This package takes you further down the road towards a complete author website. It includes everything from the Tech set up package plus 5 websites pages with placeholder text (lorum ipsum.) I will also set up a free Mailchimp account for your email list, Google analytics so you can track visitors, and social sharing options.

You’ll get a live website ready to share with the world and launch your platform! All the set-up and a customizable multipurpose theme. Plus social media links, an email subscribe form, analytics tracking, and 2 more add-on features as needed. I will use your actual content to format 5 pages, your first blog post and a functioning contact form. I will create a simple placeholder banner and adjust basic design settings such as colors and fonts.

I build these websites using the WordPress platform and the theme Divi by Elegant Themes. If you are already familiar with WordPress, great! But if not I can create a customized walkthrough tutorial video of your website.
