    Self-publishing platforms provide the infrastructure for authors to publish and distribute their work. Platforms like Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP), Smashwords, and others offer tools for uploading manuscripts, setting prices, and distributing books to online retailers. They play a crucial role in making self-published books accessible to a wide audience.
