Professional book cover design services

We make creating your original book cover a simple, yet collaborative, part of the self publishing process. Whether you're looking for a printed book or eBook cover design, our professional design team has a tried-and-true process to creating original, vibrant book covers.

First, you can start by creating a quote. Here, you can choose your ideal trim size, cover style, binding, and paper stock options. Then, simply complete our design questionnaire to help us get a better understanding of what you're looking for in your book cover design. You can also add your own images or let our design team use their library of resources. Once your book cover is designed, you can review your proof and take one step closer toward publishing your book.

With BookBaby you can use our design tools and professional guidance to customize your cover. You start by choosing your design style, upload any artwork or photos you want included, and work with BookBaby's specialists to refine layout, title placement, and visual elements until you are satisfied with the final design.

Our professional design team has experience with every book genre and style, and our process is simple and efficient. At BookBaby, we work as a one-stop-shop for all your self-publishing needs — from editing, to marketing, to, of course, your book's design inside and out.
