I have to agree with Pinger and Gringo on this one. From the beginning, it was quite obvious that you were going to fail on this first attempt. Your attitude was one of "Oh, I can't do that, I guess I just suck" instead of "I can't do that well, but I'm not going to accept mediocrity so I'll...

It all depends on if you want to be entirely profit minded or not. Content is important as people will refund shitty books, and on the other hand will keep it if it is good. However, before that even happens, they have to be able to find your book. Good content or bad content, it doesn't...

There is absolutely no way to tell. Obviously the more free downloads you get you can expect more sales, but the numbers are in no way correlated. This has a lot to do with the "freebie" mentality. Lots of people download something just because it's free. They may read a little bit of it or...

On Kindle keywords are key. Not worrying about them on your first book will surely lead to some disappointment when the sales/downloads are not rolling in. Always research your keywords. Second, kindle is a numbers game. Erasing and rewriting takes time that other authors are already using...

Regi (owner of solomid) says he brings in an upwards of 50k a month from ads, and that was a couple years ago. Adblocker blocks their main ads, so that could be why you don't see them. Starting a site like that is possible, but to be successful you have to build a brand. Do most people in...

OP is not going to give you his writer guys...as far as separating the gems here's a quick tutorial. 1. Draft a contract. Outline all your wants and expectations, be sure to include a plagiarism disclaimer as well as a ghostwriter agreement 2. I personally have never had any success with any...

holy shit man that was even worse. Goodluck though! Anything is possible with the right mindset and tools

Odesk, elance, and freelancer are your best bets. Sifting through all the applications and testing potential writers is a job in itself, but once you find one you like you can negotiate the price down on the promise of future work (series etc) Writers are happy to work for 30$/7-10k story with...

Interesting as I am doing much of the same thing. What are you pricing your books at? Also, are you submitting them to free promotion sites or just running the free promotion alone? following!

You don't, I assume. OP is talking about promising a 12 month card by sending them a "free" 7 day trial which they will then send you $10 for the 12 month card because they trust you. You then pocket the $10 and walk away. It's a scam. Correct me if I'm wrong?

I know I'm late to this but I thought I'd give it a shot anyway. As a student, I realized a lot of reports I've written can be tweaked slightly and put into book format. To test I took a detailed how-to guide I wrote for one of my classes and threw it up with a self-made cover (photoshop)...

That's always gonna be a risk, find one that looks reputable. That's if you wanted to become a gold farmer. This method involves simple reselling, buy gold and sell it higher, which is much preferable to being a farmer.

That depends on what game you are talking about. A quick google search "______ gold for sale" should bring up a multitude of results.

Cool idea. Many farmers sell gold cheaper when you buy in bulk, so queue up a few orders, buy big and make even more money!

ahh, didnt see that. deleting :)
