Google Discontinuing eBook Reseller Program Over Lack Of Traction

The search giant back in 2010 introduced a multi-faceted approach to selling ebooks: online, on devices, through affiliates and through resellers: Google eBooks.  But one certainty that Google has found in the service over the time is lack of traction resulting in taking a decision to discontinue the service by the end of January next year. The company says it will work closely with our sixteen reseller partners as they transition in the coming months. Also, booksellers will still be highlighted in the “Buy this book” section of Google Book search, supported with our affiliate program and have access to free Books APIs.
