I’m looking to publish my first e book, but I’m overwhelmed by the options. How do you identify the best e-book companies that truly deliver professional results? Are bigger companies always better, or can smaller, specialised services provide more value? I want quality formatting, distribution, and marketing without wasting money. Has anyone worked with e-book companies they’d recommend or had a bad experience? What should I look for before committing?

I’m looking for a reliable book publishing company but feeling overwhelmed by the options. How do you tell which companies are genuinely author-friendly and which ones just make big promises? Are smaller companies better than well-known names, or does reputation matter more? I want professional quality without hidden costs or loss of rights. Has anyone had a good or bad experience they’re willing to share? Any advice would be appreciated!

I’ve been wondering how much a book’s cover really influences reader interest. Can a professionally designed cover make or break a book’s success? For authors, especially those self-publishing, investing in book cover design seems crucial but is it worth the cost? Are there key elements that make a cover more appealing, or does content matter more than visuals? I’d love to hear from experienced authors or designers about how a strong cover can impact sales and reader engagement.
