We offer three options for getting your online presence up and running:
1. Two-day DIY courses
Our two-day courses are a fantastic introduction to web design for people looking to build their own websites. You need to be confident with a computer and willing to learn new technologies but that’s about all you need. Over the course of two days we will teach you how to set up a self-hosted WordPress website, modify the design and add your content. We also offer advanced sessions for those who want to add extra features and do more complex design and layout changes.
2. Out-of-the-box websites
This is a quick web solution for authors and individuals who need a site up and running fast. We build you a self-hosted wordpress site in two days and hand the shell over to you to fill with content. These websites are based on WordPress templates and we also give you the optional extra of adding bespoke design if you want extra modifications.
3. Bespoke author websites
Our author websites have been developed by publishing people for publishing people. We design the look of every site individually while the underlying structure is based on our author template that we have developed specifically to respond to the needs of authors and publishers. Our user-friendly template allows you to add books, link to websites where readers can purchase your books, link to your agent and publisher, feed news from your Twitter, Facebook and YouTube accounts and many more great features.
Ongoing maintenance
In addition to building your website, or helping you to build you own site, we have experienced web editors who can manage your website on an ongoing basis. They will develop exciting content (text, images and multimedia), edit and update your website and they can even do your social networking (Twitter, Facebook and so on) on your behalf. We suggest a minimum of 1 day per month per website.
We also manage websites for businesses and publishers and work with internal editorial and marketing teams to ensure our work is fully coordinated with any campaigns or events that are being organised.
We are publishing people first and tech people second. We understand how publishers work and how to get the most out of the web.
