Making money from ebooks isn’t automatic. You can’t just put anything in it and hope to profit. It’s not a difficult task, but you should follow some best practices to make sure your ebook draws attention from readers and generates sales. Just because you’re writing a book doesn’t mean you have to stress out.

This shows that there are some success stories with making a profit through eBooks, on the other hand these are instances that have around a 1 in a Million chance of happening. Therefore, in short, no eBooks are not a profitable business, but that does not mean that the 1/1,000,000 chance cannot happen to you.

The average self-published author makes around $1,000 per year according to The Guardian. That’s including many authors that have multiple books and a huge list of fans. In fact, nearly a third of the authors made less than $500 a year and 90% of books sold less than 100 copies.

Likewise, an ebook in a very popular genre could sell very well, since readers of the genre are always hungry for more. If you make $1 per book, you need to sell a million of them. That’s not easy to do… but if you have 10 books, you just need to sell 100,000. If you have 100 books, only 10,000 of each.

Self publishing on Amazon is also worth it if you can use the clicks and views that your eBook receives to boost another venture. But self publishing a book on Amazon is not a “home run” play by any means. The highest paid authors on Amazon have a series of books and have spent years building that up.
