Where can I sell my eBook?

If you publish your eBook via FEIYR, you can offer your eBook for sale in over 150 online stores worldwide, giving you a huge reach. This of course includes the major online stores such as Amazon, iBook Store, Thalia, Hugendubel, Google Play, Nook by Barnes & Noble and many more. You can view the entire list of our partner stores here. If you don't want to deliver to a store or country for a specific reason, you can exclude it at any time.

Do I need a publisher to publish my eBook?

No, as a self-publisher you don't need a publisher. You do have to enter a publisher's name in any case and can simply choose the name you want. However, you don't actually have to set up your own publishing house (although you can if you want to). Popular publishing house names are those that include your name or the subject matter or genre in which you are at home. Please be careful not to register a publisher that you are not with.

Can I also offer my eBook as a print book or audiobook?

Yes, you can also offer your eBook as an audiobook and as a physical book via our print-on-demand tool. Your book will be listed in the VLB as well as in the bookstores (KNV, Libri and Umbreit). This means that the entire book trade in Germany, Austria and Switzerland as well as all online stores have access to your book. Your advantage: The book is only printed when an order is received. So you don't have high printing costs in advance.

Can I sell my eBook on my own website?

Yes, of course! You can sell your eBook on your own website and in any other store that we do not supply.

Does my eBook need a minimum number of pages?

No, there is no minimum number. In fact, there is no fixed number of pages for eBooks, as this varies depending on the display and font size on the eBook reader or tablet. You can also look around to see what length is usual in your genre or subject matter. The content should also match both the price and the title. A 500-page "quick guide" is not quite right.

Can I publish my eBook under a pseudonym?

Yes, of course you can publish your eBook under a pseudonym or pen name. You can also use several pseudonyms if you write books in different genres. However, you should always make sure that your desired pseudonym is not already in use. You certainly want to avoid someone writing erotic novels under the same name while you are a children's book author. You should also refrain from using academic titles unless you actually have one.

Do I need an imprint for my eBook?

Yes, according to the German Telemedia Act, you definitely need an imprint for your eBook; this is not optional information and should be included in every book and eBook. The imprint is also mandatory if you publish your eBook under a pseudonym, so a simple e-mail address and the pseudonym are not sufficient. It must be ensured that information about the author and publisher is available. If you use a pseudonym, you can alternatively enter your publisher's name.

Does my eBook need an ISBN?

Yes, every eBook needs its own ISBN. If you publish a book and eBook, you need a separate ISBN for both, even if they have the same content and the same cover. You can either use your own ISBN or let us assign you one free of charge.

Who sets the sales price?

You alone determine the price of your eBook! Your eBook will then be offered at this price in all online stores. You can also offer your eBook for free, or raise or lower the price later. You can make good use of this if, for example, you want to launch a price promotion before Christmas to increase your sales figures.

Can I create a free ePUB file from my eBook?

Yes, we at FEIYR offer you a free conversion to ePub format for your eBook. All you have to do is provide us with your Word file and we will convert the eBook to ePub format within a short time.

How can I promote my eBook?

As an experienced digital distributor, we have lots of tips and tools for you. If you publish an eBook as an independent author, it's really important that you also promote it. A large number of eBooks come onto the market every year, so it's unfortunately not enough to simply be online. We therefore offer you a variety of marketing tools, e.g. press releases, Amazon and Facebook advertising, download codes and reviews. You can also get lots of tips on our book blog. In addition, our expert graphic design team is on hand to help you with everything from cover design to promotional material.
