Earn Money by Converting Books to Amazon’s Kindle
I have just learned how to convert my e-books into Kindle format so that I could sell them at Amazon. But I have also learned that once I acquire this skill, I could also earn money by converting other people’s books into Amazon’s Kindle. Just today, I’ve found 21 jobs available at odesk.com for that! It seems like e-book formatting is an in demand work nowadays. Estimated pay per my research is from $10 to $100 per book. I have also seen some available services for $5 at fiverr.com, though some of these only offer it at $5 for the first 30 pages of the book, and then you need to add more as the pages increase.
Hence, there are two ways by which to earn money by learning how to convert books into Kindle:
1. By offering your services at freelance sites like odesk.com
2. By converting and selling your own e-books at Amazon
To help you get started, you can download Amazon’s guide “Building Your Book for Kindle”. Once finished, you can preview the result of your work using the Kindle Previewer. Good luck to us! If you need someone to assist you in converting your e-books, maybe you could even hire me for it. 😉
Tips:
1. If you are finding it hard to remove many unnecessary formatting from your document, you can copy the entire content and then paste it to Notepad first. After which, copy from Notepad and paste to a new Word document.
2. If you have made too many carriage returns that you want to delete, you can use the Find and Replace function of Word. Just type ^p^p in Find and leave the Replace field blank.
