Your manuscript is complete, and you need a cover for Amazon Kindle Publishing (KDP)?
You are in the right place!
LESS THAN 3 SECONDS TO ATTRACT THE EYE |
---|
The cover is the most important point in self-publishing! And you already know it. Your cover won't attract anyone if it's not suitable. Worse, it will drive the internet user away on Amazon. You know you need to delegate this task to a professional. |
Here's what happens if you do your cover yourself:
TIPS: BEFORE UPLOADING YOUR FILE TO KDP, PERFORM THE FOLLOWING OPERATIONS |
---|
Save the file as a PDF document. You must provide your cover in the form of a single PDF file, including the back cover, spine, and front cover, in a single image. |
Flatten all transparencies. Otherwise, there may be missing or distorted content when printed. To find out how to do this, refer to the software documentation. |
Embed your fonts. To find out how to do this, refer to the software documentation. |
Remove crop marks, control bars, and template text. Crop marks are lines indicating where pages should be cut. Control bars are bands composed of a series of indicators used to check color balance during printing. Also remove any template text, PDF creation guides, or software references. |
Make sure your cover image meets the minimum resolution of 300 dpi (dots per inch). |
Optimize PDF files. This reduces their size and improves their transfer, loading, display, and printing. |
Remove file security. Locked or encrypted files cannot be checked. |
Make sure there are no missing or blank pages. Manuscripts with missing pages or an excessive number of blank pages will be rejected. |
Create simple covers that meet KDP specifications!
I have been helping authors make, publish, and sell more books since January 2021.
I have gained extensive experience in creating covers exclusively for Amazon KDP.
All the covers I deliver are designed to SELL.
I have already published more than 2000 covers in total.
It is not enough to be a graphic designer to create a cover that will sell. You also need to have a good understanding of the marketing and strategic workings of Amazon KDP, and few graphic designers know this!

If you like to have explanations on the reasons and motivations behind your cover choices, subscribe to this option.
In general, the options below are not necessary. And you already have the right to revisions included in your package, after the first delivery.
However, depending on your personality, they may be useful to you. If you are more or less consciously aware that your psychological profile cultivates the following tendencies; meticulous, inability to let go, difficulty trusting, projection, wanting to control everything, obsession with perfection, then this option will please you. Let's be clear about things 😎 (and we added this option in August 2021, through experience)
Keep in mind, however, that a cover is not necessarily meant to please you.
In the sense that after more than 2400 book covers (as of 11/24/2022), you must trust us, and we know how to create covers that sell. Our primary goal is to seduce, convince, and sell to the user on Amazon.fr, for example.
OPTION: UNLIMITED REVISION REQUESTS
Request the improvement or modification of your cover.
Please send us your manuscript, title, subtitle, description texts, final cover. Any corrections to your documents that occur after order validation may be subject to additional charges.
🔎 WHAT IS A COVER EDIT REQUEST? |
---|
A cover edit request is a partial intervention or change of an element on the cover. For example, changing the title font, adding an author's photo, removing an element from the image, correcting a spelling mistake, etc. A modification is not a total change of the cover multiple times. |
You will need to indicate the format of your manuscript and the number of pages.
⚠️ 4 TIPS TO AVOID BEING TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF BY YOUR GRAPHIC DESIGNER |
---|
1. A cover for a paperback book includes several elements in 1 single file (front cover, spine, back cover). |
2. Ask if the source and high definition files are included in the sale price. You should have the files in high definition (AI, EPS, PSD, or Canva source). They differ from a so-called "exported" file (JPG, GIF, PNG, PDF). |
3. Ask your designer if they use or have used images or illustrations free of any commercial use (premium). |
4. Ask your designer if they have taken into account the number of pages in your manuscript. Indeed, the dimensions of the cover will depend on the number of pages (thicker or thinner depending on the number of pages). |
10 TIPS FOR A COVER ADAPTED TO AMAZON |
---|
1. Your graphic designer MUST know the different pre-existing cutting sizes at Amazon KDP. |
2. A cover is made up of the front cover, the spine, and the back cover. |
3. Your description, biography, photos, book price, etc. should be on the back cover. |
4. Your book title must be highly visible. If it is too small, it will be unreadable on Amazon product thumbnails (search results). |
5. Everything written on your front cover must be displayed in the title field of the Amazon KDP registration form. So, if you have written too much on the cover, it will probably be harmful. |
6. Depending on the niches and themes, there are colors that work and colors that do not work. |
7. You have practical and customary colors depending on the literary genre. |
8. Your cover has between 3 and 6 seconds to attract attention and convince... |
9. E-book covers or digital book covers are different from paperback book covers. |
10. For a paperback book, the cover and manuscript are two separate files. |
⚠️Go beyond the price. Our covers are intended to SELL on Amazon KDP.
