Your name, your site.
Done in an hour.
A reader Googles your name. They find your site. Your books, your bio, your events, your newsletter. All in one place. It looks like you hired a designer.
Free to start. No credit card. Live in under an hour.
Every author needs a website. You know this. Your agent told you. Your publisher told you. That marketing course told you.
So you try WordPress. Pick a theme. Install plugins for SEO, for contact forms, for image optimization, for security. Update the theme. Update the plugins. Something breaks. Google “WordPress white screen of death.” Spend a Saturday fixing it instead of writing.
Squarespace is $16/mo. Looks great out of the box. But now you need your book covers in a grid, an event calendar, a newsletter signup that actually connects to ConvertKit. Three hours of dragging blocks around. Still doesn't look right on mobile.
You don't need a website builder. You need an author website. Books. Bio. Newsletter. Events. Custom domain. That's it. Everything else is noise.
Built for authors, not everyone.
Book showcase
Covers, descriptions, buy links, reviews. Your books look like they belong on a publisher's site.
Bio and about page
Your story, your photo, your credentials. Clean typography that makes you look professional.
Newsletter signup
Collect emails. Connect to Mailchimp, ConvertKit, MailerLite, or download a CSV. Your list, your rules.
Event calendar
Signings, readings, conferences, launches. Readers see what's next. You update it in 30 seconds.
Custom domain
yourdomain.com. SSL included. Point your DNS, we handle the rest. Live in 5 minutes.
Mobile-optimized
60% of your readers are on their phone. Every AuthorPage looks perfect on every screen size.
Blog
Write posts. Publish. No plugins. No themes that break on update. Just words on a page.
SEO built in
Meta tags, Open Graph, structured data, sitemap. Google finds you. You don't touch a single setting.
What “done” looks like.
You fill out a form. Book titles. Cover images. A short bio. Links to where readers can buy. Pick a color accent if you want. Or don't — the defaults look great.
You connect your domain. Three clicks. We handle SSL certificates, DNS propagation, all the technical stuff you shouldn't have to think about.
You share the link. In your email signature. On social media. In the back of your next book. When someone Googles your name, they find a site that makes you look like a real author. Because you are one.
What you'd pay somewhere else.

When someone Googles your name, what do they find?
Right now, probably nothing. Or an Amazon page you don't control. Fix that in an hour.
