Author’s website- a great way to find and keep readers

If you want to self-publish on Amazon, UK, then the first thing you’ve to do is find audience.

Some ways to convert casual readers to fans& audience are:-

About Website:

  • Create an attractive homepage. Include banner images of your chosen genre to make that first impression on your audience or potential fans.
  • Make use of proper colours to give that professional look to your website. Else employ professionals/ website designers for that touch.
  • Format the text on your website to be readable with appropriate font and small paragraphs. Use sub-headings on your home-page.
  • Use a clear & attractive picture of yours in the bio-page and across all social media sites.

Call to action

  • Ask your readers to sign-up in the web-site home-page to avoid rejection.
  • Give your readers an incentive for signing up for your newsletter, such as free e-book (created by expert e-book convertors) or other related yet interesting informations.
  • Place the sign-up button at the bottom of your book’s page visibly.

You and your site should be accessible

  • Include the pages: Home, Books, “About me”, Blogs; on your websites’ easy navigation bar. Update blogs regularly.
  • Have social media links displayed prominently as simple icons. Also make sure that readers can share your content on their pages easily.
  • Make it easy for your readers to buy your books by including a link (say kindle self-publishing, UK) which will directly take them to sellers such as Amazon, Barnes and Nobles, etc.
  • Include your author email in the “About Me” section& a contact page in the navigation bar. Be more accessible to your fans and bloggers who want to feature their book, organizers of conferences who are looking for speakers, or people who want to place bulk orders…
