MagCloud.com - Publish and Print your Own Magazine

MagCloud allows you to publish your own magazine and sell it online so that you make all the profit. MagCloud takes care of all the work after you create it yourself – printing, mailing, subscriptions, etc. It doesn´t cost you anything to design your magazine and all you need is a PayPal account so that you can sell the product above production cost to generate your earnings. MagCloud requires that you upload a PDF but that´s pretty much about it – the rest is up to you. You can also browse others´magazines on MagCloud and purchase those you wish by creating an account. While MagCloud is in it´s Beta stage, magazine creators have to request an invitation in order to publish.

¨MagCloud...will provide small independent magazine publishers, online content owners, and small businesses the ability to custom publish digitized magazines and economically print and fulfill on demand.¨

For those who have always wanted to create your own magazine but have had no idea of how to publish it or actually sell it for profit, MagCloud seems like an exciting option to try. You can reach a like-minded public and can browse through and buy other new magazines as well. It seems that MagCloud will take care of everything though I wonder how many people will actually join up and purchase. Also, MagCloud states that it will be responsible for lots of details with the publishing and selling of your magazine but never actually states what those details are.

What are the specific benefits for publishing with MagCloud? Where can they add a tab to directly buy magazines? Where are the facts about how much money it takes to publish and how much the profit margin would be?
