PROFESSIONAL WEBSITE FOR AUTHORS
Web Design
A professional author website is not optional. It’s essential.
It’s where your work lives online. It’s the first stop for readers, journalists, agents, booksellers, and collaborators.
Your Digital Front Door.
At Wildbound PR, we believe your website should reflect your voice, your values, and your story while making it easy for people to find what they need and take the next step.
We design sites that are beautiful, functional, intuitive, and built to grow with you.
We build clean, modern, fully responsive websites on platforms like WordPress, Squarespace, and Wix — tailored to your brand and ready to integrate seamlessly with your publicity, platform, and events.
Whether you're launching your first book or expanding an already-established brand, we work with you to create a site that’s clear, credible, and truly yours.
Website Development That Works
Your homepage should welcome visitors, capture attention, and offer a clear snapshot of who you are and what you do. It should highlight key content like featured blog posts, social feeds, media coverage, upcoming events, and teaser videos — all without overwhelming the user. It’s about creating a strong first impression and inviting deeper exploration into your site.
Home Page
Highlight all that you are with images, facts, Q&A, praise/blurbs, and a personalized bio (not an abstract laundry lists of accomplishments or curriculum vitae).
About
Include separate page(s) for each one of your books. Include any imagery, a brief synopsis, video, praise, blurbs, purchase links, and any other nuggets you can offer to help your audience dive into the world.
Books
Include links to coverage, pictures/video from events, blurbs, awards, a downloadable media kit, and everything else you can highlight. This page should be splashy, so make it visual.
Media Coverage
This is a simple page with your direct contact info (though you may want to create a secondary email account reserved for communication with your audience) and your representative’s info.
Contact
This page provides more context to your work. A blog is great and can be beneficial if you commit to creating original and relevant content on a regular basis. For a non-fiction book, you might want to include a Resources section to help readers dive deeper into your subject and establish your own credibility.
Resources or Blog
You need to optimize your website for social media friendliness, which means make it as easy as possible for visitors to signup for your mailing list and share your content through all social media channels.
Interactivity
Your website absolutely must include Google Analytics to monitor real-time site statistics, as well as basic SEO (search engine optimization) to boost discoverability.

“Within a matter of weeks, Jared and Julia of Wildbound Live took the National Book Critics Circle awards team from virtual production newbies to a superb virtual awards event, featuring several dozen pre-recorded videos and live hosting, all seamlessly interwoven. We were overjoyed with the intimate flow, the minimal stress, and the fact we could manage this all within a tight nonprofit budget. We’ll always be grateful to our Wildbound angels.”

“Wildbound didn’t just write a couple of press releases and call it a day. They read my book, understood everything I was going for with it, and worked hard to line up exactly the right placements and events around it. I could never have done that on my own.”
