8 Easy Steps to Publish Your Book
-
Prepare Your Manuscript
Complete your content in a standard format (MS Word), with a clear title, chapters, table of contents, author details and references. For academic books, follow a consistent citation style throughout.
-
Editing and Proofreading
Get your manuscript professionally edited for grammar, structure, formatting and plagiarism. A well-edited book builds author credibility and reader trust.
-
Choose Your Publisher
Select a trusted publication house. Creative Path Techno Solution is the publisher and ConferenceGate.in is the platform where you can apply to publish your book online.
-
Get Your ISBN Number
The ISBN (International Standard Book Number) is a unique 13-digit code that identifies your book worldwide. The detailed ISBN process is explained below.
-
Design the Cover and Book Layout
A professional front cover, back cover with ISBN barcode, and properly typeset inner pages (page size, margins, fonts, headers) make your book market-ready.
-
Printing or eBook Publication
Choose print (offset for bulk, print-on-demand for small quantities), eBook (PDF or EPUB), or both. Academic books often publish in both formats for wider reach.
-
Distribution
Distribute through online stores, libraries, institutions and your publisher's platform so readers everywhere can find and buy your book.
-
Promotion and Book Launch
Promote via social media, academic networks and conferences. A book launch event — physical or online — creates visibility and boosts early sales and citations.
How to Get an ISBN Number in India (Free of Cost)
In India, ISBN numbers are issued completely free by the Raja Rammohun Roy National Agency for ISBN, which works under the Ministry of Education, Government of India. The process is fully online:
- Register as an Author (for a single book) or as a Publisher (for multiple books)
- Fill in the book details — title, author name, language, edition, format (paperback/hardcover/eBook) and expected publication date
- Upload the required documents, such as identity proof, address proof and the title page of your book
- Submit the application — after verification by the agency, the ISBN is issued to your registered account, usually within a few days to a few weeks
Important: each format of your book (paperback, hardcover, eBook) and each new edition requires its own separate ISBN. Beware of agents who charge money for ISBN "registration" — the official process on isbn.gov.in is free.
