Help needed. Looking for a European eBook Distributor.
Hello, everyone. I need your help.
I'm looking for an eBook distributor that is based in Europe that is willing to work with Indie authors. In other words, I'm looking for a European version of Smashwords. May someone refer me to them? Thanks. Last edited by Russell Brooks; 04-11-2011 at 07:12 AM. |

European Distribution
The only distributor that I have that does worldwide, including Europe, is Overdrive. I think you need to be a publisher to sign up with them.
Did you make sure to select worldwide rights on both Amazon and PubIt? That way in theory you can reach worldwide audiences. Amy |

I believe that Europeans can buy from Smashwords. I've often read about Europeans having to pay delivery charges on Amazon. For example, a $2.99 eBook would cost $4.99. I thought that if I could find a European eBook distributor that could distribute to online stores such as WH Smith and others, then any eBooks that I sell would be more attractive since I've been struggling with selling more eBooks outside of Canada and the United States.

I've published with XinXii.com. Very easy, but no sales. They're trying to become the Amazon of Europe.
