What do u mean u were expecting a novel cover? Did I say I was going to design your cover for you. I sent you a template which should give you cover sizes and specs and you are still asking confused. At this stage, take your matter to a graphic designer in your street.

I always appreciate your work and assistance. I thought you will send me novel template,which I can just edit the title and picture and replace it with mine. And edit the back cover. But when I saw the church cover,It was confusing and looks like I'll have to do a fresh work and also start writing contents. Anyway,I'll try my best and if it doesn't work,I'll move on. Thanks for everything

On a second thought I edited my post. Believe me, it may just take 500 naira or 1k for a graphic designer to do you a cover. I cant teach you that over nairaland. Also I dont write novels. Sorry.

Be arranging my commissions undecided

I have checked out the covers you showcased here. Looks okay. I'm glad that my friend PERCEPTION PLAYS got you to do the cover. What DPI are you using? I'm thinking may need to be increased

Morning, I'm glad you know the author of "Perception Plays", a very smart and intuitive individual.

To your question, I deliver at 72DPI,if you want it print ready - 300DPI and get a free 3D mock up of your cover, that will cost you 2k.

I offer this service on Fiverr and the minimum I charge is $10 per cover. I am just doing this to help guys here in solving a very important aspect for making sales from their books on Amazon.

Most of my foreign clients always emphasis on their cover design being beautiful and professional ; it is the basis of making sales on Amazon. (oyibo are visual creatures) cool

Kindly contact me at my signature if you need my service. Call/ whatsapp. Thank you.

These oyibo are really stingy. Did free promo and they downloaded 500 copies but to buy... Lol and they say only Naija likes awoof angry angry grin

Please my question is, I see people "bolding" some text in their description for emphasis. I want to try it but worried about the html tags showing. Kudos to you guys for the sales and kenp reads. My books get more reads than sales. Na wa back to drawing board.

1. Bro, you're welcome to the club.That was what they did to me one day. They downloaded over 650 books in one day. I even thought maybe it was robots that was downloading the books because I was just shocked to see 688 books downloaded...and not much sales for the other titles I have. So you're welcome bro.

2. To add that header bolded tag us this: <h2> What you want to increase-bold</h2>

If you just want to bold a portion without making it look bigger (heading), use this:

<b> this is bold text</b>

The h2 tag is a heading tag not so big, but very moderate and recomended in the amazon platform. h1 tags are bigger and h3 tags a bit smaller than h2.

No ask me how i take know. Na website I dey design until Buhari carry recession enter and clients begin abandon their websites, no more renewal. Nna, na im I redirect.

Thanks bro I hope I have the courage to try those bold tags. Some said they used it but it ended up just coming out with the tags showing.

Imagine if those 650 downloads a day was real sales *sigh* at least it means the book is not the problem. They are just not comfortable paying for an unknown author I guess
