Create eBook Titles with Impact:

A clever title is great if it is clear, but a clear title is always preferable. A shorter title is better than a longer one.

Your reader will spend only four seconds on the cover. While some long titles have succeeded, usually the shorter, the better.

A title is part of your eBook's front cover. Most buyers buy mainly because of the front cover.

Start with a working title before you write your chapters. Include your topic, your subject and use the eBook's benefits in your sub title if possible.

Here are a few tips on how to create eBook Titles that Sell:

• Create impact for your title - Check out other authors' titles by researching on the Internet as well as local bookstores. Your title must compel the reader to buy now.
• Include your solution in your title. Does your title sell your solution? Make sure it answers the question rather than asks one.
• Use positive language instead of negative.
• Make it easy for readers to buy. Readers want a magic pill. They want to follow directions and enjoy the benefits the title promises. For example, 101 Ways to Market your eBook can act as an instructional eBook for your readers.
• Expand your title to other eBooks, products, seminars, and services. Make sure that your title will work well with the title of your presentations, articles and press releases you'll need to promote the eBook.
• Use original expressions — a way of expressing one idea for your eBook — yours alone.
• Include benefits in your subtitle if your title doesn't have any. Specific benefits invite sales. For instance, Google AdWords: A Money-Making Guide for Internet Marketers, Business owners, and Individuals.
• Choose others' eBook titles in your field as models. Choose five eBook titles and covers that attract you.
• Be outrageous when you create eBook titles. People do judge an eBook by its title. It must be so outstanding and catchy it compels the reader to either buy on the spot or look further to the description of the eBook. Take a risk.
• Be your strongest salesperson self. Choose the strongest words, benefits, and metaphors to move your audience to buy.
• Titles DO sell eBooks. Include your audience in your title. When your title isn't targeted other famous authors' general titles get the buyer. Always make your title clear and make it easy for your audience to recognize they need your eBook.
• Short titles are best, say three to six words. Titles should spell out at least the main benefit of the eBook. This would make it appealing to your target audience.
• Experiment with your ideas. Use combinations of all sorts of ideas pertaining to the eBook to create an appealing title. Including a popular search term may also help.
• Use power words to compel someone to buy your eBook. This strategy is used very effectively in advertisements. Words such as “Free”, “How to” and a number of ways such as “101”, or “1001” are attention grabbing words.
• The title should generate curiosity amongst targeted audience. It should in no way mislead your reader.
