A free author website builder made for books, not generic portfolios.

HostingAuthors helps writers create professional book pages, author hubs, writing portfolios, mailing-list signup, blogs, podcast feeds, and direct bookstore options with AI assistance.

Build Your Free Author Website

Key features

  • Free permanent starter plan
  • AI Webmaster assistance
  • Book pages and author hub
  • Writing portfolio support
  • Custom domains on paid plans

Most generic site builders start with blank pages and leave authors to figure out the reader journey. HostingAuthors starts with the pieces a book website needs: a book page, an author profile, buy links, reader signup, reviews, FAQ, and room to grow.

Start with your book

Create a live public book page with cover, description, retailer links, reviews, FAQ, media links, and reader signup. The free plan is enough to publish a real book page.

Grow into an author platform

Paid plans add author hub, multiple books, mailing list, custom domain, blog or podcast features, and direct bookstore options.

Use AI to move faster

The AI Webmaster can help turn a cover image, sales page, or book description into polished author-site copy without making you learn web design first.

What your page should answer

A strong author or book website quickly tells readers what the book is about, why the author is credible, where to buy, how to ask questions, and how to stay connected for future releases.

Built for repeat promotion

Use the same link in social profiles, podcast interviews, newsletters, launch teams, QR codes, media kits, and book back matter. HostingAuthors keeps the page focused on reader action instead of generic web design tasks.
