How To Profit From The Changing Economic Landscape Of Publishing

If you’ve ever dreamed of being a writer, then you’ll love what you’re about to read. See, in the old days, few people had a chance to make any money as a writer. The opportunities were slim. Newspaper reporter, paperback writer, war correspondent, the jobs were very limited.
But the world of publishing and writing is changing dramatically. More and more people these days are able to build their own websites for as cheap as three or four dollars a month. There’s tons of easy publishing programs out there make publishing your writing as brain dead simple as operating a word processor.
But it goes beyond blogging and expressing your thoughts on the latest political scandal. There’s tons of money to be made. As the Internet expands, so does the business model. It’s not good enough to have a presence online. You must not only sell online, but you also must continuously create new and exciting content.

Consider what it took to become a successful, self published author in the old days. You had to pay several thousand dollars to get your book into print. Not only that, but the price of your book would have been double or triple what other books would have been. On top of that, you’d have to quit your job, load up your trunk, and drive from bookstore to bookstore and beg the owners to put your expensive book on the shelves.
Nowadays, it’s free to publish. More and more authors are turning to Amazon Kindle to get their stories out there. It’s free, it’s easy, and you get sell your book for 99 cents. Marketing is as easy as creating followers on various social media sites, which are also free.
