Question 1

How much does AuthorPage cost?

Accepted Answer

Free plan is $0/month forever — yourname.authorpage.co subdomain, unlimited books, direct sales with 75% to author. Pro is $5/month (₹400/mo in India) for custom domain and 85% revenue. Max is $10/month (₹750/mo) for blog, newsletter, advanced analytics, and 90% revenue. 14-day free trial on paid plans.

Question 2

Can I use my own domain (yourname.com) with AuthorPage?

Accepted Answer

Yes, on Pro and Max. Point your domain via CNAME, click Verify, and free SSL is provisioned automatically. Most setups complete in under 10 minutes. Free plan uses a yourname.authorpage.co subdomain.

Question 3

Can I sell ebooks directly from my AuthorPage site?

Accepted Answer

Yes, on every plan. Stripe and Razorpay are wired in. Upload your EPUB, PDF, or MOBI, set the price, customers get a signed download link after purchase. Author keeps 75% on Free, 85% on Pro, 90% on Max — compared to Amazon's 30-65% take. You also keep the customer email.

Question 4

Does AuthorPage have a blog?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Multi-post blog with categories, SEO meta fields, RSS feed at /rss, auto-slug generation, and Article schema markup. Rich text editor (TipTap) is rolling out.

Question 5

Does AuthorPage handle the mailing list?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Built-in signup form, subscriber CSV export, welcome email automation, and 'new post' auto-broadcast. Powered by EmailMate (our SES-backed email infrastructure). Or embed an existing Substack, Mailchimp, or ConvertKit signup widget.

Question 6

How is AuthorPage different from Squarespace, Wix, or Carrd?

Accepted Answer

Squarespace and Wix don't know what a book is — you build a generic Products page and pretend each book is a SKU. Carrd is a single-page link-in-bio with no blog or store. AuthorPage is built around the book object: covers, editions, ISBN, series, retailer buy links — all native concepts. Same polished feel for $5/month vs Squarespace's $16.

Question 7

Does AuthorPage have an RSS feed?

Accepted Answer

Yes. /rss returns the blog feed. Use it for Substack import, ConvertKit broadcast triggers, podcast cross-posting, or Feedly subscribers. Article schema is also emitted on every post for Google News and Discover.

Question 8

Is AuthorPage available in India?

Accepted Answer

Yes. INR pricing is true regional pricing, not USD-converted: Pro at ₹400/month, Max at ₹750/month. Razorpay accepts UPI, cards, and net banking. Most Indian authors launch in under an hour.
