KnowledgeBase > Lulu Basics > Will Lulu lay out or edit my content for me?

Lulu provides tools to publish and sell products online, but you are responsible for the formatting and layout of your work before you publish it on Lulu.

If you need help with the pre-publishing tasks, see the Lulu Services or visit the Lulu Services Marketplace. Our expert users provide many tips and tricks for preparing your manuscript in the forums. Make sure to search the help on the site for the answers to your questions before posting to the forums.

What is the Services Marketplace?

The Lulu Services Marketplace provides a place for authors and creators to connect with third-party service providers. These service providers, although hand-picked by Lulu, are not members of the Lulu staff. The Services Marketplace simply brings together those seeking publishing services with those who provide them and handles financial transactions. The Services Marketplace gives creators access to five broad categories of publishing services:

  • Pre-publishing services, including manuscript reviews, proofreading, formatting and editing.
  • Graphics services, including book cover design, illustrations and more.
  • Publishing services, including manuscript layout, PDF creation and consultation services.
  • Translation services.
  • Marketing services, including press releases, reviews, websites and other marketing packages.

Purchase services through the Lulu Services Marketplace> (in the Community tab). The Service Provider should contact you within 3 business days of your purchase. Read the complete description of a service carefully before purchasing it.

Contact that Service Provider directly for answers to questions about a specific service. Use the "E-mail this provider" link on the detail page.

For more information about Lulu Service Providers, see Terms and Conditions of the Lulu Services Marketplace>.
