White Paper or Ebook: What’s Right for You?
White papers and ebooks allow you to present a set of tips or suggestions, or expand on a new solution to a problem. However, the difference between them is often tone, visual presentation, and length.
White papers tend to have an academic presentation and tone. They usually provide citations, references, and quotes from sources. They might even indicate an author, even if it’s ghostwritten. But so can ebooks.
Typically, they range anywhere from four to 10 pages. White papers may be equated with technology and science, but they’re used in all sorts of industries.
eBooks have a lighter, friendlier tone, The average length of an ebook is 12-20 pages, but those pages tend to have a lot of visual appeal and white space.
Some ebooks can be quite lengthy. One of my favorites is 52 Headline Hacks by Jon Morrow of CopyBlogger about headlines. It’s more than 50 pages.
Ultimately, the style, tone and format you choose is up to you.
