Create an Author Website for Free with Revvue

Choose one main purpose for your author site

Decide what a visitor should do next. A published author might highlight their latest book and retailer links. An author preparing a release might lead with ARC reader interest. If you want to stay connected between books, make newsletter signup the clearest action.

You can include several options, but give the main one a clear heading and explanation. A visitor should understand what you write and where to start without searching through unrelated links.

Prepare your author website content

• Author name and biography: use the name readers will recognize and a concise introduction to your writing.
• Book cover and description: explain the premise and genre in language intended for readers.
• Book links: direct visitors to the relevant retailer or book information.
• Reader invitation: explain what newsletter subscribers or ARC readers will receive.
• Contact and social links: include the channels you want readers to use.

Use your own images or images you have permission to publish. Read the page on a phone as well as a larger screen.

Build and publish your site in Revvue

1. Join Revvue and open your author website dashboard.
2. Choose the available template and theme that suit your main reader action.
3. Fill in your author details, book information, and public page name.
4. Configure newsletter and ARC sections where you want to collect interest.
5. Save your changes, then select Publish.
6. Open the published page and check its links and signup flow.

The dashboard shows your public author page address. Use the address shown there when sharing your site.

Understand what your free site does

Revvue’s author site brings your book information and reader signups together. Its dashboard includes subscriber management and CSV export. Newsletter signup collection gives you a list to work with; it does not by itself establish an automated email campaign.

Use the options shown in your account to choose the sections readers will see. For questions about free access and optional paid plans, read the Revvue plan FAQs.

Give readers a reason to return

Link your site from your author bio, social profiles, and appropriate book back matter. Update it when a book becomes available or an ARC invitation closes. Keep the signup message accurate: if you promise occasional release news, deliver that rather than unrelated frequent messages.

Review visits, signup activity, and book-link interest in your author dashboard. Use those signals to improve the page’s clarity instead of adding more competing calls to action.

Quick answers

Can I create an author website for free with Revvue?

Yes. You can create and publish an author website with your biography, book information, and links. Newsletter and ARC signup collection require a Bookworm or Bookworm Pro plan.

Can an author website track actual book purchases?

Revvue tracks activity on the author page, including page views and featured-book clicks. A click to a retailer does not confirm a purchase. Use retailer order reports to check sales.

Does newsletter signup collection send emails automatically?

Collecting a signup builds your contact list. Export subscribers from Revvue and use your chosen email service to manage sending and subscription preferences.
