Low-Cost Author Websites That Bring Your Writing To Life
If you’re on a budget but still want a high-quality, professional author website, then this package is your match made in Heaven.
For just £395 (then £25 per month)* we’ll provide you with a website designed specifically for authors, writers, and self-publishers, to promote both you and your work.
Even better, we’ll produce your author website in just one day!
In order to give you such a high-quality website at the lowest possible price, your website will be based on one of our in-house, pre-defined author website layouts.
Your website’s design will be tailored & customised to match your brand, book cover, colours & fonts, giving you a totally unique website at a fraction of the price you’d be charged elsewhere.
It really is an investment worth making. It will save you time, energy, and money compared to trying to do it all on your own.
If this option isn’t quite right please take a look at our custom author website, and our totally bespoke author websites.
*When your website goes live, it’s not the end of the story, it’s just the beginning of your online journey.
The £25 per month breaks down annual hosting costs, email, and software license fees into an affordable, low monthly cost.
More importantly, it also includes our ongoing support, including critical software & security updates, daily backups, and more, which we’ll manage for you, making the technical side of your website totally headache-free.
We want your website design experience to be a positive, painless experience by making it as easy, stress-free, and enjoyable as possible. At Quillsolo we’re here to help you.
