Conversion Services
eBook conversions are the core of what we do here at eBook Architects. So, what makes our conversion services better than the other companies out there?
The most important difference is quality. As the number of eBooks available has increased, the low quality of most eBook conversions has been a topic of concern in many corners of the industry and even in the media:
- Wired News (read our response at Teleread)
- Bloomberg News
- Joe Wikert, General Manager & Publisher at O'Reilly Media, Inc.
eBooks need the expert attention of a good architect, not just some guy sitting in a cubicle in India. eBooks need to be formatted with the format limitations and device specifications in mind, not just turned into HTML. eBooks deserve the same care a print book receives. That is what we provide at eBook Architects.
So, take a look at our thoughts on the variety of eBook formats and at the retailers you might be able to utilize in selling your book, and look at the lists of eBook devices consumers have access to. Then read about our eBook conversion services and rates and drop us a line to talk about how we can help you.
