Let us give it a proper home.
Fill out the intake form in 20 minutes. Your author page goes live within 48 hours — ready to share with every reviewer, podcast host, bookstore, and librarian you reach out to.
A professional author page is a standalone web page that tells your story as a writer — your bio, your books, your press coverage, your speaking availability, and how to contact you. It's the page you send to reviewers, podcast hosts, bookstores, librarians, and literary event organizers. It replaces the scattered Amazon listing, outdated Goodreads profile, and generic publisher bio that most authors rely on by default.
A full author website typically costs $2,000–$5,000 to build and requires ongoing technical maintenance. A 1580 Creative author page is a single, professionally built page that contains everything a professional contact actually needs. Hosted by us, delivered in 48 hours, updated monthly for $29. For most indie authors — especially early in their career — a focused single page outperforms a sprawling multi-page website that nobody updates.
No. Many authors build their page before their debut release — giving them something professional to share with advance reviewers, early press contacts, and bookstagram readers. The page can be built around an upcoming release and updated the moment the book goes live. It's also useful during the querying process as a professional signal to agents and editors.
You complete our author intake form — about 20 minutes. It covers your bio background, book information, press and reviews you want featured, speaking availability, and how you'd like to be contacted. You'll also email your book cover images and any headshots to hello@1580creative.com. We handle everything else.
New book releases added to your gallery, updated events and appearances, new press mentions and review quotes, bio updates, and photo or cover image changes — all for $29/month. Cancel anytime. Especially valuable for authors who publish regularly or maintain an active events and appearances calendar.
Publisher author pages exist, but they're typically generic, slow to update, and buried inside the publisher's website. Having your own professional page — one you control, updated on your timeline, with your own URL — is the asset you send when a press opportunity comes through. Most traditionally published authors maintain both.
All of them. Children's books, middle grade, young adult, literary fiction, genre fiction, memoir, nonfiction, poetry. The intake form is built to capture what makes your specific work and voice worth discovering — regardless of genre or category.
