Yes, we are on a Mission and would like to make it possible for every author to publish their book as an e-book on our platform self-publishing.com without any hurdles.
There are only costs if you want us to create an e-book and/or book for you and distribute it on platforms worldwide. But it's very affordable.

If you sell your e-book via our platform, you will receive 100% of revenueonly Stripe as the payment processor charges its usual fees. You set the selling price yourself.

If we sell your e-book internationally, we do this via different providers, who all have different models for calculating the tax. What is the same is that for every sale, the VAT of the country in which the e-book is sold must be paid to the state. The retailers have standard margins that they deduct from the proceeds. To make things even more complicated, Amazon, for example, charges a transfer fee depending on the model and region in which it is sold, depending on the size of the e-book file.

To make it simple: With us you get 70 % of the net proceeds for every e-book soldafter deduction of VAT, retailer commissions and distribution fees - that's significantly more than many self-publishing platforms, without you having to worry about technology or distribution. We take care of the technology, metadata, store connection and support. You concentrate on writing - and receive the majority of the proceeds.

You can create your e-book in our dashboard, upload it as an epub or pdf, design and upload a suitable cover and enter all the information. Once you have created a Stripe account for your payouts, the e-book is ready to be checked and activated by us. It is then available at self-publishing.com in the Store and you can tell all your friends where they can get it.
If you'd rather have us do it for you, we'll take care of everything. We put it into a suitable e-book format, our graphic designers develop a great cover and take care of the entry in directories. It is also available worldwide in large and small e-book stores such as Amazon, Barnes & Noble, etc.

You can publish your e-book yourself here and Here we publish your e-book for you.

You can do that! Use our book publishing service and we can (if you wish) proofread the text for you, create a beautiful book layout and a professional cover. We take care of printing and worldwide distribution to booksellers and online stores.

You will receive 70 % of the profit after deducting the book trade discount and printing costs from each copy sold - significantly more than with traditional publishing models or many self-publishing platforms. And without any effort at all.

Of course. Everything that people do consumes resources and publishing books is one of them. It is important to us to give back exactly that (and more). That's why we not only pay attention to environmental compatibility wherever possible. The concept of print on demand is in itself very environmentally friendly because there are never any unsaleable books that have to be destroyed. For every 40,000 printed pages we produce, we plant a tree. This more than offsets the paper consumption and CO₂ emissions generated during the production and transportation of our books.

Yes, whether you just need text proofreading, a professional book layout, a marketing-worthy cover design or e-book programming and do the rest on your own or elsewhere: we'll help you where you need it. Here you can get help if you want to publish your book.
