✅ Stylish Homepage
The homepage houses the necessary functions, like showcasing your newest book, providing purchase links for other published works, introducing the author, and sending visitors to an external newsletter subscription like Substack.
 
✅ Use the Featured Book Page as a Landing Page
When you're promoting a new book, you can send viewers directly to the featured book page instead of your homepage. There, you can give them detailed information that wouldn’t make sense on a homepage to help them decide if the book is right for them.
 
Tip: Then when you have a new book to promote, just duplicate this page and swap out the images, text, and links.
 
✅ Impress Industry Professionals With a Press Kit
When you have a press kit, it makes the jobs of promoters and agents much easier. You don't need to send emails with large attachments when they ask for headshots, bios, or book details—just send them a link to your press kit.
