Comparison of Photo Book Publishers
Make Your Own Photobooks

Which Photo Book Publisher is Best for You?

There are several photo book publishers and it is hard to compare each publisher because any comparison is subjective. Some people want the easiest book site possible and only want a basic book with plain backgrounds. Other people want to have as much flexibility in choice of background and layouts. Each person would probably be happier with a different publisher.

A lot of thought has gone into giving you the best options to compare publishers. We have reviewed over 30 different publishers. Uploading pictures to make sure that is easy for everyone to do. Checking out the size and cover options. Determining the layouts available and how many text choices there were. Was the software intuitive and easy to use? Even comparing them on price.

With all this effort, I still had a hard time choosing a publisher when I was making a book for a 10-day cruise I just took. I am a moderate user -- not too picky but wanting some flexibility. I started the book with 4 different publishers and revisited at least 5 others in the process.

So, we will be undertaking new ways to help you choose which publisher to fit your style and project you are undertaking. In the meantime, please use the tools we have available for you now. Please be sure to bookmark us, or try an RSS feed. The instructions for that are under the RSS button in the left hand column.

And your feedback is important in helping other people decide which publisher to use. Please let us know of any experiences you have had with each individual publisher. You can do that by using the form at the bottom of the page.
