I was also hesitant to upload my blog and order a book based on some of the reviews I read. And, I will admit I had a bit of trouble with the website (but I'm not so sure it wasn't my home internet connection). In any event, I did send a comment to customer support for assistance and received a prompt (within24 hrs) reply. I then ordered my book. Yes, it's a bit pricey and I kept my expectations low. The book arrived on time and the quality was exception in ever way! It's 281 pages so I'm slowly reading through each page but half way through it I can already say there are no errors, the binding is tight with clean, crisp, high quality pages and cover. The photos are wonderful. The Table of Contents is very useful. I splurged on the book jacket and it's great. I do wish it wasn't so expensive or there was a price break for multiple orders... but in my case, "you get what you pay for" and I'm very please with what I received. Thank you to customer service for your assistance and to the whole team that created my book. I will order again!
I was a customer of Blog2Print for 10 years and was generally satisfied with the result of turning my WordPress blog into an annual book. Until this year, that is. WordPress changed a few things including how pictures are inserted and Blog2Print won't support the new format. Wow! I guess they've decided that adjusting to blog site changes is not necessary to their future. I was told to reinsert all of the photos as they are considered "figures" now and not images. I tried to change the HTML code (what they actually told me was my only alternative!) but it is not a simple thing to do - trust me (and I have some data processing background). If you can't make this process simple, you likely won't remain in business. I was finally informed that I should look for an alternative by their customer service manager for XanEdu(the company operates under this name) - good advice for me, but not for them as I found one with 20 minutes of being told that. My book was produced (with all "figures" or "images" or whatever they're referred to now) within about 20 minutes after that. I highly recommend PixxiBook.com now!
I never got to the point of actually ordering a book as the creation process was so frustratingly restrictive that I gave up. There is no ability to insert pages except at the end. There is no ability to modify the page structure or format. There is no easy ability to edit page contents. I could go on...
On the plus side, the blog slurping function worked very well, bringing down every entry and accompanying photographs. But the editing functionality was so terrible that I decided not to proceed rather than create a book the way Blog2Print thinks it should look instead of the way I want it to look.
As others have said, the process is very restrictive. I had two books printed for my dad and brother who rode their bikes across the country and blogged about it. The print quality was very disappointing. Some photos looked ok but others (taken from the same camera, same resolution) were extremely pixilated.
I've printed my blog 5 times with good results. This time the result was poor. The cover photo printed badly - blurry and indistinct because it printed larger than the proof copy. Customer service was no help at all. My book was almost $200. I feel very cheated.
