A professional website is essential for any creative. Yet, authors often seem to miss the mark, placing it at the bottom of their infinitely long to-do list. But make no mistake: an absent or lackluster website won’t cut it. Every time you fail to impress a new visitor, you lose way more than just one new fan or industry contact. You lose all of the people that might have told about you and your books as well.

We love being authors. Both my husband and I (Mike and Alvaro) have been publishing novels since 2016. Mike has been a guest on multiple podcasts, including Writing Excuses. We’ve attended dozens of conferences and befriended hundreds of authors. We know the biz. And we know what authors want.
