Fact: Every author must have a website.
Truth: Not every author has the technical or creative savvy required to achieve this goal.
Lead by experienced web and content development professionals, this nuts-and-bolts session walks through the entire process of building the perfect author website, covering both the technical aspects of the author website – from acquiring a domain to development to basic content management – and the content creation required to meet the needs of an audience that ranges from agents and editors to journalists.

This is the best presentation I have attended at TOCCON. It was very meaty, a lot of actionable items to take away and use. It got to specifics and really did what this conference is about, it gave me tools. Too many presentations have talked in vague terms about the industry, not here.
Good work guys.
Did what it said on the tin. Engaging presentation – not too heavy for early in the morning.
