The Process
Discovery + Branding
✦ 3-Hour 1-on-1 Discovery Session: Utilizing our specialized "Editor Identity Framework," we dive deep into your brand, your voice, and your goals. This informs the entirety of the design process to make sure your website is uniquely you.
✦ Focused Branding: I’ll create a branding kit tailored to your editor identity. This includes mood boards, logos, color schemes, and typography that will make your website and other marketing materials consistent and eye-catching.
Captivating Copy & SEO Optimization
✦ VIP Copy Week: I focus an entire week solely on crafting compelling web copy that engages readers and accurately conveys your author persona. This includes key pages like your ‘Home Page,’ 'About Me,' 'Services,' and 'Blog.'
✦ SEO Strategy: No point in having a great site if no one can find it, right? We'll make sure your website is primed for search engines, making it easier for writers to find you.
Design & Development
✦ Design Sprint: The design and development of your website will be completed last. Expect a responsive design that offers an excellent user experience, ensuring that writers will keep coming back.
✦ 2 Hours of Fine-Tuning: After the site is built, you get an additional two hours for tweaks and edits. Trust us, when we're focused solely on you, two hours is a lot of time to get things perfect.
Post-Launch Support
✦ Walk-Through: Once everything is ready, we'll have a session where I walk you through the functionalities of your new website. I teach you how to make updates on your own and answer any questions you have about Squarespace features.

Lingering Questions About Author Editor Design?
-
We generally have space for just two editor websites a quarte, and we usually book out a few months in advance.
-
To make the most of our time together, I provide you with some pre-work to complete before we start working together. This includes a target audience questionaire, design questionaire, and Pinterest board.
-
Edits can be made during the three weeks we work together and during the follow up, but I teach you how to make any further adjustments. More time may be available at my hourly rate if my time allows.
-
I’ll send all of your brand files in a .png format. If you need additional file types, I can provide these at my hourly rate.
-
You’ll need to fill out the questionnaires and set aside three hours for our branding session. We ask that you are available in a timely manner to provide feedback, as our timeline is highly dependent on having your response before moving forward. Please note we expect you to be available to answer questions and review materials within 48 hours.
-
We bill websites as 4 payments of $1,875. The final payment is due at completion of the website.
For example, the first payment would be due at the time of contract signing to hold your spot on the calendar and the remaining payments would be billed in succeeding automatic monthly payments leading up to the web design. The final payment would be due the month we complete the website.
You are welcome to pay in full earlier to have your website completed sooner.
