Choosing an eBook Publishing Package


Having an eBook is all well and good, but without eBook publishing no one will ever see it. You will need to make sure that you have a good publishing strategy to make sure your eBook is successful. While self publishing is certainly an option, it is a time-consuming and complicated process. It is better for most people to hire someone to publish the eBook for you.

There are a lot of publishing services out there, and choosing the right one can be difficult. One of the ways to narrow down your search is to look for the best publishing package. In addition to finding the best price, you also want to make sure that you are getting all the services that you need in order for your eBook to be successful.

The first thing to look for in a publishing package is what formats are included in the package. For a truly successful eBook, you will want to publish in Kindle, Nook, and online formats. The more formats that are included in the package, the better off you will be.

The next thing to look for in a package is layout and eBook cover. These should be included in the cost of publishing. You will want to make sure that our book has a professional and eye-catching cover. The layout should also include professional layout for the pages of your eBook so that it looks and reads like a regular book.

You will also want to look at distribution and registrations. You need your book to be published and registered with all the major distribution sites, including Amazon and Sony. Having a presence on Xlibris is also important. All of this should be included in your publishing package as well. There are over two thousand online retailers for eBooks, and the more places your book is listed the more successful it will be.

It is also important to look at the turnaround time for publishing your eBook. Many publishing services have turnaround times of months. However, the best services can get your book published in fifteen to sixty days, depending on the distribution methods you choose and the turnaround times offered by the sites where the book will be registered. The most basic packages should be complete within fifteen days, while the most complex packages will take closer to two months. However, a turnaround time of any more than two months is really unnecessary.

Finally, you want to look at the professionalism and experience of the service. The more that service does for you the better, so that you don't have to have any worries about the publishing of your book. Everything should be included, so that all you have to do is present your completed eBook to the publisher, and they do the rest. All steps should be approved by you before moving on to the next step, so that you know the layout and cover are appropriate. In the end, eBook publishing should be fairly painless if you find the right service and package.
