You’ve often heard us say that your website is like your digital home base- especially once you’ve left social media. But your author website can be so much more than an online business card! If done well, your website can foster that all important “like-know-trust” factor with your readers and become your book-selling headquarters. Today, we’ll discuss how. Listen in!

Tune in to Hear:

  • Why updating your website regularly can boost your Google ranking—and simple tweaks that make a big difference.
  • The essential elements every high-converting author website needs—from branding to your book sales page.
  • The #1 question to ask when auditing your homepage
  • What most authors get wrong on their About page—and how to write one that actually helps sell your books.
