Re: Re: Steps of creating ebook ? Att: Brenna Lyons

If you have Microsoft Word, you can download a PDF maker free and have it under your 'Save As' options.

I use Mr Site which has websites for £30 a year including registering a domain and a shopping cart.

You can set up a PayPal account and get the HTML of a buy button to accept credit cards too.

Hi All,

I'm still writing my book but did a test run using Primo http://www.primopdf .com/index. aspx

My document is typed in "word". It was easy to convert but it didn't allow me to open the hyperlinks.  I went back to all my "useful resources" and typed in the url.  That worked and when you click on the url, it takes you to the website really quickly.

I'm a little confused regarding the "steps of creating ebook".  Why do you have to go through all those steps if the software such as Primo converts the document?

I called godaddy.com re: websites.  I was first told "godaddy night" for $56/yr would work.  I could download the pdf and set up a paypal account.  Today I called to order it, but am now told I also need to have another website "shopping cart" $113/yr.  He said if I had "godaddy night", people could download the book for free.  I would need both "night" and "shopping cart" for what I want to do.  I would also like people to send in their stories, videos & pictures.

I don't know how they could download the ebook from "godaddy night" if I have a paypal account.  After the reader pays for it, they will receive the ebook.  Again, I'm confused. 

My friend just suggested youpublish.com (free).  Do you know anything about them?

Thanks a bunch!

Sandi
