Online Publishing

Remember: To boost your online presence and rank higher in Internet searches, be sure you:

  • Do: Maintain an author website
  • Do: Focus on excerpts, not entire works
  • Do: Post entire short works that have already been published
  • Do: Share links to other websites featuring your writing
  • Do: Publish across multiple pages; not all on one
  • Do: Check your formatting in various browsers
  • Do: Proofread!

And always stay safe! Here’s what an author should NOT do online:

  • Don’t: Post entire works you hope to publish elsewhere
  • Don’t: Use hard-to-read colors or fonts
  • Don’t: Post lengthy pieces
  • Don’t: Publish personal info
  • Don’t: Include explanations in case people “don’t get it”
  • Don’t: Post anything you’re worried might be stolen

If you need help nailing your brand, you’ve come to the right place. The designers know what questions to ask, what imagery translates best to the screen, and how to make your original idea come to life on your webpage. Conventional or quirky, your idea is in good hands with the Web Design Relief team.

Working with the Web Design Relief team was a total pleasure. They made the process easy, in-depth, professional, and lyrical. I wanted a site that leaned toward the bohemian and yet held an edge of minimalist sophistication. I couldn’t be happier with my very inviting and creative site! We should win awards with this one!

I cannot possibly detail how professional and helpful Web Design Relief has been in helping me launch my collection of short stories—there are just too many things they have done! They’ve been there for me all along the way, guiding me in developing my book and into the 21st century of web design and social media platforms. It could have been a bewildering journey; Instead it was one that was organized and so pleasant. Truly, Web Design Relief has blown me away by what they have created. The first time I watched my book trailer (who knew there were book trailers?), I cried. That team perfectly imaged what my book is about. I want to thank the whole team for their skill and creativity. I appreciate it so much.
