Your website serves as a cornerstone of your Author’s Platform, a vital tool in establishing your online presence and connecting with your audience. Do you have a website that truly reflects your brand as an author or speaker? Or perhaps, you are contemplating the benefits of having not just one, but two, specialized websites to cater to different facets of your career?
At Live For Excellence Productions, we specialize in crafting websites that are not just visually appealing but also resonate with the essence of your authorial and speaking persona. Understanding the unique needs of authors and speakers, we offer a range of packages designed to either breathe new life into your existing website or build a completely new, tailor-made digital platform for you.
Our services include:
1. Custom Website Design: Whether you’re looking to create an author website, a speaker’s portfolio, or a combination of both, we tailor our designs to your specific brand and goals. Our team ensures that your website is not only stunning but also user-friendly and engaging.
2. Website Revitalization: If you already have a website but feel it doesn’t do justice to your current status or ambitions, we’re here to revamp it. From updating the design to optimizing the content, we transform your existing site into a dynamic and modern platform that captivates your audience.
3. Dual Website Creation: For those who wish to separate their authorial identity from their speaking engagements, we offer the creation of two distinct yet interconnected websites. This approach allows you to target different audiences effectively while maintaining a cohesive brand image.
4. Responsive Design: In today’s mobile-centric world, we ensure that your website is responsive and provides a seamless experience across all devices, be it desktops, tablets, or smartphones.
5. SEO Optimization: We don’t just build websites; we optimize them for search engines to enhance your online visibility and attract more visitors.
6. Ongoing Support: Our relationship doesn’t end with the launch of your website. We offer ongoing support and updates to ensure your digital presence continues to thrive.
Embrace the full potential of your Author’s Platform with a website (or two) that truly represents you and your work. Live For Excellence Productions is here to turn that vision into a digital reality. Let’s create a space where your audience can connect with you and your stories in a more meaningful way.\
