Overview

Self publish your own books. I would like to see more emphasis on books for sale on the home page to attract buyers.

 

Hosted Shops: Yes


Designer:
You must download their book making software, design the book, then upload the finished document. The software does have a nice range of book layouts and makes designing your book easy.

Ease of use:
Quite easy

Marketplace: Yes
I have a feeling that they don't promote their marketplace, they are only interested in getting new authors.

Forums:  Yes


Sample prices:
100 page b/w 5x8 paperback - $6.95
50 page color 8x10 softcover - $24.95
