IngramSpark vs. KDP: Which One Should You Use? (And Why I Use Both!)

If you're diving into self-publishing, you've probably heard of Amazon KDP and IngramSpark—the two biggest platforms for indie authors. But how do they compare? And should you use one or both? Today, I’m breaking down the key differences between these publishing giants and explaining why I personally use both platforms for my books. Amazon KDP vs. IngramSpark: The Breakdown ✅ Amazon KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing) Best for: Selling on Amazon (which dominates the book market) Pros: Free to publish, high royalty rates, user-friendly setup Cons: Limited distribution outside of Amazon, print quality is good but not bookstore-level ✅ IngramSpark Best for: Wide distribution (bookstores, libraries, and online retailers beyond Amazon) Pros: Professional print quality, hardcover options, ISBN control Cons: Setup fees (unless you use discount codes), more complex formatting requirements Why I Use Both Amazon KDP is essential for reaching Amazon readers, but IngramSpark expands my reach to bookstores, libraries, and retailers who prefer to order through Ingram. By using both, I maximize my book’s availability without exclusivity restrictions! Have you published through KDP, IngramSpark, or both? Let me know your experiences in the comments!
