What is a low-content book?

Create quick, high-quality books with little to no original written content. Low-content books. These books can range from blank pages with simple drawing prompts to activity pages.

Why would you want to create a low-content book?

If seeing your name in print has always been a goal, but your novel isn’t quite ready to be published, you can be published by the weekend with a low-content book.

With proper research and quality work, low-content books can be profitable. Low-content books don’t have to take months of work to get published. They can be published in just a few days, giving you a return on your time much quicker. 

Plus, depending on your publishing method, your printing cost will be significantly lower, considering most low-content books are less than 100 pages. 

Here are a few examples of profitable low-content books you can write and publish immediately:

1. Lined Journal

A very popular type of low-content book is a simple lined journal. They are good for anything. You can target little kids, grade school kids, and even adults with these types of books. 

2. Dot Grid Journals

In recent years, bullet journals have become the new thing. Giving the owner the free spirit to design their own pages any way they want. Have a planner on one page while drawing dragons on the next. Complete flexibility for the user.

3. Adult Coloring Books

This particular niche is very competitive, but with the right research, you could easily position yourself as a best seller. These books range in size and length. Themes are very common with adult coloring books. There are sites you can buy POD (Print on Demand) licenses through for designs to eliminate the need to design the pages yourself. Check out the Resources Pages for a list.

4. Recipe Books

A simple recipe book is still extremely valuable. I still have all my favorite recipes printed in a binder, so I don’t lose them. They also make great gifts. 

5. Prompt Books

Much like writing prompts, you can design a whole collection of books around prompts. Prompts for journal entries, favorite things, drawing pictures, world creation, etc.

6. Password Books

There are some people who are never going to trust a computer or app to store their passwords. There are also companies that need to share passwords with their employees and have a printout of all the passwords. Create a password book to collect all those secretive words and store them in a safe place. 

7. Food Tracking Log Books

For someone who needs to log all their food, these books are great. People can use them to figure out what foods they are allergic to or what foods keep their hunger at bay. It can also be a good tool to reflect on what foods are consumed the most.

8. Gratitude Journals.

These journals focus entirely on recording what you are grateful for. Sometimes, they have just plain lines, and some have prompts to reflect on more than what has happened that day.

This is just a small list of low-content books you can create. With a bit of research, you could easily come up with several types of low-content books you could create quickly.

Your name will be in print in no time with the low-content book market.
