I like the website that was created. However, I thought I would be able to get assistance with marketing my book.

Hi Belinda, Glad to hear you are happy with your book website. That said, sorry to hear you had expectations on the marketing front -- While we have been refining our website builder to make sure it is the best it can be, we are also working on some new tools that will be a game-changer when it comes to marketing. Stay tuned:)

It was so easy to create my author website! I'm a technology challenged individual, but it only took me an hour to create a website that looks far more professional than the site I paid someone $300 to build and then another $300 to host. Best decision I've made in a long time. The only problem I had was connecting my MailerLite account, but Iliyah from Tertulia stuck with me and we got it resolved. She was so patient and understanding! And it turned out to be a MailerLite issue. I can't recommend this company enough!

The honesty and attempt to connect with what writers who are culture producers really need, especially when they are not making money and cannot afford a PR person, advertising and all that make for money making attention and getting readers.

As a very inexperienced website user, I am grateful for the help that you provide. I changed from WIX because there was no support at all! I also appreciate the friendliness and patience of your staff. Iilya is great!

I am an indie author. I struggled for ages to construct a website I loved. Despite doing multimedia courses. I found Tertulia through Ingram Spark. They are doing great work together. Within a few minutes, by uploading one of my books ISBN numbers, I was able to construct my website royhuntbooks.com. I love the layout and colouring. it's still a work in progress but they make it so easy to work on.

The programming is elegant, and the setup was fast, resulting in a completed author website within minutes. Support was also quick and helpful when I asked about connecting my email to the website to communicate with followers. Tertulia is great!
