How in the world is this company still… How in the world is this company still open? They prey on and rob Senior Citizens blind, change names daily!! Check their reviews!!! Online Book Writers became Creative Writing Hub became Amazon Publishing Experts. Online Book Writers and Creative Writing Hub built and hosted me a website, http www.bookmarks dot store for over $20,000 and Amazon Publishing Experts shut my website down within 24hrs Of contact. I paid for lifetime service and received 21/2 years of service. Hosting & Security - SSL Integration Premium/ custom domain Pack 3: Lifeime VPS hosting + Lifetime domain with C Panel + 2 professional emails + Web security: TLS Certificate (advance type security) COST: 6520 This was only one of many paid invoices. The company that built and hosted my website turned it over to Ryan.Chase Amazon Publishing Experts and shut it down within 24hrs. Of me knowing him as he asked for $15,000 to bring the website back up. Nice way to treat a customer, a Senior Citizen. Ryan Chase and his Amazon Publishing Experts Team shut down my website, they were given the ADMIN USERNAME and PASSWORD to MY website from the website Host "Creative Writing Hub" and allowed them, without my permission or knowledge, to shut down my website of 21/2 years and money I really did not have to spend being on Social Security. The 3 are thieves preying on Senior Citizens. Http www.bookmarks dot store is NO MORE.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. I signed a contract with Online Book Writers 13 months ago. They promised many deliverables, including 700% return on investment within 3 months. After 13 months, I have yet to see any sales resulting from my contract with Online Book Writers. I did NOT get a functioning website. I paid for an audiobook and received back only 11 of the 22 chapters. I chose an audio book artist but the book was recorded by another who butchered the book. This is unfortunately a mute point since the book was never finished, so it is completely unusable. I paid for social media marketing and posting to Instagram but they didn't deem it necessary to actually read the book, so I had to develop all the content for them to post. In the contract it stated radio and print media promotion - NOTHING was done. Since they didn't read the book, I was tasked with writing my own book promotion article and had to give up as I am not trained in marketing. They don't answer messages for weeks at a time. The project manager I originally had quit and took his entire team with him, so I thought in all fairness to give the company another chance. But the second project manager also didn't deliver on the terms of the contract. I decided to cut my losses and asked them to put whatever remaining money was in my account into Instagram. And then the project manager went completely silent. I haven't heard from them in weeks despite my efforts. I was completely and totally scammed by this company. For 5,000 USD I received a logo and a promo video.

‘There is no friend as loyal as a… ‘There is no friend as loyal as a book.’ And Online Book Writers ensure that this quote applies to all their works. Their writing style and content quality are among the best I’ve ever come across. My recent paperback is related to a fictional story that offers a gripping plot, brilliant character depictions, and pertinent dialogue deliveries. I sincerely value their top-notch assistance.

Online Book Writers is a Nightmare Online Book Writers has been a nightmare. I have read most of the online reviews and find them disconnected from reality and strangely (and coincidentally) nearly identical to one another. I’m not surprised that Trust Pilot has flagged OBW reviews with the following message: “We’ve detected a number of fake reviews for this company and we’ve removed them.” I began with Online Book Writers (OBW) in November 2020. I was hesitant to use their service because I had concerns about how long the project would take to complete. However, I was assured by Bruno R. that they could meet my 6 to 8 month expectation. That was 21 months ago… and counting. I have spent $10,750 with this company and find it difficult to give them even one star. The initial quote was $2000 for their services; however, they didn’t inform me of all the aspects of book development, marketing, and publishing they would later insist were important for success. Nearly every month, there was an upsell: I needed illustrations; I needed a better book trailer video (which has now been in production for over 7 months and still isn’t completed); ISBNs; LCCN; Copywriting; social media followers, etc., etc. There isn’t an end to what they say you need. NOTE: You do get more attention from managers when you agree to an upsell. (They get commissions). One manager was noticeably upset over the phone when he heard I had gotten the Library of Congress Control Number (LCCN) myself. It was free. He had quoted me $1500. Over the course of the past 21 months, the first writer quit the OBW company at the 5-month mark into my project (she explained it was because of unreasonable OBW expectations for assembly line production). Only about 30% of the book had been roughed out. They assigned a second writer who resumed writing the book with little thematic correlation to what had already been written. The progress was incremental. It was painful. In the end, the direction was so bad as we approached the one-year mark that I took back over the writing myself and completed the book. As it stands now, I have actually written most of the novel myself. Editing was equally painful. Each time OBW edited, they produced mistakes: extra lines, extra spaces, strange characters, line breaks, misspelled words, etc. I had to re-edit many times. (NOTE: I had a complete manuscript when I came to OBW. However, I decided I needed professional help with story development and marketing. OBW was never interested in my manuscript, as this doesn’t fit neatly into their mass production constructs. The writers were not interested. Bruno R. wasn’t interested. The four managers on the project were not interested. The OBW machine must keep moving. No one has the time.) Dysfunction abounds with OBW and disappointments are never-ending. Writers quit and get changed out. Managers turn over your file to the next, and the next, and so on. And, when this occurs, the next person isn’t at all familiar with your project and can’t find the information you’ve previously sent. They are confused (and who wouldn’t be with a hundred or so clients). Errors are very frequent and progress can move backward. I wish there was a rating of less than 1 Star. As of this writing, it is August 2022. November 2020 was ages ago. All I have from OBW is a profound disappointment. If I could rewind the past 21 months, I would NOT have chosen OBW. As it stands now, I am out $10,750 and there are no book sales. This is mostly because the marketing elements are still outstanding and no one will get back to me. I paid for the $3000 Book Trailer Video 7 months ago. I’m still waiting and no one will get back to me. The $1000 Social Media Contacts were paid for 5 months ago. I’m still waiting and no one will get back to me. (The few that were delivered were mostly from Vietnam.) “Beta reader review”? It was never done. “Final Review” with the senior editor? Never happened. “Query Letter” sent to editors, agents and publishing houses?” Still waiting. Publishing Strategy Discussion with Marketing Specialist?” Never happened. “Google Business Review?” The manager wouldn’t do it without the upsell/commission. “1000 Media Contacts?” Never happened. Weekly and Monthly traffic reports? Only happened once. My website? I have been asking about the name of hosting company and credentials (for access) for 17 months. They can’t produce it. Whenever I call, I hear the mantra “the work continues”. I have heard that mantra over and over… even when nothing is happening. Do not use Online Book Writers. I will be 2 years into this nightmare soon and can’t wait for it to be over.
