A large number of authors in the self-publishing industry
underrate how important it is to get a book cover designed when they are first
starting out in the authoring and publishing industry. A professionally crafted
book cover design is a key factor in how your book will be perceived. Not just
any graphic designer will do, you need a professional. To obtain your goals you
need a book cover designer with experience who really knows the trade and how
to achieve the results you desire. Getting the right book cover is like winning
half the battle. Your story may be about any subject in this world and it may
be the best story but if its book cover does not excite the onlookers in the
book store or internet, then there is no point. The only thing a new reader
will notice about your book is the book cover. If he/she likes it, then the
person will bother to open it further.
What are important things to keep in mind while designing Professional book cover designer
The most important thing is, no matter what, it should be
very good looking. Other important factors are that it should be closely
related to the theme of the book and there must be a connect between the story
and the cover page. The designer must be able to understand what kind of
designing is required. The illustration/cover page illustration/picture used
should be one of the scenes from the story and should be presented in such a
fashion that it generates a lot of interest.
One more suggestion is to look for a variety of book covers
available on the internet and understand various types of covers that have need
created. After that, finalize the ones that you think will suit your story
because you will find a lot of concepts available. Once you have taken an idea,
you can ask your illustrator to come up with something like that.
The designing part/the text part are something which must
complement the illustration and the overall feel of the book cover should be
enhanced. It's very important to choose the right font and text size. Again,
looking for various fonts on the internet will be a good idea and share your
ideas with the designer/illustrator.
Once you are sure that you have got a good cover, the next
stage would be to start the promotion of the book because a book cover is as
good as the book itself for online promotion or presentation.
