Why Convert Your Blog Posts into an Ebook?

- Repurposing older articles: When taking articles from your blog, you’ll likely also make use of older content. This gives you the chance to revive those old articles and make more use of them.
- Allowing offline access to your blog content: Ebooks are usually read offline. So, by converting your articles to an ebook, you can make your content much more accessible and convenient to read.
- Increasing leads and conversion rates: When you provide your audience with a free ebook, it usually takes the form of a lead magnet. As a result, you’re collecting your readers’ email addresses, which you can then send promotional emails or newsletters to.

October 26, 2023I read your helpful article, downloaded the app, and watched the tutorial. I’d like to do a test publication with it to be sure it works, but I’m a little uncertain as to whether this app is actually free. I am not interested in working with a trial or paid software. Is there a limited number of ebooks or apps one can publish with this platform for free, for instance? I would appreciate your clarification on pricing for use of Kotobee Author. Thanks.
