Thanks for your response. Even the coin you mention, veritaseum, has more than doubled in value over the last few days! It feels like there are so many great opportunities out there and I keep missing the boat!

Hi there, I'm new to cryptocurrencies but would like to learn and invest in some coins. Obviously, I'm well aware that this is a very risky investment, so will only be investing what I can afford to lose. At the same time, risky investment brings the largest rewards, which is what we're all...

Hi there, I'm looking for advice on selling a website. I recently sold one on Flippa for approximately 40x the monthly markup, generating just shy of $10,000. This was way more than I was expecting and it has raised a few questions about flipping websites. Two questions spring to mind in...

Hi everyone, I'm UK based and considering launching an Amazon affiliate website. My experience with this is creating a US website a year or two ago, with moderate success (it was a small niche, but did relatively well, considering.) I'm considering investing in a larger, more ambitious...

My plan is to expand my current project and launch new ones in new niches. It is already mostly automated, fortunately. I want to diversify -- and I enjoy the challenge of earning from a new method -- just in case something outside of my control impacts me. I wouldn't be investing my whole...

Thanks for your responses. Uncutu, that is actually the thread that started it all for me :) Samxx, do you have any information about where to start with ad networks? I will have to look around and dig deeper. Does it require any technical skills? Thanks!

Hi everyone, I used to be a poster here around 2014/15 (mainly a lurker!). Since then, I've made good money selling eBooks, but it's time to start a new venture -- as well as continuing to grow my eBook business. I'm not sure how things have changed in the last few years and what methods...

No offense was intended when I say 30% of my income comes from borrows. My income is split relatively evenly between buys, paperbacks, and borrows. If you take your books seriously, I'm sure you can adapt. You might take a hit right now, but if you can regroup based on the new rules, I think...

Hi Morgadeshou, You're completely right about those estimates, it seems that around 0.57c per word is what most people are expecting based on last month's pool. Amazon usually add bonus funds to the pool, so it may jump up a little. I've read some of the discussions myself now, and you're...

I'm not 100% sure about the impact of the new changes, but it's my understanding that this isn't the case. If someone reads a 30-page book in full, they will earn only 25% of what I will earn if someone reads my 120-page book in full. I don't know how much you earn per page, but it might be...

Like dsaviour, I've lost thousands of dollars on failed outsourcing projects. In my early days, I saw Kindle as a numbers game, and started investing heavily in lots of outsourced books. Ultimately, though, if you want to own a Kindle business -- not just a smash and grab -- quality is key...

I've been dipping in and out of this thread every month. I have a main niche which I work hard on and I'm investing heavily to publish more and better books. Currently my four books in the niche make around $1000 which isn't too bad. My problem at the moment, which many others here might be...

Thanks Gringo, You're right, and I've actually clicked onto the "spin-off" niches that you mentioned. My main niche has potential to expand into two or three different areas, but it's been slow progress so far. I only use one writer to keep the voice consistent, so that limits me to sporadic...

Hi Morgadeshou, thanks for the response. I have already done a free promotion actually. I got a reasonable amount of downloads each day but no sales afterwards. I might run a countdown, but I thought that would require sales already to have much impact? I might give it a try though as I've...

Hi everyone, Just a quick update on my Kindle journey, as I've been posting sporadic updates. My first book published sold pretty well, usually between 10-12 copies per day on an average month. I've been slowly adding to the books in this niche, and each book has done alright, but less well...
