Designs will be responsive, meaning optimized for viewing on mobile devices. Once a basic template is selected, your package includes our customized design presentation.

Having a blog built into your website is what lets you to add regular new content, giving readers incentive to return to your author website after their first visit. It also keeps your site “in motion” with new content to be regularly searched and indexed by search engines.
  3. Website Pages: We suggest each site include the following pages: HOME / AUTHOR BIO / ABOUT THE BOOK / MEDIA / BOOK CLUB QS / OTHER WRITINGS/PRODUCTS / APPEARANCES / REVIEWS / CONTACT / BLOG. In some cases you’ll need fewer pages to start with and will want to add more later. You’ll be able to do that easily and without incurring additional charges, but we’ll help you if you need ongoing assistance, too.

  5. Matching Social Media Artwork: We’ll also provide you with a matching Twitter background design and free Facebook image, designed to help maintain your brand look and feel across your social media platforms.

  7. Social Media Integration: We’ll install plugins that allow readers to share your content across a variety of social media platforms, including Twitter, Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn, Pinterest and Goodreads. PLUS, we’ll install buttons that readers can click to head directly to your own social media landing pages, including your Facebook page, Twitter, Goodreads, Pinterest and more. Social media is the fastest, least expensive way to build your “tribe” – that platform of loyal readers and potential readers. More info on social media training is available HERE.
  8. Traffic Analytics: We’ll install Google Analytics tracking and show you how to monitor where your readers are coming from, how long they spend on your site, which content is resonating most with readers and more. Knowing who visits your author website and how will help you decide where to put your author marketing efforts and best cater to your readers’ needs in order to create a loyal following.
  9. Email List Integration: We’ll set you up with Mailchimp, an email list service (free until your list reaches big #s) so that folks can subscribe to your site, and you can develop that all-important email list. We also set your website up to automatically “push content” to that email list, so every time you blog, your readers are notified.
  10. RSS Feed/Subscriptions: Each website we build includes an RSS feed and subscription capability for your blog, allowing readers to be notified via email our their own RSS reader that you have new content available to read. Likewise, we’ll help you set up a subscription form for those who’d prefer to keep up with you by email, and install a “Send to Kindle” button to let folks send your words right to their Kindle devices to read at their convenience.
