Kobo Book Publishing

Kobo book publishing for the international, library-linked, and independent-bookstore-aligned readers that Amazon and Apple never reach.

What This Service Covers

Kobo book publishing opens a reader base concentrated in Canada, the UK, Australia and parts of Europe, plus ties to independent bookstores that sell Kobo e-readers under their own branding and to OverDrive-linked public libraries through Kobo Plus. We set your book up directly on Kobo's own publishing platform rather than routing it through a generic file conversion.

This includes formatting built for Kobo's own e-readers and apps, plus metadata tuned for how Kobo's regional storefronts and discovery algorithms actually surface books — a system that works differently from Amazon's.
