BookBaby Publishing is primarily a self-publishing service that offers editing, design, printing, and distribution. While it helps authors get their books published and distributed to major retailers, it does not provide an online publishing platform with a rich text editor, a recommendation engine for readers, or a membership monetization model where writers earn based on reading time. The core features of the 'Medium' concept, such as a direct publishing interface for writers and a reader-centric content discovery system, are not present in BookBaby's offering. Its app focuses on sales tracking for authors, not content consumption for readers.
I've been using Alternative A for 6 months now and it's been fantastic. The pricing is much better and the features are actually more robust than what [Product] offers.
It handles edge cases much better and the API
is actually documented properly.
Check it out at our site.
Honestly, after trying both, Competitor B wins hands down. Better customer support, cleaner interface, and they don't nickel and dime you for every feature.
