E-BOOK CREATION ... AND UPLOADING TO E-STORES
We have already talked about formatting for E-books which is a large part of the creation process but for some, the actual business of making the files and uploading to Amazon and the other primary E-stores is just too daunting. This is not to be taken lightly, there are several ways to do it and many of them are 'clunky' to say the least. An online search will reveal that different authors have completely different views and make different recommendations on how to do this.
At Verbum we have a set method that we stick to that works for all stores. Quite often it isn't always best practise to use the same files everywhere. We take this into account if you require us to do this part of the job for you.
To do the complete job we would ask you to have made your own accounts with the online stores prior to publication, and you would need to grant us access.
If you just need files making then we can create files free from errors that the vendors will accept.

CREATING YOUR E-BOOK FROM SCRATCH: this price INCLUDES the formatting costs, so if you require this, there no need to pay for formatting separately: Also this includes adding the cover and creating files in Epub and Mobi (Kindle) format £50
CREATING YOUR E-BOOK FROM SCRATCH AND UPLOADING TO ONLINE E-STORES: Included as listed above, and placing your book on Amazon including all the necessary descriptors that are required such as book description, key words etc. Cost: £75
For additional online stores there would be additional costs but as this can be done in a number of ways on bulk we suggest you talk to us directly. (There may also be additional costs if you need to re-upload your book for reasons that you decide after publication, such as critical amendments or 'changes of mind'.)
CREATING E-FILES ONLY (ready for upload from your correctly formatted document-files):
We will make you four files, Epub (for use on most vendors other than Amazon), Mobi (best for Amazon) and 2 PDF's one with and one without a cover – useful for certain publications as many vendors still provide an upload facility for PDFs for people to view who don't have any form of E-reader. Cost: £16
