Web Design for Authors, Writers and Bloggers

We have been providing web design for authors, writers and bloggers for many many years, and have helped writers across a variety of genres to get their books, blogs and writings out there for the world to see.

Why do I need a website as a writer, author or blogger?

A website is your opportunity to promote your writing at any time of the day and night. It is a vital part of your marketing strategy. You have written your book and now wish the world to read it.

Your web site can shout your message locally or internationally… straight to your potential customers.

It is like having your very own bookshop that isn’t restricted by being on the second floor of a building, or hidden in the back streets of a rarely visited area of a town. It is easily accessible by anyone, anywhere in the world!

Despite what some may tell you, it doesn’t have to be complicated. That’s where we come in! Right from the very start, Gandy-Draper will ensure that you are looked after professionally and supportively.

How does it work?

Getting to know you

Initially we find out more about you and your writing genre/s. We chat about your books, your likes and dislikes – building a thorough picture of what will work best for you and enable more people to find and purchase your hard work!

We make suggestions for your website: layout, look and feel, functionality and of course how to get your point across. 

Design and launch

We provide you with a “first look” at how your website will look. This is vital so that all the hard work you have put into getting your words down is displayed in a way that you love.

Once you are completely happy with your design, your website will go live. We NEVER charge for a website until you are 100% happy with the way that it looks and performs.

Ongoing Support 

Unlike many web design companies, we NEVER leave you to cope alone. Most of our clients like us to update their websites for them… but many Authors want to do that themselves of course!

We can show you how to update your website as well as how to add a blog (if you want one) and send out newsletters to your mailing list.

The first step in web design for authors, writers and bloggers?

Simply get in touch and we can chat about your needs and start the process of working with a professional, friendly and hands-on company with a great reputation.

Testimonials from some of our authors, writers and bloggers

A clearly presented website that makes an impact. I’m very pleased with the layout, The print and graphics are well laid out.

Communication with Elle is by phone. Her warm, friendly voice makes it seem that she’s always pleased to talk to me.. She’s helpful and genuinely interested in giving a good service.

Jeannie van rompaey
Elle was recommended to me as someone who could make my website come to life. They weren’t wrong.
She listened carefully to the non-technical account of what I wanted, asked all sorts of pertinent questions and came back incredibly quickly with a superb design. Putting together the material was easy with Elle too. She made lots of excellent suggestions and was amazingly patient with my witterings and alterations. Her attention to detail is superb, and she would not allow us to complete until we were both totally satisfied.
I love her informal yet professional approach and have absolutely no hesitation in strongly recommending her website design expertise.
Beth Haslam

I’m a writer, so although I’m OK with words, my website was a train-wreck. Elle and Alan coolly marched in, worked their magic, and *Hey Presto*, I now have a website to die for. Nothing was too much trouble, and Elle designed, tidied and organised everything so that even a techno-dummy like me can handle it. I can’t recommend them enough, they were superb, and always there whenever I needed them. Thank you, Gandy-Draper!

I thank the day I met you. Thank you!

I asked Elle to come up with a crisp, clean website, using my favourite colour, red, in the mix. What I didn’t want was loads of fancy fonts and flashing lights and other stuff, because I wanted the content to be what people came to my website for, not the special effects.

Elle did all that, and it was like she read my mind, because if I had the skill to do it myself, it’s exactly the look I would have wanted. The after sales service is second to none as well. I’d recommend Gandy-Draper to anyone who wants a professional-looking website with great follow on service, at a price that doesn’t break the bank. Thanks Elle – you’re a Top Bird!

Sandra Piddock

I wanted a website that not only promoted me as an author and creative writing tutor, but one which created a brand. Elle surpassed my expectations and designed a website I’m so thrilled with I can’t stop looking at it!

Lorraine Mace

I’ve been with Gandy-Draper for some years now and find them excellent. Not being at all technically minded myself, there is always a friendly and helpful response to my not infrequent pleas for help. Any problems – usually when I’ve been tinkering myself – are quickly corrected.

Excellent service and a good product.

Lesley Tither

This is the second website built by Elle and it’s as gorgeous as the first (which was my author site Lorraine Mace). I am absolutely thrilled with the design and functionality. My competition entrants are all raving about how much easier it is to use than the old site. Well done, gandy-draper.com!

Lorraine Mace

I was recommended Elle to create my website by a fellow writer and she has not disappointed! Whilst I have no problems creating a novel, the thought of developing my own website was extremely daunting. I didn’t need to worry however, as Elle has been with me every step of the way, guiding me and make helpful suggestions. She has been very
patient with me and no question has gone unanswered, no matter how silly I thought it might be! I really like the fact that even when my website goes live, Elle will still be on hand for technical advice and support should I need it. I would not hesitate to recommend her services.

Susan Carew

I have worked with Gandy-Draper for many years on various projects and they are one of the few organisations where I can be absolutely certain I will receive a highly professional and courteous service based around my company’s specific needs. Most recently, Gandy-Draper upgraded my website and did a fantastic job. It was quick and cost-effective and has given my business a whole new look… fresh, clean, modern and mobile-friendly. Gandy-Draper combines sound advice with technical expertise and a happy demeanour to deliver a solution that is even better than the one you were originally looking for! I cannot praise Gandy-Draper highly enough and I recommend them without hesitation to any business looking to move forward in online marketing in its various forms and to gain that all-important competitive edge.

Rory Baxter

I’m very proud of my portfolio, having worked for a number of British broadsheet titles, in-flight publications, and travel magazines. However, I wanted to collate my various articles and present them in the most professional manner. Gandy-Draper designed a site with my needs very much in hand and I couldn’t be happier with matthewhirtes.com.

Matthew Hirtes

Elle – always a pleasure to work with.
