As far as I've seen, most ebooks from major publishers that have a version number have some variant on 0 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 or text that reads First/Second/Third Printing date. Most self-pubbed ebooks don't bother since the author probably is not looking far enough ahead to make a new version necessary.
As for a proper place for the copyright page? Can you let us know what standard states that immediately after the title page is the one and only correct page for the copyright page? Or is this yet another confusion between IMO and it's cast in stone?
I just checked 24 physical books. 12 of the had the copyright page between the title and half title page, 6 had the copyright page after the half title page, 5 had the copyright page after the dedication page and 1 buried the copyright page at the end of the book.
