You’re saying gumroad doesn’t have the “discoverability” or “reachability”? I’m interested because I wanted to publish my next book through that platform.

- Tomte 4y agoI have never browsed on Gumroad (or Leanpub), I have never logged in except to buy or download. Every (e-)book I have bought on Gumroad I found somewhere else (sometimes here on HN), and there it was linked to the Gumroad page. You should plan to have a book web site, at least. And probably submit it on HN.
- systemvoltage 4y agoThat's not what I am saying. Specifically for books. There might be users logged in to look for other things regularly, but Gumroad would not be a place to find readers.
- exolymph 4y agoIf you want discoverability, Amazon is a much better bet. Definitely entails other tradeoffs.
