Blurb — Book Description, Keywords & Categories

Blurb — Book Description, Keywords & Categories — a premium, 100% offline digital tool by Aceplore. Runs entirely in your browser: no accounts, no subscriptions, your data never leaves your device.

A private, offline workspace for the retail listing — description, title, keywords and categories, every character counted live against the limits you set, with duplicate keyword slots flagged before you waste them — 31 tools in one, entirely on your device.

31 built-in tools in one app. A description editor with a live character count against an editable limit and an explicit overage when you go past it, saved versions, a side-by-side comparison with both counts, a structure guide covering hook, stakes, promise and call to action, an opening-hook scratchpad, a note on which light formatting survives, and a readability read-out of average sentence length and long-word share; title and subtitle with their own counts, series naming kept consistent across the list, the keyword slots each with its own count, a keyword idea list, the rules about what is not allowed in a keyword, and overlap detection that normalises phrases and flags a slot you are wasting on words already used; chosen categories with their full paths, candidates to request and a fit check against the description language; comparable listings and their prices as you record them, A+ content modules, review and editorial quote slots and audiobook listing copy; plus a back-cover version, a one-sentence pitch with a count, a pre-publish checklist, CSV export, reports and fully editable limits.

Editor, Versions & Compare. A real character count of the real string — spaces and line breaks included — against an editable limit, with the exact overage when you go past, plus saved versions and a side-by-side comparison with both counts visible.

Keyword slots & Overlap. Each slot counted separately, and an overlap check that normalises case, punctuation and spacing so “Time-Travel Romance!” and “time travel romance” are correctly seen as the same phrase competing for two of your seven slots.

Categories, Comps & Checklist. Chosen categories with full paths and candidates to request, a fit check against your own description language, competitor listings and prices you record, and a pre-publish checklist so nothing goes up half-done.

Blurb is a planning and organization tool for authors and publishers. Every figure it reports is computed to a published formula from the rates, measurements and figures YOU enter, and the rates are editable because retailers and printers change them without notice. Confirm the current rate card, page-count rules and file specification with your retailer or printer before you upload, and order a proof. Nothing here is a guarantee of acceptance, visibility, sales or income, and none of it is business, tax or legal advice. You are solely responsible for your own publishing decisions.
