If you run an internet business, traffic is something crucial to push your sales. Anyway, do you believe that creating your own e-book is an excellent way to generate traffic to your site at no cost at all? Give your ebook to your visitors for free and see what happen! E-books or we often call it as info products are the hottest items on the internet right now. Your e-book may contain links back to your site so when someone downloads your e-book, you are creating instant traffic for your product or service. The problem is you have to write something interesting to have your ebook downloaded, and increase your traffic in turns.

But how? Just relax, I got some tips for you:

1. Choose something you like to write about. But don't just stop there. You also have to write something needed by many people as well.

2. You may write something that have a close relation to your product or service. If you sell guitars, for instance, you may write about how to play guitar or how to find out the best long lasting guitar. Go to any of the popular search engines and type in the subject of your e-book. Pick out some of the more popular websites and contact the website owners. Ask the website owner for permission to use their website and/or links in your e-book. This is a win-win situation. You get the information you need and it's free publicity for the website owner.

3. Put all of your html files/pages for your e-book in one folder (ebook compiler usually converts html into ebook format). If you don't know how to write html, you can use a WYSIWYG software to create your html pages. It's a kind of creating web pages.

4. Now it is time to put everything in e-book format. Fortunately there are some free ebook compiler software to help you out there. These are some free software you can try:

Don't SPAM! or you'll be blacklisted. Offer it as a free gift to ezine publishers. The ezine publisher benefits by offering great content to their readers and you get extra publicity.
