What is one thing that probably every author should have? The answer, an author website.
Having an author website can be very beneficial by providing easy access for readers as well as one's own personal space to advertise their author branding, author platform, and published stories and books. Now, although you could hire someone to make a professional author website for you, why not create one yourself? Doing it yourself can help you save a lot of money and create something unique that matches your book genre or personality. As I'm sure you're aware of, the image above is a snapshot of my author website that I built from scratch, and I just love it! After trying multiple different designs on different web providers, I finally have settled on one I not only like, but that matches my personality. Interested in creating your own author website?
