Ghostwriters face a unique marketing challenge: your best work has someone else's name on it. A professional ghostwriter website design solves this by showcasing your range, your process, and your professionalism.

Ghostwriter websites need to sell capability without violating client confidentiality. We build portfolio sections that showcase published work (with permission), anonymized case studies, and writing samples that demonstrate range.

Service pages clarify what types of writing you offer and what the engagement looks like. Book ghostwriting, blog content, speeches, thought leadership articles, white papers — each service page explains the process and timeline.

The inquiry form for a ghostwriter is a qualifying tool. We design it to capture project type, scope, timeline, and budget range.

Testimonials from previous clients are gold. Even a handful of named endorsements dramatically increases credibility.

Genre and format expertise pages attract the right clients. A page dedicated to "Business Book Ghostwriting" targets executives searching for book help, while "Blog Content Writing" attracts marketing managers. Different services, different clients, different price points — each deserves its own page.

A process overview page sets expectations and reduces project anxiety. Clients hiring a ghostwriter have never done it before. Walking them through your process — discovery call, outline, drafts, revisions, final delivery — makes the unfamiliar feel manageable.

I went from cold-pitching on LinkedIn to getting inbound inquiries from my website. The process overview page is what does it — clients feel comfortable hiring me because they understand exactly how the engagement works.
