Default E-book resell rights. Please advise!

I am a newbie in buying and selling e-books and am wondering in what program are resell rights usually created. In other words in what format should I expect to receive the legal & authentic resell rights when I purchase an e-book that comes with resell rights.

Thanks a lot.

Default eBooks

Formats: EXE (executable files), PDF, HTML, LIT (Microsoft Reader), PRC (MobiPocket Reader), PDB (Palm eReader Software)…….

Authors that offer resell rights use a lot of formats. Probably the most popular I’ve seen are EXE and PDF. EXE are cheaper to produce and are nice do to the fact that the purchaser doesn’t have to have any other programs to open them…. The file is the e-Book.

One little helpful note: Don’t buy the first resell rights package you see… if you do your homework, you can get hundreds for a few dollars. I could go into the complexities of why this is so, but I won’t waste you’re time since you may already know.

The second “one little helpful note”: Don’t be lured into a package that offers 500 e-Books. Quality is most often better than quantity……… you will see many of these exciting packages have out of date material, many of the files won’t work at all, and I’ve even had a few freeze my computer….. Obviously I’ve purchased quite of few packages.

The third “one little helpful note”: It may be worth your time to seek out rebrandable e-Books that will allow you to generate backend sales and ongoing profits. You can personalize some PDF documents (eBooks)and EXE e-Books with your own links…… just do some Google searches and you’ll find them.

I hope I’ve helped!

Yes usually pdf or exe.

Keep in mind also that resell products usually contain dozens of the authors affiliate links to other products.

Why not buy a couple as a guide and then write your own!!

Default Marketing Your Own eBooks

Yes, that’s the ticket…

Viral Marketing: If you learn how to right your own e-books with your own affiliate links embedded within the pages, you can literally give them away and make perpetual sales for as long as the content remains relevant or useful to people.

This is why so many are so eager to give you resell rights. They want to encourage others to sell their e-books or even give them away as a free bonus! The same can be done with software or other digital products…

The end result is a win, win situation. People are getting eBooks to sell or give away, the readers are getting the content they want, and the auther is getting backend, ongoing income from the affiliate links forever...

It's a beautiful thing!

Shhhhh... don't tell anyone, this is a secret self-perpetuation mechanism:)

The comment with the Viral marketing is great! In fact there is a good Marketing Promotion technique to give something for Free!

Regarding E-book Packages with Resale Rights, I would
take a look to ebay.com, there are incredible cheap offers there. Just enter as Search term "Ebooks + Resale".
Good Luck!
Alex
