Author Web Sites
Purposeful Web Design
 Dorothy Hearst WebsiteYour Web site should be more than an electronic brochure. It should convey who you are and what your work is about; in other words, your brand as an author. We work closely with our clients to create digital personas for them. Each site is custom designed, based on a proven process that enables us to articulate your goals and aesthetics. The result: a site that's truly your online counterpart.
See our portfolio for examples

A Turnkey Approach
We'll handle all the details of creating your Web presence, from concept to design, production, and finished site. We’ll help you secure or transfer your domain name and host your site on one of our business-class servers. We'll provide you with extensive reporting about site traffic and we’ll teach you how to interpret the numbers so that you can make informed decisions about your marketing and promotional efforts. In short, we'll take care of the key technology so you can focus on promoting your current book and writing your next work.

Content Management that Puts You in the Driver’s Seat
Penny Vincenzi WebsiteOnce the site is built you’ll have the option of having an AuthorBytes account rep make changes for you, or you can make changes yourself using the AuthorBytes Content Management System (CMS). AuthorBytes CMS allows you to easily change the text on key pages, such as your event listings, news items, and blurbs for your books. If you can type, you can update your AuthorBytes site!
