How to Get Your Book Published Online for Free

by Carol Wilson

For some writers, putting a good plot, great dialogue and strong character development to paper is the easy part—the huge battle is actually getting their book published. If you have recently finished your book but are struggling finding a publisher to get your work out in the public, you may still be able to your book in the hands of millions of readers. How?

Use of the Three Most Popular Self-Publishing Electronic Companies–Kindle Direct Publishing, PubIt, and Lulu

While all three are different, they serve the same purpose—to get you the exposure you need through an electronic, digital medium. And did we mention the services are absolutely free? That’s right. All three offer free registration and you will still get all of the royalties you earn. You just need to make sure that you investigate all three options carefully since each venue caters to a distinct audience (and once you choose a publisher you must stick with it). That said, to learn a little more about each self-publishing e-agency, continue reading.

Do I Really Need a Separate ISBN for my eBook?

by Ron Ron Pramschufer

I can recommend  Ron Pramschufer’s approach to self publishing. He also has a great newsletter you must check out!

This is probably one of the most asked; least understood questions out there in the self-publishing world today. Technically you not only need an ISBN but you need a different ISBN for each format your ebook is being offered. If you are offering your book as a mobi, epub and a PDF, you need three different ISBNs. That’s technically. In reality, if you are only making your eBook available on Amazon, you don’t need any. Confused?

What is Self-Publishing?

Opinions vary about self-publishing. I self-published 11 of my own print and eBooks that are business books about book writing, self-publishing, and book marketing. Self-publishing is not a vanity press option, where you can get a company to get your family cookbook or anything into print. And Print on Demand is a digital printing offering, not publishing or marketing. While many choose it because they don’t know the downfalls of it and they get disappointed. I have offered discussions on Print on Demand at my book group at Linkedin.com.

Think YOU when you think self-publishing. YOU are responsible for all the things that you must do to get your book into the hands of your readers. YOU get an ISBN number for each book, which makes you a publisher unless you plan to only sell your book at your Web site. YOU can set up a publishing name/business as Dan Poynter advises since some book printers won’t work with individuals. But, you don’t have to.
