Description
Create an author website that turns online visitors into long term readers and fans.
Many courses teach how to create a generic website. But as an author, you need something more than just a generic website.
You need a website that promotes your author platform. A website that builds your audience and sells books.
This course teaches you how to build a strong platform-promoting website.
Some of you might be thinking, "But I'm an author, not a web designer. How can I possibly create a website?"
Don't worry! I'll take you step-by-step through the whole process.
No experience necessary!
We'll be using tools like Wordpress and Brizy that make the process super easy and provide your site with a professional look.
We start with a blank slate, and when we finish, you'll have a website that will build your audience and sell your books.

I’m Jason Link, a published writer and a former English instructor. For over 20 years I’ve been practicing the art of writing and storytelling.
One of my passions is sharing the craft of story with those who want to learn. I have taught students from all over the world and have had the opportunity to teach in the US and outside the US.
For over five years, I lived in Nicaragua and during that time, I taught English and writing to students from a variety of backgrounds and cultures, many of whom did not have English as their first language.
I’m also the author of the Legender series, an epic adventure that Publishers Weekly calls a grand fairytale.
My readers tell me time and time again how fascinating they find the world of my story to be. Some even say that it has the complexity and intrigue of Tolkien’s Middle-Earth.
It is my privilege to share my experience with you in my courses.
