More and more publishing companies are taking advantage of the World Wide Web to spread
the word about themselves and their books. The quickest way for the average reader to learn
more about who you are, what you publish, and how to contact you is by visiting your website.
(An ideal website URL is easy to remember, or at least easily located through search engines).
Here are a few links that you may find helpful for building and maintaining your own web
site.
