Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost?
We’re currently offering a 30 day free trial during the beta period. After that, it will cost $9.99 per month (billed monthly) to host a website and access all editing and design features.
Do I need to own a domain name already?
No — if you don't own a domain name yet, you can register for one through your website dashboard when you’re ready to make your website live. We’re offering a free custom domain to authors during the beta period. Custom domains registered through BookBub will be charged an annual renewal fee after the first year at our standard rate, which is currently $15. If you already own a domain name, we'll work with you to get your existing domain connected to your website at no additional cost.
Can I use my website after I make it while you're in beta?
Yes — we'd love for you to use the website you set up! Once you set up a domain, your website will be ready to use publicly. Contact us at authorwebsites@bookbub.com if you have questions about how to get started.
