These are the basic prices for eBook cover design. There may be some variation depending on what type of elements are used—illustrations or photography—and the degree of complexity. Every job will require a custom quote. Cost includes one stock image, and each additional image is extra, generally around $10 each.
Basic Design
Simple elements include a single image with title and author. Two to three options will be presented as rough drafts. One round of changes and one round of fine-tuning are included. $250
Custom Design
This option applies to a cover that needs special treatment to convey a clear message. This could include things like illustration, Photoshop retouching or composing, or special type treatment. Two to three rough compositions or sets of elements will be presented before illustration or Photoshop work begins. Two sets of changes and one round of fine-tuning are included. $350 and up
