What Has Worked For You?

eBooks with Amazon KDP - started with producing an eBook version of a couple of old out of copyright books, then went on to my own material. varying levels of success, but my latest (a technical book that I published a week before Christmas) has already earned $30 royalties without any promotion yet.
surveys, but the earnings from them are obviously lower than the potential earnings from the other methods (although I am lined up for a phone survey soon that will pay £70 for a couple of hours work).

GB, I'm sorry if the answer is elsewhere on this forum, but how do you go about producing an ebook version of out of copyright books? I want to write my own material eventually, but I'm interested to know how this works.0 -

The text of out of copyright books is available in a number of places on the web.
What I did was found two books on the same subject and packaged them together in the same eBook file. They aren't earning much, but each has earned enough to justify the hour of so that I spent producing them.
Self-written books will earn more, because there are a lot of people publishing public domain books.0 -

I have been looking at selling some affiliate products but most of them seem to be silly old ebooks like how to make a million on ebay that type of thing. I wonder what the top sellingaffiliate product is?0
