We’ll be honest, we’re not experts when it comes to the design side of eBooks – but we do have design friends that can help. If you asked us what makes a compelling eBook from a content formatting perspective, though, we’d say:
- Include a table of contents so your readers know what to expect and what each section covers
- Break up the text with headings and subheadings so it can easily be skip read
- Use bullet points and lists to present information clearly and concisely
- Pick a nice font, and have generous spacing and margins – legibility is key
- Keep sections, paragraphs, and sentence short and sweet
- Add visuals to make the text more engaging
- Test the finished product on multiple devices – it should be just as legible on a phone as a laptop or desktop
