Notes on publishing platforms other than well-known sales platforms like DLsite.

  • Zenn

    • https://zenn.dev/
    • The site you are currently reading these notes on.
    • I've tried finishing a whole Book here, and it was very easy and convenient to write.
    • It's great to see the momentum since its release 👍
    • It seems they have also released a feature for partial free previews.

  • Online Technical Book Platform: boosty

  • Platform for Finding Knowledge That Fits You: webook

    • https://webook.jp/
    • Seems to be a relatively recently released service.
    • The concept seems to be bringing in content sold on other platforms?

  • BCCKS

  • Techpit

    • https://author.techpit.jp/
    • Writing and selling learning materials.
    • To write and sell, you need to pass a review by Techpit.
      • It feels more like editing than just a review.
      • It feels more like co-authoring with a Techpit editor rather than just owning your own content.
    • There is also an interview with Techpit for registration, giving it a strong "publisher" feel.
    • My impression is that of an online publishing house.

  • Technical Book Carnival Online Market

    • https://techbookfest.org/market
    • Online market for the technical doujinshi exhibition: Technical Book Carnival (Gijutsu Sho-ten).
    • Technical Book Carnival 9 and 10 seem to be held online.

  • g.o.a.t.

    • https://www.goat.at/
    • Main focus is novels.
    • Vertical writing is supported.
    • The official team hasn't seemed very active lately...?

  • Slightly different but... Nola: An Editor Dedicated to Novelists
