Book Cover Design

Designed for your genre and your readers

A cover is marketing, not decoration. Before sketching anything, our designers study the bestsellers in your category so your book looks like it belongs there, and then find a way for it to stand out.

You receive several original concepts built around your title, genre and audience. Pick the one you love and we refine typography, color and imagery until it is exactly right, then prepare every file you need.

Every cover comes with a front cover for ebooks, a full wrap with spine and back cover for print, and 3D mockups for your website and social media.

FAQ

Questions about book cover design

Have a question that is not answered here? Our consultants are happy to help.

How many cover concepts will I see?

Usually three original concepts, and more when your cover needs custom illustration.

Do I own the cover design?

Yes. Once the project is paid, you own the final design and can use it on your book, website, ads and merchandise.

Are the images and fonts licensed?

Always. We use commercially licensed stock, original illustration and fonts cleared for book covers, and we keep the license records for you.

Can you design a cover for a book published elsewhere?

Of course. Many authors come to us for a redesign when an older cover is not selling. We will match your existing trim size and page count.
