Scene 1:

The Meet Cute

Let’s start our story off right! This ain’t a coffee shop, but let’s learn all the details of your dream author website via video chat after you submit your answers to my brief survey linked below this section.

Prior to our initial icebreaker chat, I will give you access to my website copy plan & template (a $19 value). Together, we’ll go over any questions you may have as well as detail everything you need for me to begin working my magic!

Scene 2:

The Dress Compilation

All the great romantic comedies have the fun sequence where the heroine changes clothes or goes on a shopping spree. At this stage, you collect and gather all the bits of information you want me to use. I highly recommend every client to fill out the website copy plan & template, so I can set up your dream website up exactly how you want it.

If you’re lost, don’t fret! Every Cinderella has a fairy godmother, right? I recommend finding a few author websites you love and collecting their links to send to me, and we can set up another brief call to go over a few things to help get you started!

Scene 3:

The Makeover

Once you’ve arranged all the pieces and have set up your self-hosted WordPress site via your choice of webhost providers, I’ll take over and take your website from drab to fab! We’ll start with my core four demo pages using your author logos & branding.

From there, I will customize your site based on your previously supplied preferences. Once the first draft of the design is complete, we’ll chat over email (video if necessary) about all the tweaks you’d like improved. My primary focus is perfecting your home page. Once your home page is approved, I will then shift to the other pages with you.

Scene 4:

The Happily Ever After

When the full website design is complete, I will direct you to the plethora of how-to videos & blog posts for all general questions on how to navigate your WordPress site & on how to make minor customizations in the Divi theme. If you have a detailed, personal question, I will help you as best as I’m able; however, in extreme situations, I may charge an hourly fee after my design services are complete.

Timeline

What you get is a fully customized, functioning website you can add onto as you get more familiar with the platform. Typically, this whole process can wrap up in under two weeks when enough detail is provided prior to the design phase. However, in some circumstances, this process could expand to closer to a month.

This process completely depends completely on your needs and how much detail you provide in advance.

I always recommend hiring me only after you have a clear vision of what you crave in your author website to avoid added fees down the road.
