Outstanding support; highly recommend Archway I’m writing this while still in the process (read that—not yet published). Thus far I haven’t run into any of the negative issues described by other reviewers. My calls/emails/questions have been answered immediately and knowledgeably. Yes, there is some up-selling—but you have to look at this as a printing service. In short, you get what you pay for. If you need or want additional help ( Ie, an illustrator to help design a cover), you have to pay for that. I completely self-published a previous book in 2013, and it cost 4k to do so. I’ve spent 5k with Archway for far more help, quality, and support. In terms of the process I give them 5 stars and 2 thumbs up.

Archway Publishing has been a great…team of experts Archway Publishing has been a great experience for my first publishing experience. My initial quest to get the ball rolling during a time life got extremely busy, and had to put this process on hold. No matter how long it took, Archway was ready and waiting for me, as they were about their business. The process was exciting, scary, fun and now published and ready to share.

Archway is a good publishing company… Archway is a good publishing company for the following reasons: 1. You get your money's worth. 2. They work with you with negotiating payments. 3. They guide you through the hole process. 4. The advisor is friendly and patient. 5. This company will not take your money and give you the boot with out accurate publication performance. Thanks for all you have done in publishing two of my books. The third one will be in process in a few months. Thanks for making me smile in the final productions for both books. The old saying the third time is a charm. JH

Archway doomed my book from the start I spent thousands to have a top line review of my manuscript and recommendations. Practically none were done. Only side notes like to “spell out acronyms.” Meanwhile my cover story was rewritten to appeal to a readers who watch soap operas instead of the legal and medical community. Archway even required that I write it as fiction though the evidence could easily be sourced for accuracy through the public medical boards and court records. Archway did everything to sabotage my book as they ran off with thousands of dollars and then asked for even more. I refused after that.They are a complete rip- off publisher. I may have sold a total of ten books in 5 years.

Quality Printing, But Modest Support I knew what I was getting into and wasn't expecting too much. They did a good job formatting the book and doing all the stuff behind the scenes to get it listed in Amazon, B&N, and make it available in catalogs. However, don't fall for the marketing add-ons. They send out press releases, but there's no follow-up. In short, there's no guarantee or real effort to try to get your book reviewed or in stores. Maybe I had a poor marketing rep, but they only did the bare minimum and were never proactive. I always had to reach out to them. It's not a scam, but there's not a ton of value in what they claim as marketing.
