Whats an ISBN?

• Increase discoverability: ISBNs make it easier for people to find your book through online retailers and libraries.
• Establish credibility: An ISBN gives your book a professional look and feel, which can help you build trust with potential buyers.
• Facilitate distribution: ISBNs are required by many bookstores and online retailers in order to stock your book.
