Trafford : Java Glossary

Other approaches you might consider for low-volume publishing are issuing books on CD, DVD, electronically downloaded, as spoken word in a number of formats, or website subscription.

As always, the problem is getting your work out in front of the public. Electronic publishing makes marketing your book no easier, with one possible exception. If your book has a very narrow niche market, then describing it in detail on a webpage, then asking all the search engines of the world to index it, will help people looking for books on that topic find your book. For a regional book, you are better to hit the bookstores of the region, in person.

The editing of typical Trafford books is pretty awful. I am not sure if this is the fault of Trafford’editors, authors buying only minimal editing services, or authors doing their own editing.
