Most independent authors sell through a mix of retailer pages and social posts, right up until a reader searches your name and finds nothing to tie it all together. Site Spark builds you a proper author site, your books, your bio and your events in one place, live within a week, from £500.00 a year plus VAT.
One payment a year, not a monthly bill. No design jargon. No waiting weeks for a developer.
No back and forth over briefs or brand guidelines. Just the information a reader needs to see before they buy.
A short form covering your titles, retailer links, author bio and any events or press coverage. Fifteen minutes, done from your phone.
Your details go into the Site Spark author template: home, book catalogue, about, events, and a mailing list signup.
You review it, ask for any small changes, and it goes live on your own domain, ready for readers to find.
A lot of website offers for small businesses come as a monthly bill that arrives whether you're thinking about it or not. Site Spark is billed once a year, one predictable payment, plus VAT.
No. You fill in a short form about your books and bio, and we build the site around it. There's nothing to install and nothing to configure.
Social media is useful, but it isn't yours, and it doesn't show up when a reader searches your name on Google. A proper website gives you a permanent home for your catalogue, one that isn't at the mercy of an algorithm.
Small text and photo changes can be requested any time, so a new release or a new review can go straight on the page. If you want to make bigger changes yourself down the line, we can talk through what that looks like.
Hosting is included from £500.00 a year, plus VAT. If you don't already own a domain name, that's billed separately at cost. Anything beyond the standard template pages, such as direct on-site book sales or a members-only area, is quoted separately.
Tell us about your books and we'll have your site live within a week.
