eBook Self Publishing Services
eBook production and distribution
Put simply, an eBook is a copy of your book reproduced exactly as it appears in print, ready for easy reading on a computer, eBook reader, mobile phone, iPod, iPhone or even an iPad. AneBook is an excellent promotional and revenue generating device and as such, is proving itself in every market both in the UK and USA, as a potent way to catch the attention of people browsing for new titles whilst online. It is therefore of little surprise that up to 70% of eBook downloads are translated into print purchases.

Self publishing your eBook provides a sure (and welcome) second source of revenue for your print book titles, in a contemporary, highly professional format (please see 'Options' below).
M-Y eBooks offer a return of 50% of the net revenue from each download sold of your eBook, which is accounted bi-annually. The author controls the normal sale price for each eBook download, however as a guideline we would recommend that you calculate the price of your eBook by the print price minus 35%.
When you self publish your eBook, you can expect to see all the information normally shown within the printed book such as the cover image and a short and long description of your work. In addition, you will be required to provide a list of 50 keywords associated with the book title, to aid best possible promotion of your book.
