Create your Author Website

As an author, you’re probably gearing up to promote your book/s on social media. There’s no doubt this plays a role  – and an important one – in getting the word ‘out there’. But you’re not in control – it’s the pesky algorithm that decides which of your hard-crafted posts are seen by your potential audience of readers. What if it decides it’s not going to play ball? Few potential readers will see your posts – and the effect on your sales will be equally poor.

The answer? To have your own website. Not only does this act as a destination for people wanting more info on you and your books, but it also enables you to recruit subscribers for a newsletter – often cited as the single most effective way of building your audience.

How do you go about creating a website?

You need a professional designer; one who specialises in creating excellent websites for indy authors. Here at Winter & Drew, we want to help – but we recognise this is not one of our core skills. So we have found an expert designer, and are happy to recommend them to you.
