Are you juggling beta reader feedback, rewrites, and queries, and now you have to think about marketing?

Can't you tell a few friends on social media, and the book takes off to the bestseller list?

If it was only that easy!

An author's website is THE most critical part of your marketing plan, and here are five reasons why it matters so much:

Personal Domain

 Grab your chunk of the internet! Your website is the only space that you FULLY own and control. It’s where your unique voice, creativity, and brand can shine! Social media frequently changes rules and algorithms and owns your content once placed on their channel. 

Connecting with Readers

A website showcases your bio, blog, and latest news. It allows you to give teasers about your upcoming publication, keeps your readers informed of your events, enables you to run contests and giveaways, and much more.  

Professional Presence 

A well-developed author website stands out to editors and agents as they sluice through the pile of queries they receive. It shows that an author understands the focal point of marketing by establishing a website that speaks the unique message of their book to their readers. 

Sales

 E-commerce is a crucial part of your site and allows you to sell your publications and other products. It also helps you directly connect with your audience. 

Newsletter List

An email list is still the #1 best strategy to gain online sales. Your newsletter sign-up on your website will create a list for future sales and can build a launch team for your book. Launch teams are a valuable tool for getting the word out about your publication.
