It’s good to get your website up and running ahead of the book coming out. Speak with your Publishing Consultant about a website and they will have one of our Marketing Team contact you.
The first thing is to choose a domain name e.g. your author (or pen) name, or the title of the book. We will check if the domain name is available; if it has already been registered we will suggest alternatives. Once you’ve decided on a name we will register it for you together with one year’s web hosting.
We will then get started on the design of your site, which will typically incorporate the following pages: homepage, about the author, about the book, buy the book, contact. The site can also include images of you (if you so wish) and the book cover. It will also contain links to your personal book page on the likes of Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
People buy books online, showcase your book with your own dedicated website.
