Can someone tell me (from experience) which font color they used (besides black) in a ebook they wrote to make it look more exciting, get readers to read the whole ebook (mine is about 80 pages), and among other reasons for it?

In addtion, can anyone tell me which font color (besides black) I should use for a self-improvement ebook to make it more varied and readable, and will make people want to finish my ebook all the way to the end (my main reason for asking this question)?

Why would you want to change the font color? Its widely known that black font is the easiest to read.

I would suggest creating better content...or just scrap the project itself if your readers can't make it past the first page.

Font color is definitely not the issue dude.

If font color does not effect much to readers then how come famous sites like senuke.com, marketsamurai.com, contentbuzz.com use that on the sale page? There must be the reason for it and in the same way I want to have the same effect on my readers for some of the sentences I will use a different font color rather then just black. So, isn't that a better choice since I am just copying expert sites like marketsmurai.com, etc.?

because, like you, they thought it would be helpful and were too lazy or incompetent to test.
 
I always use red font, with an orange background. That way it really captures the readers attention and makes sure they aren't going to be looking at anything else.
 
A site != a book.

Go into the next bookstore and take a look at font colors.

@grazie

I agree with you. Black is best and is very readable. Better content is definitely very important.
