Free webinar from Apatara on ebook creation and publishing
By Paul Biba
Got an email from Aptara promoting this 60 minute webinar. Since it is free I thought I would pass it on to you. You can register for it here and it will take place on September 22 at 11AM EDT. Here’s the promo:
Kindle, ePub, Mobipocket, Hypertext, .pdf, .pdb, or .opf? No wonder publishers are struggling to keep pace! And selecting an eBook format is just one of the critical decisions to a successful eBook initiative. What about the pros and cons of each eBook reader? The technical and quality considerations of digitally converting your titles? DRM trade-offs, pricing considerations, and the optimum eBook distribution channels for your content?
This unique 60 minute webinar, led by content strategy guru Scott Abel and featuring Mark Pearce, successful eBook entrepreneur, takes the mystery out of eBook production by examining the options, considerations, and potential pitfalls of migrating to digital. Whether or not you’ve started down the path, learn how to effectively monetize your content via eBooks. Mark Pearce will offer insights and hindsights from having acquired rights to a significant repository and created smart partnerships with the largest eBook distributors in the industry.

Thanks for posting this. I registered and hopefully will be able to watch it. Maybe it will help me improve my ebook selection and quality.

They seem to be Mac unfriendly, however. No Safari, you have to use Firefox and Real Player. I can’t get them to pass their test, so I’ll have to use my netbook. Pain in the neck

Thanks for this lead — I like free. And maybe even useful! (I have Firefox on my Mac, which we use even on our PCs now.)
