I Need A Favor -- Really, I do !!!
I need a favor from you, my peers here at the Wealthy Affiliate.
I've finally finished writing my first eBook for publication as part of my new Marketing Strategy. I've uploaded it to my hosting server and ready to go to work creating the Splash Page etc.
While I'm doing that however, I was hoping that some of you might do me the honor of proof reading the eBook and providing me with some information:
- Any spelling or grammatical errors that Word and I may have missed
- Comments and feedback on the flow of the content
- Comments and feedback on the value or usefulness of the content
So any comments or feedback (good, bad or ugly) would be greatly appreciated. I've reached the proverbial spot with this eBook where I've proofread it so many times I "can't see for the forest for the trees".
I'm a big boy now and pretty thick skinned, so please don't hold back... All comments are greatly appreciated.
The direct download link for the eBook is:

Any feedback you might be willing to share, can be emailed back to me directly at:
bryan@homebusinessreborn.ca
Thanks in advance for your time. I know everyone has so very little extra time and it truly is a precious commodity. So thanks for sharing some of yours with me...

Bryan I am on it now, and will comeback to you after reading anyway congrat, for the completion of new book.
Congratulations on getting your ebook written. You've done a huge amount of work and the passion for the subject comes through.
I haven't looked at your whole book, but I skimmed about 30 pages.
in my view you would do well to get someone to edit the book as a whole. (Obviously money could be an issue) However, you have quite a lot of sentences where your sentence structure is awkward and interferes with the flow of what what you're saying.
You often change tense mid sentence and this makes it harder for a reader to understand . This is just one example - but there are quite a lot.
p 26 - To me, this was awesome because I can get rolling and not have to pay anything until I hit the point where I was at least earning some sales to cover the monthly cost of the service. Until you hit 100 subscribers have all of the flexibility and power of a truly professional service without the cost.
In the future I would avoid using colloquialisms and I would reduce the number of adjectives.
Best wishes

Hi Beverley... Thanks for your feedback. I was just replying to an email from another member of the community who provided me with very similar feedback. As I mentioned to him, coming from a technical IT background, my formal writing skills tend to be on the weaker side. The content has always been the key element to anything I have ever written.
Based on you comment on colloquialisms, I'm guessing I'm missing the mark on my desire to write almost as if we were having a face-to-face conversation. So that's something I'll need to go back and adjust.
It's always good to get some feedback from other individuals who have the experience I just frankly don't... So, this has been a true benefit to me, thank-you.
Hello Bryan, Read your ebook. Offering my help. Great read one of the best I have read in a while, I found these corrections. Page 16 capital for Internet, 1st sentence. Page 37 Capital for Internet. Page 20 take the s off of kids. Page 58 page 60 changes font. The first 57 pages are easy to read because of the large font. Page 64 splash pages need capitals. Page 66 bottom line, i in internet capital needed. Page 67 splash pages, second sentence need capitals same as 69 1st and 3rd splash pages. Page 70 too.
Out of all your fantastic content you must be pretty proud of yourself thats some ebook:)
I would love a copy. email janeclarkarts@googlemail.com
Love your disclaimer and great tips for writing ads. I have found it's about 10% comeback so it was good to see you had done the research and I was doing ok.
Thanks for putting it out there and hope this helps. best wishes.
Well so far it looks great. I am on page 15. I will continue reading it the next day or so and will come back to let you know my opinion. I want to have time to check your links too!
1. I do think that it is very professional looking. Good job.
2. I do like your disclaimer. It lets you know exactly all a person would need to know.
3. I am excited to read more!
Will let you know more as I finish it!
Wow. I am impressed. I just finished reading about all the different autoresponders. I did not know all about them. So, I am learning and that is good for both of us! Other people will benefit from that information. I will definitely go through with something different than what I am using now (which is Mad Mimi) and also Google Feedburner. (Not, very good results at all)
I am so excited with this. I am even thinking that since I have 4 different niches. I may go through 4 different ones till I build up to the "big boys and girls". When I get this organized as to what is good for my sites I will come back and click through your links.
I am so excited for you! All I can say is good job again.

Bryan,
Great, good job which let to know info on building list, SEO, affiliate, and other opportunities on Internet Marketing.The content are excellent but if could keep short on some para not poor to your readers.
Found something which is right for 'his or 'this' on page. 8 on 3rd para. 'I’ve written his eBook specifically as....'.
I admire and congratulating you on your new book, and wishing you all the best on your working hard job and future venture.
