Choosing the Best Self-Publishing Services



With the changes in the publishing industry over the past few years, many authors were able to publish bestselling books. However, few chances are given to new authors in getting a publishing contract. Letting new authors be in the tight spot in looking for an ideal publisher and, increasingly, self-publishing became the best opportunity to get their books in front of readers. 

With self-publishing, you can become an agent of your own success!

A self-publishing company offers authors more opportunities and a wider array of options giving them the freedom to choose suitable terms for them.
What are the best parts from these self-publishing services?


  •    Control

You are in complete control on every aspect of your book and its entire process like the design, graphics, cover, title, etc.  You have a greater chance of succeeding since you’re committed in advertising it rather than handing it to a publisher who has hundreds of titles.

  •    Rights

You’re able to retain your rights on your book unlike traditional publishing where you have to give up your rights to them.
·         Revenues
You receive revenues (100%) from the sales of your books. Oftentimes, you get paid more quickly compared to conventional publishers where system is somehow delayed.

  •    Marketing

You decide on how to market and distribute your book into stores and ultimately into reader’s hands. You also set the price of your book or the giving of discounts and giveaways. Hereby, determining how much will you earn in each sold copy. Nonetheless, you are also responsible if anything turns out the other way around.

  •      Time

Since you pay for everything-design, editing printing, advertising, etc- to get your book published, so it doesn’t take that long before it gets to the market. If you work hard, then your book will definitely be in the market within months. 

Despite the good services offered, there are other self-publishing companies who are involved in vanity publishing. You should be vigilant enough and avoid self-publishing scams otherwise; you’ll be taken advantage by these scammers and end up wasting your time and money. 

Whatever path you take, it is necessary to go in with your eyes wide open. Publishing and selling your books are in a competitive field and all the means have its own boon and bane. Be clever in weighing things so you can find a way which is best for you.
