Unleash your author brand with an author website.

There are few nonnegotiables in the book marketing space, and we believe having an author website is one of them.

Author websites…

A Website Designed With You, For You and With Your Needs Front and Center

A one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t work for author websites. You need a customized solution.

Authors need a digital storefront to be the hub of their business. If you’ve published a book, you’ve started a business and a website is a must-have investment! Not every marketing tactic is a great fit for all authors, but there is one thing every author needs: an author website.

In today’s digital age, a website is not just a way to stand out, it’s essential to fit in, connecting you with readers and guiding them on how to best use your book and message. Check out Season 4 of The emPowered Author Podcast for valuable insights on creating or improving your website for success.

Why do you need an author website, you ask?!

Websites are a must-have for authors and authorpreneurs. Not just any website, but one designed specifically for your author needs. Your success depends on it. Consider these factors as you build or level up your author website.

  • Your website is often the first point of contact for readers who want to know more. It’s crucial to make it easy to find and navigate.
  • A well-designed website can be a powerful connector, showcasing everything you offer.
  • Enhance your credibility while keeping readers and potential clients informed about your upcoming efforts and offerings.
  • To sell more books and deepen your relationship with readers, having a platform is crucial.
  • Your website should reflect your message and extend beyond your book to showcase you as the author behind it.
  • Don’t create your website alone. Get expert help from our team. Focus on what you love, and let us handle the rest.

Frequently Asked Questions

The execution of a website requires a collaboration with the author and the production team. Our goal is to help you strategize and create a meaningful website that will work for your needs in a more efficient and effective manner. However, there are other deciding factors that impact timeline including content, branding, photography, etc. Prior to moving forward with the development of a website, a kickoff strategy session is held to ensure everyone has clarity on expectations, timelines and requirements needed to make a beautiful end product. 

If you listen to Season 4 of The emPowered Author Podcast, you will hear our thoughts on a book website only. We believe that authors are bigger than their books. And because of that, we design websites that align with your author brand first and foremost. Of course, we recommend you have your book on your website, and even a unique webpage promoting it, but your message is what people want to hear!

Our Tips to Prepare for Developing a Website outlines everything you need to make sure the design process runs smoothly, including author headshots, branding, and content. If you’re missing components, our team can help. Let’s discuss what you need to get started with a strategy session.

Specifically, this includes expenses such as domains and hosting.
