Websites & Blogs For Writers

You may be asking yourself, how important are websites & blogs for writers? Do they really matter? All you want to do is write and now someone is telling you that you need a website. Isn’t this just an expensive distraction to keep you from what you really want to be doing? Does any of this sound familiar? In today’s competitive book market, having an author website that clearly represents you and more importantly helps you sell books, is a must. It’s the first place your readers, potential agents, and even reporters will look.

This is the complete guide to creating an author website. Starting at the beginning, we will dispel the common myths of having a blog or website and then cover the basics:

  • how to choose your domain name,
  • how to choose your ideal platform,
  • what is the difference between a blog and a website and which specific content categories to include.

We will then cover the more advanced topics:

  • how do you manage to run a blog and write at the same time,
  • how do you keep your content organized and fresh.

You will walk away with a basic technical understanding of how to set up your WordPress website, strategies for dealing with the dreaded learning curve and the tools to claim your very own piece of the internet.
