Author Website
Establishing a web presence is another important piece of establishing yourself as a serious author. Whether you want a simple one-page site, a blog, or want to sell your own books direct, I can make you a custom professional-looking website like mine.
Standard website (features listed below): $300 (not including hosting costs or customizations.)
What’s Included
Home page
Header/branding, book details, info about you, profile picture, social media links, contact information, links to purchase books. You provide text and decide on content. You can provide images, or we can use Squarespace’s stock images.
Example: https://www.lisajmorgan.com/
Optional Included Extras:
About Me
Your story as an author. Let readers get to know you.
Example: https://www.lisajmorgan.com/about-ljm
Email form
Let readers, agents, or anyone else contact you easily.
Can be either it’s own page: https://www.lisajmorgan.com/contact-me
Part of the standard footer: https://www.lisajmorgan.com/
Or both.
Newsletter Signup
Currently offering Mailchimp integration or contact storage directly in Squarespace. If you use a different email platform, I may be able to connect it.
Part of the standard footer: https://www.lisajmorgan.com/
Could also be a dedicated page.
Detailed page per book or series
All about your book. Cover art, blurb, purchase links, the story of how it came to be, whatever you want to include.
Example: https://www.lisajmorgan.com/shattered
Storefront to sell direct to readers:
Full ecommerce storefont that can be used to sell books, merch, or whatever you choose. Payments handled by Squarespace.

Blog
Optional blog where you can connect with your readers.

External links
Add links to the main navigation to external sites. I have a link to buymeacoffee.com on mine, but it can go anywhere.

Other stuff
If there’s anything else you want to add that you don’t see here, let’s talk, and work out any additional costs.
What’s Not Included
I use Squarespace to build websites. You’ll need a basic subscription plan with them, which is not included in this price.

The $300 price is for the elements above only. Any customizations, custom graphics, or specific design requirements may be extra.
