You can create a really nice site with very little effort and even less money! I have created dozens of websites on many platforms and have created this course to teach to independent authors, like myself, the most effective method of creating a great author website.

In over ten years of web development I have found WordPress to be the most powerful and easy-to-use platform out there and it is continually getting better with each update.

Whether you want a blog that you can post articles to directly from your iPhone or Android, or if you want just a static informational website, this course will cover it. Well discuss what kind of content you should provide, as an author and how best to provide it. Ill give you a simple way to collect email addresses of your fans so that you can contact them with future news.

I hope you enjoy the course – please contact me with any questions!
