AUTHOR WEBSITE DEVELOPMENT SERVICES

A Website That Actually Represents You as an Author.

Most author websites are a rushed WordPress setup or a template someone filled in with a book cover and called done. We build from the ground up, around your books and your readers, so the site works as a real part of your publishing presence instead of just a page that technically exists.

WHY YOUR WEBSITE MATTERS MORE THAN YOU THINK

Your Social Media Profile Is Not a Website. Readers Notice the Difference.

Author Image

A lot of authors treat their website as an afterthought because most of their readers find them on social media anyway. That works until it does not. Social platforms change their algorithms, accounts get restricted, and the audience you built somewhere else is not actually yours. A website is the one place online that belongs to you completely, where readers can find your books, learn about you, and contact you without a platform deciding whether to show them your content.

We build author websites that function as a proper home for your work, not a placeholder page with a buy link. That means a site designed around your genre and your visual identity, built to load quickly, show up in search results, and give readers a reason to stay longer than thirty seconds.

What Goes Into an Author Website

Every author website we build covers the pages and features that actually matter for selling books and building a readership.

Homepage Design

A homepage built around your books and your author brand, designed to tell a new visitor who you are and what you write within the first few seconds of landing on the page.

Book Pages

Individual pages for each of your titles with descriptions, buy links, reviews, and any other details readers need before they decide to purchase.

Author Bio Page

A properly written and designed about page that gives readers context about who you are without reading like a resume or a press kit nobody asked for.

Blog Section

A section for updates, articles, or announcements that gives readers a reason to come back and gives search engines something to index beyond your static pages.

Mailing List

A contact form and newsletter signup built into the site so readers have a direct way to reach you and you have a way to reach them back.

SEO Optimization

Every site we build loads correctly on mobile, is optimized for search engines, and does not require a developer to update once it is live.

HOW IT WORKS

How We Build Your Author Website From Brief to Live

Discovery Session

We start by going through your books, your audience, and what you want the website to do, so the build has a clear direction before anyone touches a design file.

Design Concept

We put together an initial design concept based on your genre, your visual identity, and the pages your site needs, and send it over for your feedback before development begins.

Content Collection

We gather everything the site needs from you, bio, book details, photos, and any existing copy, and fill in anything that is missing before the build starts.

Development

The site gets built to the approved design, with every page, feature, and integration set up and tested before anything goes live.

Review and Revisions

You go through the finished site and give feedback before it launches. Anything that needs adjusting gets handled at this stage so the live version is exactly what you signed off on.

Launch and Handover

Once approved, the site goes live and we hand it over with everything you need to manage it yourself, login details, a walkthrough of how to update it, and any ongoing support included in your package.

WHAT YOU WALK AWAY WITH

What Changes When You Have a Proper Author Website

Most authors who put off building a website do so because it feels like a big project with unclear returns. The return becomes obvious once it exists. A properly built site changes how readers find you, how media contacts research you, and how seriously the whole publishing operation gets taken by anyone who looks you up.

  • A permanent home for your books online that you own
  • Readers able to find you through search, not just social
  • Buy links and book info in one place, easy to share
  • A mailing list that belongs to you, not a platform
  • A site that looks right on every device readers use
  • Something to point media, agents, and readers toward

Client Feedback

What Authors Are Saying

Marcus Webb testimonial

Marcus Webb

Memoir

I had a WordPress site I'd built myself in 2019 and hadn't touched since. Sent the link over when they asked and felt embarrassed doing it. New one launched three weeks later. My publisher saw it before I announced anything and texted me about it.

Sofia Reyes testimonial

Sofia Reyes

Romance

Needed a mailing list, a shop, and a blog on one site without it looking like three different websites stuck together. That's what I got. My old site took forever to load and nobody ever mentioned this one being slow.

James Hartley testimonial

James Hartley

Business & Finance

I wouldn't have connected the website to the speaking bookings increase if someone hadn't pointed it out. The bio page frames me differently than I'd been framing myself. I've reused that framing in pitches since.

Priya Nair testimonial

Priya Nair

Self-Help

Sent a Pinterest board and two author sites I liked the feel of. What came back didn't really look like either of them. Sat with it for a day before I understood why it worked better than what I'd sent.

Leo Fernandez testimonial

Leo Fernandez

Fantasy

My brief was basically 'feels like the world in my books but don't make it weird about it.' Not easy to work with. They came back with three directions and one of them understood exactly what I meant without me having to explain it further.

Tanya Brooks testimonial

Tanya Brooks

Children's Books

The site had to work for kids who'd land on it and parents who'd actually buy from it. Those are two pretty different people. School visit requests have nearly doubled since it went live, which I didn't anticipate at all.
