Arthur A – Web Developer

Strategic custom websites for your story, audience & goals. → SEO • Branding • Landing pages • E-commerce • Mobile optimisation

Overview

I am a web designer and developer specializing in custom websites, branding, and digital experiences for authors, publishers, creatives, and small businesses.

I design websites that reflect the personality, subject matter, and visual world of each project rather than relying on generic templates. My work combines thoughtful UI/UX design, typography, imagery, and responsive development to create websites that feel distinctive, professional, and easy to navigate.

I primarily build custom WordPress websites, with a focus on clean development, fast performance, mobile responsiveness, accessibility, SEO, and long-term scalability. I can also integrate newsletters, lead magnets, blogs, book sales, contact forms, analytics, and other marketing tools.

For authors in particular, I approach the website as more than a place to showcase a book. It should establish a strong author brand, support future releases, grow an audience, and provide a professional platform for readers, media, publishers, and speaking opportunities.

I can adapt the design and user experience to suit a wide variety of genres and audiences. I welcome projects from authors working across fiction, nonfiction, or multiple genres.

I also make sure clients are comfortable managing their websites after launch, including updating content, adding books or products, and handling routine changes themselves.

Have a book, author brand, or website project in mind? Get in touch to discuss your ideas and how I can help bring them to life.

Nicole Lieger — Fantasy Author Website

I designed and developed this website for fantasy author Nicole Lieger and her Yruvanian Transition series. The visual direction draws from the books’ lush, magical world, combining elegant typography, decorative patterns, custom icons, and warm natural tones to create an immersive but refined experience. The site includes book pages, world-building content, sample chapters, blog, newsletter and reader bonus integration, author information, contact functionality, and both English and German content, providing a flexible platform for future books in the series.

Liisa Eyerly — Historical Mystery Author Website

I designed and developed this website for historical mystery author Liisa Eyerly, creating a refined visual identity inspired by the world of ancient Rome and her novel Obedient Unto Death. The site combines rich historical imagery, elegant typography, and a warm, dramatic color palette to support the book’s atmosphere and Liisa’s broader author brand. It includes book promotion, blog content, biography, news and events, newsletter signup, purchase links, and contact functionality, with a structure designed to support future releases.

JCR Paulino — Fantasy Author Website

It includes dedicated book pages, sample chapters, author information, news and events, purchase links, and contact functionality, with a structure designed to support future titles and releases.

Donald Wehmeyer — Author Website

I designed and developed this website for author Donald Wehmeyer around The Discovery: A Pilgrimage of Gifts and Treasures. The visual direction is clean, thoughtful, and understated, reflecting the reflective and spiritual nature of his writing. The site features the book, author background, purchase links, a collection of short stories, and contact functionality, creating a simple and accessible platform for both his published work and ongoing writing.

Damon Barret Roe — Fantasy Author Website

I designed and developed this website for fantasy author Damon Barret Roe, creating a dark, atmospheric visual identity around the Moonhorn series. I also designed the custom author logo, using it as a key element of the broader brand system. The site combines dramatic imagery, gothic typography, and gold accents to establish a distinctive fantasy world while supporting the author’s long-term platform. It includes book promotion, a dedicated universe section, blog, newsletter, shop, forum, social links, and contact functionality.

Storyweaver — Mary Natale

I designed and developed this website for children’s author Mary Natale, using the charming illustrations from Tumbleweed, the Fairy Without Wings as the foundation for the visual direction. The site was designed to feel warm, whimsical, and storybook-like while remaining clear and easy to navigate for parents and readers. It features the book prominently, along with reviews, purchase links, author information, events, and contact details, creating a cohesive online home for Mary’s work and future stories.

Michael Owen — The Foundation

I designed and developed this author website for Michael Owen around his book The Foundation. The visual direction uses a clean, modern, masculine aesthetic, with strong contrast and bold imagery to support the book’s positioning. The site includes dedicated book content, reviews, excerpts, purchase links, newsletter signup, author information, and contact functionality, creating a focused platform for both book promotion and Michael’s broader author brand.

David Scott — Military Suspense Author Website

I designed and developed this website for military suspense author David Scott, creating a bold, cinematic visual identity that reflects the action-driven tone of his books. The site brings together book pages, excerpts, reviews, purchase links, a media kit, newsletter signup, blog content, and social media integration. I also incorporated strong imagery and a consistent dark, high-contrast design language to give the site a distinctive series-wide identity that can grow with future releases.

Marcia Treadway — Author Website

I designed and developed this website for author Marcia Treadway around her book Transcending the Heart. The visual direction uses a light, calm palette and editorial layout to reflect the book’s reflective, spiritual tone. The site includes dedicated book content, excerpts, reviews, purchase links, a blog, mailing list signup, and contact functionality, creating a clear and cohesive platform for Marcia’s work and ongoing writing.

Laurel Lorenzini — Children’s Author Website

I designed and developed this website for children’s author Laurel Lorenzini, using the playful visual language of A Hop by the Sea as the basis for the site’s identity. The design incorporates colorful illustrations, whimsical typography, and storybook-inspired layouts to create a warm and engaging experience for families and young readers. The site includes book information, author content, newsletter signup, purchase links, social media, and contact functionality, all within a cohesive visual world that can grow with future titles.

Arturas was critical in getting my WordPress site set up to run WooCommerce. He was respectful and considerate in responding to questions and even followed up after the contract officially ended.
