Use this guide when you are self-publishing and want a professional cover rather than designing one yourself. Have your final title and subtitle, author name, a short description of the book and your trim size if it is a paperback.
Step by step

Look at current bestsellers in your category online and in a bookshop. Note common fonts, colours, imagery and layout, because readers use these cues to recognise a genre instantly. Save a handful of examples you like and a few you dislike.
