Other Services and Partners

Many of our clients are independent authors or small publishing houses who may not have all of the resources they need at their disposal. Sometimes an author has written a great book, but does not know where to start looking for assitance in self-publishing and marketing.

In addition to our premier eBook conversion and consulting services, eBook Architects has teamed up with some of the most creative and effective businesses in the industry to offer you the help you need to make your eBook and/or print book succeed.

Kindle Formatting

eBook Architects offers tips and information for authors and publishers who want to publish on the Amazon Kindle via the website KindleFormatting.com. That site is also the home of Joshua's book, Kindle Formatting: The Complete Guide, which is the most comprehensive how-to guide to Kindle eBook development and publishing available.

Indexing

eBooks and Print books both benefit greatly from the inclusion of subject indexes. If your book already has an index, it can be integrated into the eBook versions we create for a minimal fee (more info). If you do not yet have a subject index, we have partnered with Maureen Johnson, a professional indexing expert, who can create the best index for your books for a great price. Not conviced your eBook needs an index? Interested in seeing what the cost would be for your book? Find out more...

Proofreading

Proofreading and error-checking a book can be a time-consuming process. Proofreading through ErrNET, an automated proofreading service, is available to any of our eBook development clients for a flat fee of only $40. Find out more...

[NOTE: This is not a copyediting service. It uses an automated process that finds extensive grammar, spelling, style and punctuation errors, but it will not offer suggestions on your book's content, and it does not provide a replacement for the work of a professional editor.]

Interior Typesetting and Copyediting

If you are preparing your book for self-publication, professional typesetting and copyediting are crucial to your book's success. We have teamed up with 1106 Design, a leader in typesetting and other print-related services, to offer you great deals on getting your book ready for print. Find out more...

If you are looking for a full-service publishing company, we heartily recommend Wheatmark Book Publishers. In addition to interior design and copyediting, Wheatmark will take your book from manuscript to bookstore, with better royalty rates than any big publisher. They are a great resource for independent authors, adding marketing and distrbution to the types of services 1106 Design offers. And their Great Expectations program provides you with even more value when your book succeeds.

Audio Books

High-quality audio books can be a great benefit to authors, but good services in this area are hard to find and production costs can often break the bank. We are pleased to partner with Authors Digital, an affordable audio book production company that also offers distribution to audio book retailers and even the possibility of author narration.

Despite the well-known warning, we all judge a book by its cover. Whether you are writing an eBook or a print book, the cover is one of the most important investments you can make. Find out more...

Marketing

Book marketing is intimidating, especially for indepentent authors who are publishing their own books. When you add the complexity of selling eBooks in various formats and taking advantage of the social web, the thought of constructing a marketing program that will work can appear to be an insurmountable obstacle. eBook Architects highly recommends the publicity services of PR by the Book.
