Hello Guys,

Come across many websites and seeing authors giving their eBooks away for FREE. What is behind this? do they have any benefits from that?

Why they give it for free you ask.

They are building an email list, which is a good thing. After they have a certain number of subscribers - but until then, they start being "friends" with their subscribers - the authors push affiliate offers to their subscribers.

It's simple as that. And it's a good way to make money.

Also, there is ample room inside the ebook to offer "upsells" to your readers. You can completely run an affiliate marketing empire using the free ebook method while building an email list to boot!

I know one marketer who completely pre-sold his platform through a free ebook offer. If you are planning a big new platform and would like to have a few members and resellers in-house before official launch, then this is a good tactic.

The Best Reason To Give Away Free E-Books

Why they give it for free you ask.

They are building an email list, which is a good thing.
Building a list is the absolute best Internet marketing strategy.
Giving away a free e-book (PDF) is often used as an incentive
for individuals to join your list.

But make sure your incentive is of high quality.

You can use a free plugin like PopUpAlly for WordPress blogs to grow
your list.

Once your list gets a certain size (say 500) you can grow it easily
through ad swaps at sites here

Any "How-To" PDF that adds value and is closely related to the
focus or theme of your blog/website is worth creating and
giving away to grow your email list.

GET STARTED TODAY. GROW THAT LIST!

Its apart of a large strategy that allows for greater customer generation. As stated above its for promote your brand and allow for you to reach your audience in a different way. Many ebooks tend to solve a problem and tend to lead customers to a link that get the author paid, or allow you get customer loyalty .
