Advantages Of Digital Publishing in 2023
What Is Digital Publishing
Digital publishing simply means publishing anything by the help of digital means, through internet and electronic devices.
Long gone are the days when aspiring authors used to send their manuscripts to the traditional publishing houses and would wait for weeks to get an answer, often a rejection to publish. Now thanks to online publishing, and even self-online publishing, writers can get their works published online, that too for free on several platforms.
Why Go Online?
We ask, why not? With online digital book publishing, and digital publishing technologies,going online for free has now become a cakewalk. All you need is to find a suitable online publishing platform and of course, a work you can publish.
Advantages/Benefits Of Online/ Digital Publishing
There are so many advantages of digital book publishing, first one being saving a lot of time, costs and hassles. With digital self publishing you can even get your book published by yourself, like it’s on Kindle Direct Publishing. Most of these platforms are free, and not to forget, more and more readers are shifting onto eBooks than reading a paperback, less so hardcovers. So even the market today is online.
Traditional Publishing Vs Online Publishing
Traditional publishing once used to have it’s own charm, a complete team of dedicated teams who can help you, a physical copy of your book, and was the only way to become a published author.
Well, not anymore.
Now all these benefits are available in online publishing, and with the modern digital publishing technologies available in 2022, online book publishing hands down offers not only what Traditional publishing has, but more, even in terms of royalty and market reach. With digital publishing the book can reach many countries and find its readers, all at once.
Digital Publishing Companies
Shabd is one platform that’s launching it’s official online book publishing site in April, 2022. It’s a platform where not only can readers read hundreds of books, both free books and paid books, but also writers and aspiring authors can get their books published too, without any costs, and get 80% of the royalties they earn.
So all in all, it wouldn’t be wrong to say that online/digital publishing is the new entrant in the market which is here to stay for the benefits of writers.
