Launch a Website for Every Author — Fast, Consistent, and Brand-Aligned

You run a publishing house or literary agency with multiple authors — but most don’t have professional websites. Building them one by one is slow and expensive. What if you could generate a full website for each author — with bio, books, blog, and SEO — in minutes, not weeks?

With Summrly, you can. Enter an author’s name and genre, and our AI builds a complete, branded website — ready to promote their work and grow their audience.

Why a Content-First Website Solves This

Most author sites are static — just a photo and book list. A content-first approach starts with the author’s genre or niche (e.g., “romantic suspense”) and generates a living website with blog posts, reader guides, and SEO content that ranks. This helps authors attract fans, improve discoverability, and sell more books — without writing a single post.

Step-by-Step Guide
  1. Create Your First Topic – Enter the author’s genre or series theme (e.g., “cozy mystery novels”).
  2. Set Up Your Content Focus – Define their audience (e.g., “fans of Hallmark-style mysteries”) and key themes.
  3. Add Keywords – Summrly suggests phrases like “best cozy mystery authors 2024” or “small-town murder books.”
  4. Brand Details – Add the author’s name, photo, book covers, and tone (warm, witty, etc.).
  5. Complete Setup – AI generates homepage, bio, books page, and first 3 blog posts (e.g., “Top 5 Small-Town Tropes”) — optimized for readers and SEO.

Enter an author’s genre or name below and let Summrly build their website in minutes — scale to your entire catalog with ease.

Case Study: Indie Publisher Launched 12 Author Sites in One Day

A small press had 12 authors but no budget for individual websites. They used Summrly to launch a professional site for each — all in one afternoon. Each site included a bio, book list, and 3 AI-generated blog posts tied to their genre. Within 6 weeks, 9 authors saw increased social media referrals, and two landed speaking gigs from website traffic. The publisher now uses Summrly to launch sites for every new release.
