    Hello fellow DPer!

    I actually own a domain called www.ebookwebs.com
    As you can see, it about ebooks...
    i have coded the design but i somehow not sure how do i want it to goes.
    My idea was actually charging registration per month, and let user download unlimited ebooks.
    However i think that the plan is somehow not feasible.

    Some point that i have think of:
    1. Should i charge by per ebook?
    2. Or should i let user having a free download and earn by ads?
    3. Should i have a forum for user to discuss about the ebook they download?

    Any other idea?

    Might want to try a combination of both. Maybe registration comes with 2 free ebooks, then small fee per ebook the user downloads. Obviously the free version will get you the most downloads/customers, however the your traffic and resulting adsense revenue may not justify giving away the books for free.

    Probably best to test out a few different methods and see which yields the highest profit.

    Adding forums will definitely help. Interactivity is always a good thing. You can eventually start squeezing an income through forum banner sales and whatnot.
