article marketing.

    Creating backlinks is essential if you want your site to do well in search engines. I wrote a nice post on the subject a while back, I suggest you take a look:

    10 simple ways to get backlinks to your site

    Another great way to promote your ebook is by setting up an affiliate program. Its not as hard as it may look and you'll have an army of vendors ready to sell your book for you, which is a pretty cool thing... You could also do a joint venture with someone who as a big mailing list related to the subject of your ebook...

    You could also release a smaller version that will be available for free to the subscribers of you list, encourage your readers to freely distribute it, and include links to your sales page in your book.This way, hundreds of people who have read your report and liked it will go back to your sales page and possibly buy your product.

    But I just had one question, are you selling your books are were you planning on giving them away for free to build your mailing list?

    I would also look into getting some simple, easy to ceate 30 seconds promo videos done as well. Google loves video, and you can submit to several different video sites using TubeMogul or something similar.

    Contact other affiliate marketer and offer them some commission and hire someone to write you original content about your ebook.

    Why don't you just sell it in the eBooks Section here ? or you could go get yourself a WSO thread on warrior's forum! Both work great!

    You should combine a few methods such as article marketing, youtube promotion/exposure, a few hubs on hubpages/squido, twitter and fb promotion, etc.Depending on your PLR ebook and niches (I assume your ebooks have PLR rights) you can do a good job.
