E-BOOK:
E-book is short for "electronic book".
E-book uses either a computer, mobile device, or ebook reader to display long-form texts in book form.
Ebooks have multiple digital "pages" that people can navigate through, and are often packaged as a PDF document so they can easily be sent from one user to another.
Benefits of E-books
• Immediate Accessibility.
• Ebooks are extremely portable, able to be stored on a number of devices with no physical storage space associated.
• E-book can be use to generate or promote Sales
• The reader gets the choice to print the ebook out if they want to consume the information in a traditional physical format. Otherwise, the digital format is environmentally friendly.
• Ebooks are accessible with the ability to increase font sizes and/or read aloud with text-to-speech.
• They're also easily searchable if the reader is looking for something specific.
How to Structurize an E-book?
There's no set rule for organizing your content into an ebook.
It generally mimics the structure of a novel or textbook (depending on what it is you're writing about).
But there are some aspects of an ebook you should be sure to adhere to.
Ebooks have some system of chapters and supporting images.
Similar to a blog post, they also do well when further segmenting their text with subheaders that break down the discussion into specific sections.
What Can an Ebook Be About?
Anything. Well, within reason.
Ebooks are simply a marketer's way of delivering lots of critical information in a form their potential customers are most willing to read it.
No matter what subject your ebook takes on, research is a significant part of ebook creation.
Unlike short-form content like articles and videos, the content of an ebook is predicated on trust and evidence.
A user who obtains (or requests access to) your ebook wants the full story, not just the bullet points.
That includes all the content and testing you went through to produce the ebook.
Can You Edit an Ebook?
Nope. An ebook can't be edited once it's been saved in one of the file formats described above, so it's best to ensure you have an editable version saved in a program like Microsoft Word.
Making ebooks uneditable ensures the content remains unchanged -- both the format and the information -- as it's shared between multiple uses.
In What File Formats Can You Save an Ebook?
Ebooks can be saved in one of several formats. Depending on your end user, though, you might find a use for any of the following file types:
PDF
PDFs are likely the most well-known file type.
The "PDF" extension stands for "Portable Document Format," and is best for ebooks that are meant to be read on a computer (digital marketers, you'll want to remember this one). We'll talk more about how to save your ebook as a PDF later in this article.
EPUB
This file type stands for "Electronic Publication," and is the more flexible ebook formats.
By that, I mean EPUB ebooks can "reflow" their text to adapt to various mobile devices and tablets, allowing the ebook's text to move on and off different pages based on the size of the device on which a user is reading the ebook.
They're particularly helpful for view smaller screens, such as smartphones as well as the Nook from Barnes and Noble.
MOBI
The MOBI format originated from the Mobipocket Reader software, which was purchased by Amazon in 2005 but was later shut down in 2016.
However, the MOBI file extension remains a popular ebook format with compatibility across the major e-readers (except the Nook).
While the format comes with some limitations, such as not supporting audio or video, it does support DRM, which protects copyrighted material from being copied for distribution or viewed illegally.
Newer Kindle formats are based on the original MOBI file types.
AZW
This is an ebook file type designed for the Kindle, an e-reader device by Amazon.
However, users can also open this file format on smartphones, tablets, and computers.
ODF
ODF stands for OpenDocument Format, a file type meant primarily for OpenOffice, a series of open-source content creation programs similar to Microsoft Office.
IBA
IBA is the proprietary ebook format for the Apple iBooks Author app.
This format does support video, sound, images, and interactive elements, but it is only used for books written in iBooks author.
It is not compatible with other e-readers.
