Pauline Wiles, author website designer

Hello, I’m Pauline, and I’m an author too

With 6 of my own books, I have a personal track record of book marketing success.

Want to peek? There are 1200+ Amazon ratings for my debut novel.

When we work together, you gain business solutions from an experienced marketing partner. I will create your author website with meticulous attention to your author goals.

If you value quality and efficiency, delivered in a friendly and supportive way by someone who’s “been there”, then we should get to know each other.

Start by scheduling a friendly consultation so we can discuss your needs.

“As for the website that Pauline developed, it has far exceeded my wildest expectations. It is beautiful, contains every element I had hoped it would contain, is easy to navigate, uncluttered and streamlined—in short, it's one of the best book-promotion websites I have ever seen.”

— Prof. Patrick Hurley, nonfiction author

Love details? Hate surprises? Me too! I aim to empower you to make an informed investment decision.
