What is a self-publisher?

03/09/2023 | by Patrick Fischer, M.Sc., Founder & Data Scientist: FDS

A self-publisher is an author who is responsible for publishing and marketing their book themselves, without enlisting the help of a traditional publisher or book agency. Self-publishing allows authors to publish their work at their own expense without having to comply with a publisher's guidelines or restrictions.

With developments in digital media and print-on-demand technology, it has become possible for self-publishers to publish their book as an e-book or print-on-demand book without incurring a large amount of printing costs or Build a warehouse for physical items.

A self-publisher also typically takes responsibility for marketing their book, including creating and maintaining their own website, using social media, and running promotions. Self-publishing offers authors greater independence and control over their work, but it also requires more work and expense to publish and market the book.
