Every Major Publisher

wants You to have a website!

The website will be your online hub and give you credibility. Every major publisher now requires that part of your PR campaign include a website as part of your marketing campaign.

So, what should you include on your author's website?

Of course, you want all of your basic information, but also things they need help finding. Adding a news page of upcoming events, book signings, and anything that sets you apart, like volunteer work related to your work that your readers will be interested in.

Here are some essential elements that writers should include on their website:

Bio
Photos
Free e-book downloads
Paid book and e-book downloads
Audio and video
Book information
Excerpts
Teading guides
Bolg Media coverage
Contact Information
Event Schedule Calendar
Interactive forms to contact you
A way to collect information in a CRM
and there may be more...

The key is to organize the information well. The menu should look simplistic, with clear titles and a dropdown menu to clarify what is on each page.

Please provide a short bio with photos; each book should have its own page with a description. Your blog will be an integral part of the website, and we recommend writing one or two weekly entries—precise contact info so readers can contact you and a media page. A big part of being an author is to promote yourself. You are now becoming a brand.
