When I looked at my completed website, it was so beautiful I honestly had tears in my eyes. It’s the site I’ve always dreamed of having. Alex had even taken it upon himself to add music to the book playlist so my readers could hear the songs that brought my story to life.
Thank you, Alex and Standout Books for the wonderful job you did with my book and website. It was a pleasure to work with such a professional, caring person and company. I’d highly recommend Standout Books to all my fellow authors.
I put off redoing my website for months because it seemed like such a mammoth task. [...]
Alex made the process of constructing my new website SO easy, and I am thrilled to bits with the result. After an in-depth call to listen to what I wanted, he put together a site that showcases my books in a visual, uncluttered way, and encourages subscription to my newsletter.
[...] Overall, my experience with Standout Books website design was outstanding. I highly recommend!

I am delighted with the update of my website. Rita was so helpful and easy to work with. Standout Books worked in a timely way with production and payment. Co-creating this website gave me increasing confidence in myself as an author.
I have hired more than one person/group to do websites for me. This is a great price for the product. And the product is absolutely as professional as it gets. You might be able to get it cheaper, you can definitely pay more, but they stay with you with limitless changes until they get it just the way you want. I strongly recommend you get your website here. Alex was great!
Standout gets an A+ in my book. During the web development process, they understood the vision, provided great suggestions, responded to all the change requests as the site came together. I felt as though they were partners who cared about the outcome as much as I did.
Standout does quality work and will work with you until you’re happy with the final product.
If you want a one stop shop for developing, marketing, or promoting your message – look no further than Standout Books!
I am so glad I came across Standout Books to build my author website. I could not believe that the owner responded to a question I asked before I signed a contract to build my cutom site. I knew I would be working with a professional team and someone I could trust. Alex worked with me all the way through the process and made great suggestions and ideas. No rush to get exactly what you want on your site. I have a beautiful website that is not a template and is built for my personality and my book. You are at the right place to get your author site built today and stop the search. Their program is simple and they will take you by the hand and get your message delivered.

QUESTIONS
Websites have gone from being a highly effective marketing tool to a necessity of doing business. In a marketplace where the definition of “professional” is less defined but more important than ever, a trustworthy website is often the deciding factor that turns possible readers into enthusiastic customers.
It’s a permanent, definitive statement about your brand that lets publishers and readers alike know that you’re a serious writer they can invest their time and energy in.
You don’t have to pay a fortune to a website designer to get a beautifully designed author website that converts at a high rate.
We’ve already taken care of the hard (and expensive) coding beforehand. Using these pre-coded elements saves time, which saves you money, without compromising on quality.
At the end of the day, the point of this service is to give you a website that makes you proud. Our designers are happy to work to your specifications and to add their own professional advice for your consideration. The only limits for your input are the technical limitations that govern a usable website.
You’ll be consulted at key stages of the design process, both for your general feedback and for your thoughts on visual and operational mock-ups. That means you’ll see how your website will look and work even before it’s created – no nasty surprises, and plenty of opportunity to make any adjustments you feel are necessary.
The average turnaround time is usually about three weeks from start to finish.
Please keep in mind that the time from initial design to creation of your website will differ according to how you want the site to look and work, and on any restraints imposed by obtaining graphics, images, and your feedback
Your author website design is paid in two 50% instalments: one before the job begins, and one after you are completely happy.
