10 Hot eBook Design Elements That Every eBook Maker Must Know!

by Kieren Moran

 
Everyone would like to increase the amount of sales and conversions that their product achieves, and one very good way to achieve this quickly is by using highly effective eBook design methods. There are just a few things that you must be doing with your eBook to ensure higher conversions and fewer refund requests. Although seemingly simple, these eBook cover design points can be considered among the most important because they are the aspects which tell your web page visitor exactly what your product is about, and will most times be used to judge the rest of your eBook contents.

Since you want your customers to appreciate you new eBook both before AND after they have bought, it is recommended that you use good eBook design within the eBook layout also.

The Right eBook Cover Design

Three core values that your eBook cover design should present include a high degree of professionalism, enhancement in the viewer’s level of perceived value, and an artistic and presentable appearance.

There are a number of ways for you to make sure that your cover design is effective. You should not rush the creation of your eBook cover design. You are going to want an eBook cover design with a readable font style and size, an image that fits well with the concept of the eBook, and a design that is visually appealing without any clutter.

When readers see your visually appealing eBook cover design, they will be much more likely to trust that the content inside your eBook is authoritative, well written and professional, and this will create more conversions and more sales than ever before.

eBook Design

The inside eBook design on the other hand has a different set of requirements. You should include images in your eBook design, but they should be proportionate to the written content rather than overwhelming it.

Fonts And Ease Of Reading
When it comes to the font color used inside your eBook design, you need to remember that reading is tiring after a while- and so anything you can do to make the text easier to read will be appreciated. This means usually a black text on a white background is best, with few exceptions within text boxes and the like.

Interactive Table Of Contents
You should also make sure to include a table of contents for easy browsing, so that your readers can find what they are looking for without a hassle, and also make each section of it click-able using internal page links.

Easy-To-Maneuver Layout
A well written, well put together eBook design is one that utilizes readable fonts and colors, a solid and easy to maneuver layout and short pages in a font that is sized well not only for reading on a computer, but also for printing as well.

The average page of your eBook should be approximately 300 words, which leaves enough room for a chapter title and an image if you so choose. You should not include images on every page, as this can bog down the appearance of your eBook.

Print Your Book For A Refreshed View
To help get a much needed new perspective on your eBook design you should consider also printing a portion of it out onto paper. Simply seeing it in ink will often times trigger new ideas and help you make the changes you’re after.

Excellent Design = Higher Conversion Rate!
Having a well designed eBook will often help you attract higher conversion rates and sales online. If it is easy to tell that you have put much time and energy into your eBook then your customers will appreciate your efforts… leading to them telling others about your attractive and helpful eBook.
