From Manuscript to Platform

Authors

Every author needs more than a book cover online—they need a platform that turns browsers into readers. I design author websites that do the heavy lifting: sharp book presentation, series architecture that scales as the catalog grows, and conversion-focused newsletter capture that builds a launch audience before the next release drops. From debut thrillers to multi-book series, I pair clean design with the digital strategy that keeps readers coming back.

EBernarducci.com EBernarducci.com

Designed an author website centered on the launch of Reboot, the debut thriller and first book in Bernarducci’s planned “Lost Souls Series,” co-written with USA Today bestselling author Martha I. Finney. The cinematic, single-page site pairs a book trailer, gripping synopsis, and a “read chapter one” hook with reader reviews, retailer links, dual author bios, and social-share tools to build momentum for the series.

Where Browsing Becomes Buying

E-Commerce

Selling online is equal parts craft and strategy—the store has to convert, and the brand has to earn loyalty. I build e-commerce experiences that organize products around how people actually shop, weave in the social proof and storytelling that close the sale, and keep the whole thing discoverable through smart SEO. The goal is simple: a store that works as hard as the people behind it.

Design That Moves People

Non-Profits

Mission-driven work deserves more than a brochure site—it needs a platform that rallies people to act. I design for non-profits with a clear job in mind: move visitors to volunteer, donate, register, and spread the word. By pairing purposeful design with strategy built around engagement and conversion, I help organizations turn belief into momentum and momentum into measurable support.

The site pairs an earthy, conservation-focused aesthetic with impact metrics, a focus-species showcase, board profiles, and clear pathways to become a member, volunteer, register a botanical sanctuary, or donate.

Built to Book

Service Providers

For service providers, a website is a working asset—it has to book the appointment, fill the class, and earn trust before the first conversation. I design sites that map services clearly, build credibility fast, and remove every barrier between a prospective client and “yes.” Backed by local SEO and ongoing optimization, these platforms don’t just look the part—they bring the right people through the door.

Many Ventures, One Home

Creatives

Some clients aren’t one thing—they’re a book, a podcast, a course, a community, and a movement, all at once. For creatives with sprawling online presences, I build the connective tissue: cohesive branding and site architecture that unify every venture without flattening what makes each one distinct. The result is a digital home that makes sense of complexity and guides visitors exactly where they need to go.
