D2D

D2D for print books will not replace Amazon KDP for most authors—the royalty difference is just too significant if you're primarily selling direct to consumers online. But it's not supposed to replace Amazon; it's supposed to complement it.

Draft2Digital (D2D) saves you from becoming a part-time platform management specialist. Instead of spending hours learning interfaces and keeping track of multiple accounts, you can focus on what you actually signed up for—writing books and connecting with readers.

Are you considering an Amazon KDP alternative? Maybe you're tired of the rules, found yourself in trouble, or simply dislike the way Amazon has been doing things. Or maybe you like Amazon, but don't want to tie yourself down to one platform—you want to try something new to see if you can reach a new set of readers.

If you are new to self-publishing, Amazon KDP Select might be the best choice for your new book. With opportunities to reach more readers, your book can benefit from Amazon's resources.

When you enroll in KDP Select, you're essentially making a deal with Amazon: "I won't sell my ebook anywhere else for 90 days, and in return, you'll give me special perks."
