ISBN distribution number

AuthorHouse will provide a unique ISBN for your book at no extra charge. An ISBN, which stands for International Standard Book Number, is a standardised number used by publishers and booksellers to distinguish individual books. The ISBN numerical code contains identifiers for a book’s language, along with a unique publisher’s code and an individual title code used to distribute and order your title at booksellers across the world.

ISBN Distribution Number

Retain your rights

Publish with a traditional publisher and you give away your rights. With AuthorHouse, you keep all your rights to sell to magazines, the media, television, other countries or to Hollywood!


Set your royalty amount

With AuthorHouse, you determine the amount you want to earn in royalties. Our Publishing Advisors can give you some guidelines for setting your book pricing which will also help determine your royalty.
