Ebook authors... Information entrepreneurs...

need a hot topic for your next project? 

Today will be the last day you'll ever say,

"I don't know what to write about!"

If you need an IN DEMAND topic for your next ebook - something that people actually have an interest in - keep reading...

On this very page - (YES the one you're reading right now) - you'll see several web sites telling you exactly what topics have the biggest demands.

** (Don't be surprised if you happen to walk away with a $10K a month ebook idea...)

Dear Writing Comrade,

You paid $2K to have a top-notch ghostwriter pen your ebook.

You're a marketing genius, writing articles, running Adwords, optimizing your site for the search engines with the precision of a thesaurus weilding word surgeon.

You marvel at your awesome ebook cover, and the salesletter written by the most brilliant copywriter of the century.

And then you sit back and watch your bank account collect the biggest cobwebs you've ever seen.

A nice arctic splash of failure thrown slam in your face. And here's why...

You CANNOT go willy-nilly with a topic that nobody cares about, and expect a roaring success because you've done everything else well.

If your topic stinks - if it's not something that buyers hungrily anticipate - you've already lost the battle.

And that's the sugarcoated way of saying it.

Trust me. I know this from creating my own fair share of duds.

For years I struggled to sell my own ebooks. The experience was like trying to convince Donald Trump to change his coiffed up hairdo. Talk about a dismally unchanging experience.

My coup de grāce (the proverbial nail in my coffin) was that I kept writing about things I personally liked, and/or knew something about.

Poor me. SERIOUSLY poor me. I thought they were great topics. They sure seemed like it. In my head at least.

So I never did any pre-sales research to see if potential buyers were really interested in my topic choices. I just wrote whatever I thought was good, and launched.

Perhaps this is the road you've been taking as well. And as you've probably already guessed...

A bad choice in topics can essentially pull you down like a freakin' 12-ton boulder.

If you want to write ebooks that actually sell, there has to be a seed already planted in your prospects mind making them salivate for your particular topic.

Trouble is, even if you fully agree with what I just said, you probably still suffer from the "deer-frozen-in-the-headlights" syndrome when it comes to selecting an ebook topic.

For many ebook authors topic selection is like not being able to find your favorite $1K watch after you've already searched every nook and cranny... every trash can... every coat pocket... and every dresser drawer... with fine tooth comb, 5 times over.

It's there. (Crap!!!) You know it's there. (Double Crap!!!) But you just can't find it. And the fact that you can't find it re-e-e-ally disturbs you to no end.

That's why when I'm offering advice to my fellow ebook writers, I really create fanfare about topic selection.

For example, when I wrote Desperate Buyers Only in early 2006, I included a big meaty section on how to choose a winning ebook topic. In fact, I say more about picking the topic than I do about marketing.

My basic philosophy is that you seek out specific (desperation inducing) problems that people have, and create reports that solve those problems.

This way you always have the assurance that someone with said problem is looking for help, and is hopefully willing to pay for it.

My readers often say this way of approaching the ebook writing process helps them to focus more easily on a topic.

But in all honesty, this particular technique stumps a few people for one good reason...

If you've never had a specific problem, or you don't know anyone who has suffered with a specific problem, you might not know how desperate people are to solve a problem that you see.

So let's say you're reading through a mens forum and you notice that several participants are looking for ways to get rid of their man boobs.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that even if you've never suffered with man boobs, they can be obviously (visually) embarrassing for certain sufferers.

On the other hand, if you're a 20-year old guy and you run across a womens forum that mentions hot flashes, you might not understand the awful intensity of this menopausal symptom.

So it's quite possible for your ebook topic choices to be limited by what you know or have direct experience with.

And that's why I decided to make the topic selection process even easier.

Ahem... meet my sidekick, The Book is in the Buzz.

The Book is in the Buzz performs a single, laser focused task.

It shows you hundreds of web sites where you can learn what topics online users desire the most.

Normally when ebook authors want to know what information people most want online, they make a beeline straight to Wordtracker or the infamous Overture Search Term Suggestion Tool.

A little typing and a few clicks of the mouse will reveal hundreds, or even thousands of keywords that people are using, along with the number of times these words are searched for.

It's an easy way to do research. But it's also a heavily used technique.

I wanted to take this exact premise a step further.

To know what information Internet users really wanted, by tracking which pages they most frequently visited on certain web sites.

And that's what I did with The Book is in the Buzz.

This report reveals a whole world of niche-based web sites that will show you exactly what people most want.

For instance...

43 Things Zeitgeist shows a list of the most popular goals that people strive for. The list is based on responses from tens of thousands of 43 Things users.

The day I was writing this letter, one of the most popular goals was "learn Spanish." More than 6K people have listed it.

Do YOU have a hidden knack for teaching Spanish? How about a vocabularly trick that helped you learn 100 new words a day - and actually remember them.

If so, you could be on your way to targeting this market.

Certain content sites show lists of their most popular pages. AquariumFish.net is one such example.

Golf Online gives you a list of the most popular articles for the day.

Look in the right hand column of the National Center for Infectious Diseases web site and you'll see a list of the most popular topics on their site, as well the most often requested disease information.

Wanna write a diet ebook? Consumer Reports Webwatch recently offered a list of reviews for the top 20 diet web sites. See what works and what doesn't.

Popular investing site The Motley Fool gives you an indication of what's hot on their site.

Speaking of investing, Stockpickr! will tell you which investment portfolios receive the most pageviews on their site.

In Desperate Buyers Only I recommend writing about solving certain health problems. CureZone has a list of the top 300 support forums, categorized by the number of pageviews. Can you say "an-encyclopedia-of-free-research-at-your-fingertips."

Wedding Wisdom lists their most popular articles according to the number of pageviews.

And did you know that Big Boards has a list of the biggest forums online, showing both the number of posts and members?

In case you're wondering, Gaia Online - an anime roleplaying forum - is the current leader with 840,762,236 posts and 5,051,082 members, at the time of this writing. (If you know how to capitalize on this market, you've got enough market research in this forum alone to last you a lifetime.)

And that's just a taste of what you'll find in The Book is in the Buzz. This PDF report is filled with a whopping 287 similar resources.

You'll find sites that show you what's hot in...

• Business
• Finance/Investing
• Internet/Technology
• Health/Fitness/Sports
• Arts/Crafts/Hobbies
• Travel
• General Topics

Best of all, you'll find that at least 40% of these resources are updated on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.

So when you need another topic, you just go back through the sites listed in the report to see what's new.

The Book is in the Buzz costs just $19.95.

But the bargain goes far beyond the actual price.

I'm not going to insult your intelligence by telling you that you're accessing some 'secret' batch of information.

Whatever you find contained within The Book is in the Buzz is accessible to anyone searching the Internet.  

And if you had the time and the motivation, you could perform the exact same research that I did, and come up with the same information. That's the truth of the matter.

But even if you had the time, you'd quickly find that writing a report like this isn't a quick and easy, one afternoon research mission.

Finding most of this stuff was like looking for a needle in a haystack. And the haystack was the size of 1 million football fields.

It wasn't simply a matter of collecting every resource I laid eyes on.

That would've been easy. And this puppy would have been on the market a least a month or two ago.

You see, I'm not only a writer, I'm an avid consumer of ebooks. And I've got a day-to-day schedule that's usually filled from sun up to sun down.

So I'm not a big fan of bulky infoproducts containing a lot of filler. And when I write for my readers, I prefer to provide quality over quantity.

Finding appropriate resources for The Book is in the Buzz often meant I had to dig far beyond the first 10... 20... or even 50 pages in the search engines. Some of the best stuff was neatly stashed away underneath page after page of junk. (Gotta love those blessed search engines!)

Once I found what looked to be a quality resource, I had to do an internal check of the site to make sure the stats they provided were fairly up to date. That was the cherry on top.

So no... I didn't just slap this report together during my 1 hour soap opera break.

And this careful attention to providing quality - I believe - will give you a bright eyed, bushy tailed dose of inspiration in an area where ideas can either make or break you.

Yeah, yeah - sounds good.

But what happens when a thousand other writers have access to the same information. Won't it get overused?

The short answer to that is "no."

First of all, if I thought for one second that my own financial livelihood would be at stake by releasing this information to the world, you wouldn't be reading this web page right now.

And I say this because I know that the online world is full of people whose only claim to fame is their "I'm-gonna-do-it-attitude."

The number of people who actually take the steps to complete an information product is very minute. (A factoid I'm aware of only because I do sell products to writers.)

So if you want to worry about something, worry about writing an explosive ebook... or about penning a salesletter that would make the often imitated copywriter John Caples roll over in his grave and scream "Holy Smokes!"

Those are the worries that'll put some money in your pocket.

You know what happens when you want to have a book published by a major publishing house?

They make you send them a detailed proposal.

And do you know why they request a proposal over the actual manuscript?

The bottom line of the proposal - (and I heard this straight from the acquisitions editor of a major publishing house, whom I wisely treated to a beer on a flight to New York) - is that they want to know all about the demand.

"Demand equals dollars," he explained.

If you're an ebook author, you better believe that a major part of your profitability rests on your ability to generate in-demand topics.

Order The Book is in the Buzz today, and you'll see exactly what types of information online users want. Let the demand be in your hands.

To your writing success,

P.S. - The School of Hard Knocks is filled with writers trying to get their PhD in Successful Ebook Authorship.

And most of them are majoring in "when-you-do-the-same-thing-over-and-over-you-get-the-same-results."

You don't have to take this route.

Let The Book is the Buzz put you on the accelerated path.
