Does Essay book need a bibliography?How to make money by writing it Online?Printed?--106.223.83.37 (talk) 04:30, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Do you mean a book stating your opinions ? If so, then online that could be marketed as a blog. If your opinions are utterly fascinating to others, then you could sell advertising on your web site (and setting up such a web site is fairly easy, so you could do it yourself, or use an off-the-shelf setup). Advertising might take the form of putting links to your web site as comments on similar blogs.
For the printed version, you would need to find a publisher. Again, if your opinions fascinate them and they think people will buy the book, then they would work with you to put it in final form, advertise it and distribute it. StuRat (talk) 09:55, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Print on demand and Self-publishing might also be useful to look at. Tevildo (talk) 17:24, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
