Hiring publisher for your PDF ebook

If self-publishing a book seems like too much trouble for you, you may consider using a service provider that will publish the book for a fee. You can view a list of suppliers at (https://www.lightningsource.com/ResourcesLinks.htm#AuthorServicesLinks) They offer various programs and some services.

One good example is the iUniverse (http://www.iuniverse.com). For $ 459, iUniverse will take your electronic PDF document and creates two editions: the printed paperback edition and the PDF e-book file. iUniverse assigns ISBN, design cover graphics, and lists of your books with Amazon and Barnes & Noble. iUniverse will pay you 20% royalties for every book sold minus book for shipping and handling.

It's quite difficult to know how much you would receive for each book sold. If iUniverse sell your book for $50 suggested retail price, Amazon will pay iUniverse 50% ($25). Let us assume that the costs of shipping and handling $ 2, leaving $ 23. From there, you get 20%, or $ 4.60.

Hello,

Ebook publishing is the easiest and cheapest way to get your writing in print today. E-book is short for an electronic or digital books. An e-book is the digital equivalent of a conventional printed book. Thanks a lot.
