Author Websites Built With Tertulia
From debut novelists to seasoned nonfiction writers — see what authors are building with Tertulia
Tertulia enabled me to quickly establish a professional web presence that beautifully reflects my author brand...
With a growing backlist, I needed a platform that could keep up—and Tertulia delivers. I can showcase books, run promotions, and stay in control, all while saving time and focusing more on writing.
Tertulia's author website builder was a lifesaver! I love my new site. I could have never created one as nice on my own. I am so happy to have partnered with Tertulia.

Fantastic websites for authors
Not only is this website easy to create and use, but the customer service is outstanding. I love how I can personalize all the details to make my site unique. It's incredibly simple to add books and reviews, and all the pages are customizable. They are always adding new features, which is helpful to stay up-to-date on trends and marketing.

This was the answer to my promotion problem
This was the answer to promoting and highlighting my books more effectively than Amazon ever could. The inclusion of a blog and email list registration and events schedule was icing on the cake. So glad I found Tertulia!

Amazing, wonderful experience
Truly, one of the best companies I've ever worked with. Customer service, especially Iliya, was magnificent. I had a beautiful website set up in less than an hour with a minimum of problems. Then, working with their customer support, they helped me make the website much better, more functional, and more attractive. A great company to work with. 100% recommendation.

I set up a professional author website in less than an hour
I couldn't believe it actually. I spent a week trying to get Ghost and Wix to look right. Even the DNS set up for my domain was almost instantaneous. If you need an author website, this is the fastest best way to get up and rolling and selling books.
