As A Cappela Publishing states on their website “There is not one right way to publish”. So how do we as writers decide on which publishing option will work best for us?
The first step should be to think about your goals for the book. You should include in this both the monetary and emotional as this will give you a clearer idea of where you see it going.
You will probably also want to consider the genre of your book which will in many cases cut down your research as not all genres are suitable for all publishers.
It’s also wise to work out how much time and effort you plan to put into the marketing and promotional side of publishing your book. Keep in mind though that which ever route you choose you will probably have to do at least some.

--Vanity or subsidy publishing
