Professional Author Websites
Built for writers,
by a writer
Showcase your books, grow your email list, and establish your author brand without spending weeks figuring out the tech. The last thing you want to spend your creative energy on in a website. So, let me help!
Why Do You Need a Website?
Websites are a first impression. Whether you're querying your first novel or publishing your tenth, a website helps establish your credibility and connect with readers. It’s the first step to selling books—and selling yourself as a professional writer.
Discovery
Readers need a place to find you.
Legitamacy
Agents and publishers like a professional online presence.
Stability
Social media can disappear overnight.
Ownership
Your website is the one platform you truly own.
Everything You Need To Build Your Author Platform
Look Professional
I have designed hundreds of websites, and every website is made with the user experience in mind. It will be easy to navigate AND easy on the eyes. My website packages start out with a single page website to cover the basics, like your bio, author photo, your books, and your contact information.
Update Easily
Once the website is complete, I will send you a training video on how to update your website all on your own. You know, so you can add all those books you wrote while you WEREN’T building a website.
Hosting and Domain
Hosting can be the biggest annoyance of the website process, it’s necessary. But don’t worry, I got you covered! I’ll take care of all your hosting problems. No yearly fee. No stress.
If you don’t have a domain name, I’ll purchase it for two years. If you already have one, we can use what you already have.

Can't recommend highly enough!
I didn't really have a vision in mind when I hired Emily to redesign my author website, I just wanted something cleaner and more representative of my work (which has changed a lot over the years as I Frankensteined my website together). Her refresh absolutely blew my expectations out of the water. I truly love the result, and to top it off she was so professional every step of the way—organized, communicative, collaborative. I'm so happy I invested in a true pro who is also an author herself—she just gets it.

My Experience was Spectacular
I'm not knowledgeable about web design at all and had no clue where to even start, so having Emily there to create a clean, attractive website at an excellent price was such a relief. I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted, but she took my thoughts and turned it into something beautiful that truly represents me and my books. She even took the time to record a bespoke tutorial video using my specific website. My expectations were exceeded at every stage of the process.

The website she built was, and remains, amazing.
I reached out to Emily several years ago because my website was in desperate need of an overhaul. The one she built for me was, and remains, amazing. She provided detailed instructions on how to make changes myself once the site was handed over to me, which is huge because I am not a tech savvy writer. Also, on the rare occasions that I've needed to directly reach out to her because I just could not figure out how to do something, she responded immediately and was able to solve my issue. I can't recommend Emily enough!

Hi, I'm Emily!
As a writer, I know you'd rather spend your time drafting your next chapter than figuring out domains, hosting, and website design. That's why I created The Writer's Website, to help authors establish a professional online presence without the stress of doing it themselves!
