You just need a great concept, the ability to write it or to hire a writer, and the right software.
"Ebooks can be easily updated. As information changes, ebooks can be updated without a second print run. All you need is to go into your original creation and modify the text or graphics. Because of this flexibility Ricardo Rodriguez Switzerland Jersey , ebooks can change and grow as fast as you can type.

Nor do you have to shell out thousands of dollars for printing a self-published book. All ebooks require is a writer and appropriate software.
"Ebooks are great for Niche content. Ever wanted to find a book on a highly specific or niche product? Looking for tips on mouse killing? Good luck finding that in print. The costs are prohibitive and bookstores can't afford the shelf space. But with an ebook, no shelf space is needed so even the most niche content can find a place on the Internet.
"You have creative control over your ebook. You don't have to compromise with an editor or the publishing trends of the time. You don't have to haggle with a designer or wait for copyedited galleys to arrive by snail mail. You are in complete control of the design and the text.
