1

Choose your topic and audience

Define a specific topic and who you're writing for. 'SEO Guide for Photographers' sells more than 'SEO Guide'.

2

Create your structure

Organize your ebook into chapters (5-12). Each chapter should cover a complete subtopic.

3

Write the draft

Don't stop to edit while you're writing. Get all the content out first and edit later.

4

Edit and review

Review for clarity, eliminate redundancies, and make sure each section provides real value to the reader.

5

Design in Canva

Use Canva's ebook templates to give it a professional look. The cover is especially important.

6

Include visual elements

Add graphics, tables, screenshots, and infographics. Text-only ebooks are less appealing.

7

Export and publish

Export as a high-quality PDF and upload it to Crealo with a compelling description and mockups.

Write the way you talk. Ebooks that are too formal or academic connect less with the digital audience.

Include a CTA at the end of your ebook inviting readers to your community, course, or next product.
