I saw 10 page ebooks on clickbank. Seems more like a brochure not an ebook :)
What do you consider average or "normal" ebook size. How many pages?

A book should be however long it takes to convey the message or information you are saying that is in the book. The more pages the more perceived value, but there is no average or standard.

Yes thats ofcourse true. But looking from the surfers view. If he buys ebook for 69$ and gets only 10 pages of "book" he might get upset and chargeback.
You can give all the concentrated info in 10 pages and you can give the same info in 20 pages ( extra 10 being just for the sake of content and not so valuable). I am interested is it worth to add more text/content as possible for the sake of having bigger book. Happines of the buyer wise :innocent:

That's not true if he is happy with the information and his answers were answered.

I consider a normal e-book size to be no longer than it should be. If the book provides what it promises - in easy to follow steps - then I am OK with it. Usually, for me, that is 60 to 80 pages.

I (and my printer) really hate e-books that try to "overdeliver" (many hundreds of pages). Usually these e-books have nothing to tell and jump from one idea to another without much cohesion (the exception proves that rule).

I read somewhere that a document that's only a few pages should be referred to as a report and not an ebook :book:

I agree. If it's say under 20 pages it should be classed as a report. I have many "report" style guides which I write purely as an incentive when promoting other products.

Just looked through few ebooks of clickbank ( well most of them are not worth a read anyway)
Both had 100+ pages but if you took down 98 of them you still could make the same point..
One of them was get G ads free, another one I dont remember

So the idea is to make a point in few pages and bullshit extra 90 to make it big :D

If the customer isnīt happy with what they get they have 56 days to get a refund. If the refunds are frequent CB would probably drop the product.

You need to make a good ebook. Forget about adding filler to an ebook. Make sure the ebook is worth what your charging. You want repeat customers.

The persuasion ebook I'm selling at Clickbank has 229 pages of useful info. The length doesn't matter though; what matters is that it is beneficial without the fluffs and unnecessary time-wasters.

I agree man. Even if all an ebook says is "Get off your f'ing ass, stop stalling by reading f'ing ebooks, and do some f'ing work and make some f'ing cash!!!", it's the valuable information that's impressed upon the reader's mind that really matters.

Wow, cool, I just thought of a cool idea for an ebook!!!
