Submitted by whateverebay on January 6, 2009 – 1:49 pm12 Comments

Blurb is publishing company that allows you to be the author and creator of your Best-Seller. You can create a book about anything you want and start selling it today. Blurb offers you a Free software you can download to create your own book and sell it.


The possibilities here are endless. You can create a cookbook, baby’s first year, a community book etc….. Add as much content, artwork and photos you want.

Blurb charges you a base fee and the markup is your profit. They take care of it all. You create your profile page, announce yourself in Social sites or promote your book on your website or blog and set the pricing.


I created a couple of books for my kids and used their artwork from the previous years. They loved it! Each has a copy and ordered some for family. It was a great gift. I highly recommend this for school fundraisers. Blurb does ask that you order for yourself at least one copy. With pricing as low as $12.95 it’s a great idea to order extra.

Blurb will handle the printing and shipping of the book. Your buyer simply visits your page, clicks purchase and Presto the book is printed and shipped by Blurb.

Once again, this is a FREE service. No membership fees or sale fees. Set your price sell your books in the Blurb bookstore and you get to keep 100% of the markup.

Whether you want to share your writings or artwork with friends or want to publish that novel to share with the world, now is a great time to get it done.

If you decide to create a book, share it with us. I would be happy to add your badge to my site to help promote your book.

    I was going to have our son write a story for Christmas and was looking for a way to publish only a small amount of books so we should ship them to the grandparents and family. I couldn’t mind anything, I think maybe I’ll have him do this for Mothers day. He likes to take pics and has taken some really good ones. Again thanks for sharing another great site. :)

  • I bought Adams Instant Store Builder in Las Vegas last year 4,500 plus 2,000 for the Seminar where he pitched the ISB. ISB is very very difficult to set up. You also need a Logo. Nothing in the ISB about how to create a Logo either. I went back and forth w/ the support tickets. I did get responses that helped somewhat but you have to know what to ask and I’ m not a Techy so that was another challenge. I have not made a dime off of it. You have to know how to drive people to your site (SEO) which was not part…
