Ourboox is simple and fun to use. You can publish an interactive HTML5-based e-book in minutes, or upload a pdf directly, in seconds.

Ourboox is highly ranked by search engines.

Upgrading to Premium enables you to write unlimited number of books, create your own author homepage (see one here), add live hyperlinks to your HTML books, see the number of book views, and get rid of advertising associated with your books.

More features are coming soon. In future, making books private may also be a premium service.

See here for details.

​There is no limit to the length of a book.

Of course, if it is an interactive HTML book! There is no limit to the number of times you, as the writer, can go in and make as many changes or additions as you wish. Yours is a living book!

If you upload a PDF book, however, it cannot be changed. You will have to remove it and upload an edited version.

This option is available only for Premium users. Check out our Premium plan here.

Go to your “Edit Profile” page by clicking on your avatar in the top right corner:

The books on Ourboox (over 170,000) are created and shared freely for the benefit of our users around the world.

Search engines can readily scan the contents and promote them.

Premium authors can receive donations and support for their efforts. For more details, check here.

On Ourboox your book can be a few pages long, or a hundred pages long. It’s entirely up to you.

See here for more details.

Ourboox is a great tool to create your dummy book, with or without pictures.

Be sure to make the book private if you want to share it only with a select group of people.

For more information, see here.

The interactive books on Ourboox are not to be downloaded. We keep them on our server, where they are accessible to readers, whether signed in or not.

We believe that this protects the authors, while giving maximum access to readers.

In the future we may allow authors to download their own books as a premium service.

However, PDF books are downloadable, if the author chose to allow it for the readers.
