EbookAd.com
Another self publishing option is with EbookAd.com. As of this writing EbookAd only published ebooks, no POD. However they do handle a lot of different ebook formats many are for handheld devices. You retain full copyright to your work. There is no cost to listing your book.
You get 65% on each of your books sold. You can get an additional 10% if they buy the ebook through your affiliate link.
Like Lulu it all appears to be very straight forward. I have not ordered or published through EbookAd. With ebooks only it should all be fairly automated.
I really like the idea of an affiliate program. I also like the many many ebook formats they offer: hiebook, Adobe PDF, Microsoft Reader, Palm Doc, MobiPocket and Rocketbook. You get to choose which ones you want to convert to.
Here is my thought: there is no reason you cannot publish at both EbookAd.com and Lulu.com simultaniously. Offer Lulu to print book lovers and PDF, and also offer all the handheld formats from EbookAd, for those that use handheld hardware. It seems to me there is no reason why you cannot offer both from your own author's website and give the reader whatever format they want.

i have had some problems with ebookad dot com
they have essentially sold my book (original content, i am slef published author)
and kept the money and not honored my cashout requests. the onlin account summary i have with them shows the cashouts, but i never received the cheque after waiting almost 2 months.
i spoke with them once on the phone, they said they were real busy and if i would just be patient i would have the cheque in 7 to 10 days.
so now a month later still no cheque in the mail, no response to my repeated attempts to contact them by email or telephone.
i could understand if they were just busy,
but selling my product and not paying me my share
and just basically ignoring me...
now that i do not understand
sincerely, jon logan
