Beginning Spring 2009, Word Alive Press is now offering WEBSITE DEVELOPMENT services for authors that select the Platinum Publishing package. We’ll create a fully functional e-commerce website designed specifically for you and your title!
Seeing your book in print is a great feeling, but it’s just the beginning. Now it’s time to get the word out—let people know who you are and what your work is all about.
We’re in the business of building authors. This is why we continue to develop services that will help you market and grow your business. A website is a vital step in your overall sales and marketing plan. Remember, it’s not just about your book—it’s about you, the author, and your personal goals. And, for authors that select the Platinum Publishing package, the development of your new website is absolutely free!
Here's how it works...
We’ll partner together with you to create and design a website that is unique to your ideas. We’ll gather information from you in order to guarantee that you get the look and feel that you have in mind and that is best suited to your needs. Your website will promote you and your work and will drive customers to find out who you are what you’re doing, helping you communicate with your readers through blogging, event updates and so much more.
The monthly fee for hosting (including access to update your website
so you can keep it current and engaging) is $39.99.

The MOST IMPORTANT and UNIQUE feature
that Word Alive Press
will offer is
the integration of
your website into our
full distribution structure!
We are working to build the automation of your website into our software in order to allow for seamless order integration through our distribution center. In other words, when a customer buys a book from your website, the order will automatically be processed through our operating system. It will then be picked, packed and shipped directly to your customer from our warehouse without you having to handle a thing! At the end of each quarter we will print a report listing your sales, and a cheque for sales will be issued to you.
It’s that simple! Now the time-consuming process of filling orders that you get through your website will be looked after by us—your behind the scenes partner. We’ll handle all online transactions . . . including into the US. This will allow you to focus on the more important aspects of marketing your book!
(Please watch our website for pricing on website-distribution integration as it becomes available.) |
