Do I need a Mac computer to publish an ebook in App Store?
No, all you need is an access to internet for you to send us your book (in .doc, .page, .txt, .pdf, epub or any format you think we can read). We will convert it to a sellable format and put it up in App Store. You will start enjoy the cash flow from Apple after it is published.
You do not need a Mac computer to do it.

Do I need any basic programming skills to publish an ebook?
Again, no. We handle all of the coding and programming works from the time you send your book to us. You will have nothing to do other than counting the revenue in your Apple account.

What is the profit sharing ratio between the publisher and Apple?
You, the publisher, get 70% of the sales. Apple gets 30%. We do not share your revenue. For example, the marked price of your ebook is $9.99. You get $6.99 for each copy sold. If you sell 30 copies everyday, you get $6291 monthly. Remember there are 50 million iPhones, 35 million iPod Touch and 5 million iPads are waiting for your ebooks. Thirty sales per day is a very very conservative estimation. 30 sales means 0.000033% (or 1 in every 3 million) of the users buying from you. Your sales can easily exceed that number. Putting up 2 ebooks can easily give you $12,000 per month.
If your book attract enough readers and being put up in the “Top Paid” list, you are selling over 2,500 copies per day. For the same $9.99 ebook, you are making at least $17,475 per day. I leave the calculation to you. Just check out the “Books” category in the App Store, you can see many people are making it everyday.

What’s the different of publishing ebook as an App and publish it under ebook readers?
Our ebook creation software convert your ebook into an App. Your ebook will appear as an App in the App Store. You are independent of any other Apps. You can have the profit directly from App Store. You have absolute freedom in the promotion, marketing and sales strategy of your ebook.
There are a number of ebook readers in the App Store. Your potential customers have to buy your ebooks through the ebook readers softwares. Your ebook will never appear in the App Store, instead, your ebook is listed in the ebook reader. If the iPhone or iPod Touch user has not installed the ebook readers, he will have no chance to buy your book.
Most of the time, the ebook readers are not in the list of “Top Free” and “Top Paid”.

The lengths of best selling novels vary. It is suggested to split your novel into parts and publish them one after another. It drives consistent and robust incomes to you.
