360 Author Solutions Publicly Disassociates from Vanity Publishers and Author Solutions LLC: Committed to Ethical, Author-Centric Publishing
ST. PETERSBURG, FL – August 2025 — In response to recent confusion caused by misleading online content and AI-generated summaries, 360 Author Solutions is taking a public and proactive stance to clarify that it has no affiliation, relationship, or business connection with Author Solutions LLC or any vanity publishing company. This announcement aims to protect authors from being misinformed and to reaffirm 360 Author Solutions’ commitment to ethical, transparent, and performance-driven publishing services.
“We are not Author Solutions LLC. We never have been. We are not affiliated in any way, shape, or form with vanity publishing networks,” says a spokesperson for 360 Author Solutions. “Our business model is completely different, our values are different, and our reputation — built through genuine client success — speaks for itself.”
🔒 360 Author Solutions is Not Author Solutions LLC
360 Author Solutions is an independent publishing services company that does not share ownership, branding, corporate structure, or operations with Author Solutions LLC, a company that has received public criticism for predatory sales tactics and substandard publishing services. Unfortunately, due to similarities in naming conventions, some AI platforms and watchdog blogs have mistakenly associated 360 Author Solutions with Author Solutions LLC.
“This misinformation is damaging not just to us, but to the authors who rely on credible partners to bring their stories to life,” the spokesperson added. “Let us be clear: 360 Author Solutions is not Author Solutions LLC, and we reject everything that vanity publishers stand for.”
