You already have your books, blurbs, reviews and links in one place. The website pulls straight from there — nothing to copy-paste.

02

Pick a template

Choose one of five designer templates, swap fonts and colors, choose your background image. Switch templates any time without losing anything.

03

Add your domain

author.insidestory.app/yourname is free and online instantly. Add a domain you already own, or buy through us — your custom domain is included in the price, with all the technical stuff handled for you.

What's inside

Everything an author site needs.
Nothing it doesn't.

Live from your Inside Story

Add a book or update a blurb in Inside Story — it's on your website the same second. Reviews, release dates, retailer links, all of it.

Your featured book, always current

Your site automatically moves your latest book through every stage — "Coming soon," to beta or ARC readers wanted, to "Available now" — with the right call-to-action at each step. No manual updates needed.

Custom domain in one click

Bring your own .com or grab a new one free with your site, with all the technical stuff handled for you.

Built for books

Cover-first layouts, series grouping, reader signups and newsletter capture — designed for what authors actually need.

Fast. Anywhere.

Your site loads fast on every device — desktop, tablet, or a phone in line at the bookstore. Built to look great wherever readers find you.

Newsletter & beta readers

Run beta, ARC, and reader signups through Inside Story. Sync your list to MailerLite, Kit, or keep it in your Inside Story reader list — your call.

Inside Story author websites are so easy to navigate. I'm able to make tweaks to the design myself or just leave it to automatically update every time I release a new book! I now have an eye-catching site where readers can check out my books and click a direct link to purchase.
