Website Development

For authors who want a website, we can develop a clean site that helps people learn more about (and order) your book.

Step 1: Schedule a free consultation by clicking the button above, fill out your information, and Storyhound will reach out to schedule a time to meet (either virtually or in the Chicago area).

Step 2: We’ll talk through your project, including your vision, price, and timeline.

(Note: Pricing varies based on the size and complexity of your site, typically $750–2,000).

Step 3: During the meeting, we will create a WordPress account on your behalf (your login and password, so you have greater control over the website).

Step 4: Upon agreement, Storyhound develops an outline of your website, including a list of pages (sitemap), a rough outline of the information you will need, and a few examples for you to provide feedback on.

Step 5: We will develop a few major pages (home, about, etc.) for you to review and approve.

Step 6: Following approval of those pages, Storyhound will develop the rest of your website.

Step 7: After the project is over, Storyhound will walk you through some basic functions so that you can make updates on your own (ex: creating a new blog). Congrats, you now have a website!

(Note: Storyhound will always stay available for any minor questions or requests. We’d be happy to help. Larger additions or changes can be scoped as a follow-on project.)
