Why Its Important to Publish an eBook | KDP Amazon

In June, the Association of American Publishers announced that for the first time,  ebook  sales exceeded hardcover sales (not including children’s books).

Some will say that books are a thing of the past. That statement would depend on what you mean when you use the word “book”. The act of reading isn’t dying away, but rather the way we read that is changing. It is now easier to read  ebooks  because you are able to read them on an ereader, tablet, computer or phone. With apps that sync the book you are reading, you can pick up where you left off on a different device and never lose your place. No more bookmarks to lose, I personally like that idea.

According to the Pew Internet and American Life Project, about 20 percent of U.S. adults have read an  ebook  in the past year.  Ebook  readers usually read more books than readers of print books. Typical  ebook  readers read an average of 24 books in the past year, while those who prefer print books, read an average of 15 books.

The statistics also find that  ebook  sales this year have risen 49.4% in the adult books category, 475.1% in the children’s and young adult category and 150.7% in the religious publications category.

 Publishing  an  ebook  is less expensive than a print book, which means more profits for the author. Less expensive also means that you have a good deal of movement when deciding on the sale price of your book. Another significant benefit to  publishing  an  ebook  is there isn’t a need to carry a physical copy so your book will always be in stock and available for sale.

It’s possible to have millions of people reading your book within 48 hours of submitting it for publication. Without having to package and ship your book makes it a lot easier to sell an  ebook  then it is to sell a print book.

Even if you want to  publish  a print book no matter what, creating an  ebook  to go along with it can be a very good marketing decision. In a sense you will have all of your bases covered by offering the reader the choice on which format he wants to purchase your book in.

If you strictly want to go with the  ebook  over the print format you still can’t go wrong because just about everyone has access to a computer or ereader device and will still be able to read your book. It’s pretty much a win, win situation or if nothing else a very shrewd marketing decision.
