GuideGecko Seeks Authors and Publishers

GuideGecko accepts guides of any length, from a few pages to hundreds. Guides are published instantly and listed on GuideGecko's front page, where they receive maximum visibility. Customers can then order the guides immediately.
Publishing is free and authors/publishers set the retail price themselves. They earn 50 to 75% on every sale, whilst retaining full control over their content and copyrights. Users only need to write and upload their guides, since everything else from secure payment collection to printing and shipping is handled by GuideGecko.
"Every food lover has his favorite restaurants; every student knows the best places to party. We provide the perfect platform to turn this insider knowledge into money - in a fun and easy way. You can publish on GuideGecko no matter if you are a publishing greenhorn or an expert writer," says Daniel Quadt, Founder and Managing Director of GuideGecko.
