I want to sell single poems on line how do i do it?

Question

i have poems on everything from religion to love and sadness and even one for a teenager i just want to sell a few not the whole book. how do i go about this online?

Answer 1

You could use triond.com, but you wouldn't make much money. There isn't really a market for single poems, believe me I've tried. You can try sending them in to different contests and such to make money off of them.

Answer 2

Just a suggestion, you might try adding a little art to your poetry.  Try selling it as poetry on art.

Answer 3

Even Poets Laureate don't make money from writing poetry....apparently (I read somewhere) loads of people want to write poetry, and lots do so, but only a small handful actually want to buy poetry books (or off the Internet).

You might be able to sell to Anniversary card manufacturers but I think they actually employ people to write verses - and also that may not be the kind of poetry to which you are refering.

Good Luck
