Let AALBC.com Maintain Your Official Web Presence

Instead of telling readers to search for you on Facebook or Amazon, direct them to go to your website (yourname.com).

Why Should I forward my Domain to AALBC.com?

  • It’s free! (provided you are one of the more than 7,700 authors already profiled on the website). If you are not profiled on AALBC.com simply purchase an Author Profile—you get all the features of a full-blown website at a much lower price.
  • We provide all the features and functionality of an actual website.
  • It’s a great way to quickly establish your online presence, especially if you’re not ready, or don’t want to build and manage your own website.
  • An AALBC.com Profile Page is the next best thing to a standalone website. It provides all the information readers expect including your biography, photographs, videos, links, social media feeds, and social sharing buttons. Each of your books will have its own page which includes buy buttons, a synopsis, embedded video, links to awards, an excerpt, and more.
  • We do all the work. AALBC.com has a 25-year track record of maintaining author information on the web.
  • We are optimized for search. AALBC.com’s web pages are quickly indexed and our relatively high page rank improves the likelihood your content will be easily discovered in search.
  • It’s better than using social media or an Amazon page as your main web presence. Unlike Amazon, we will link to other websites; and unlike social media your information will be professional presented with all the relevant author information and book metadata. We are not suggesting that one should abandon those platforms; we are saying they should not be one’s primary web presence.
  • You will effectively have a full-featured website for a fraction of the cost and without worrying about a disappearing webmaster.
  • You'll be in good hands. Troy Johnson, AALBC.com’s webmaster, has 30 years of web development experience and he has taught web design at the college level.

Can you give me a couple of examples of authors who already do this?

  • Christopher D. Burns (ChrisDBurns.com) official website is described in the video above.
  • The critically acclaimed author, Dr. Elizabeth Nunez (ElizabethNunez.com) has used AALBC.com as her primary web presence for years.
  • And of course, AALBC.com’s founder takes advantage of this service: TroyDJohnson.com.
  • This service was officially launched in April of 2017, and an increasing number of authors have come to embrace AALBC.com as their home.

Can I use my domain name for email?

  • Yes, having an email address that uses your domain name (e.g., author@yourname.com) is more professional and also reinforces your brand.

When my website is ready, can I easily redirect my domain to another web host?

  • Of course. We will do all the work on AALBC, but you retain ownership and complete control of your domain name.
  • Even if you point your domain name to another website, you will never lose your AALBC.com Author Profile. Your profile will last as long as the life of AALBC.com.
