    Clickbank, Ejunkie, eBay, are all very good options, as well as right here on DP if it's worth it to the buyers. Lulu is not really an ebook store, but a hard copy store.

    If its webmaster-related, DP is where you'll find the most buyers. You can try Sitepoint too.

    Sold ebooks for 5 years via a sales letter, adwords, and an automated script to send it out. Made more than any other online ventures. It's a fully automated business. Once your sales letter works, tweak it to improve it. If sales go down, revert it back and try again.

    Thanks for the Kindle suggestion, definitely something to look into!

    I DO NOT recommend ebay.

    Yeah that's true its very hard to believe whether an e-book is genuine or just a copied type.
    I guess E-books are not really good in the market now.. I don't know but its only base on my observation.

    I think it depends on the niche - some books sell really well, and others.. well, not so much. For instance, I have this earn with proxies e-book site that is doing really well, but I've had other e-book selling sites in the past that had 0 sales - they were a complete waste of time! You need to write something that people would want to pay you to read - for webmasters, it's usually about making money online - I find that's what sells the most.

    I have been in the business of imports and exports since 20 years. i know its a painstaking business.This is the old school of business where u either buy and sell products or introduce buyers to sellers making a commission. I was wondering if I write a book on International Trade on how to set up and establish this business would there be buyers?

    Your comments would prove invaluable

    Regards

    Hello,

    Yes, there is, of course, a market for ebooks. A well written ebook with a well written sales page can help you earn a lot of money.
