Why do authors need websites?

Having a good author website is still important even in 2019. To answer the question, as an author you need a website simply because they give authors credibility and act as their home on the web, directing information-seekers to where they can buy the book, connect with the author on social media, or book the author for a speaking engagement.

The best thing about having an author website is that you can sell your book online easy on your site. Bizzexpose designs best websites using the following tips for the authors.

• Responsive Design

Studies show that most visitors are mobile devices such as phones and tablets. Therefore, when creating a new website, we always consider making one that is responsive and mobile friendly. Responsive websites detect the size of the visitor’s device and adjust the layout and navigation, so it is easy to read.

• Multiple purchase links

While it’s tempting to keep things simple with just a few retailer links on your site, keep in mind that retailers are likely to check out your website before your book goes on sale. Link to all major retailers plus any specialty retailers you know will carry your book, in order to encourage them to carry more inventory of your title.

• Keep It Clean

Don’t clutter up your home page or other pages with unnecessary information and graphics. Think of “white space” as a design element in your website and make sure your website is visually appealing.

• Social active

We always make sure that your website has “social share buttons” that go with each post, book title, or page on your website. This allows readers and others a quick way to share your book, blog post, or other information on sites like Twitter, Facebook, and Pinterest. Give us a call today on 0312691190 or ask for a quote
