WELL, HELLO THERE!

I'M MARIA SARACEN

Fellow self-published author, brand strategist, and regional Emmy Award-winning TV producer.

I know how much heart it takes to bring a book to life — and how discouraging it feels when that story disappears into the Amazon void.

I created The No-Fuss Author Website to change that. It’s a simple, powerful, and affordable way for authors like you to show up proudly, grow your reader base, and give your work the professional home it deserves.

You’ve already done the hard part — now let’s make sure the world can actually see and enjoy your work!

👋 MEET MARIA, YOUR FELLOW AUTHOR

(TURNING PANIC INTO A PLAN — AND A TOOLKIT!)

As a lifelong book lover, bookstores are my happy place. But as a newly minted nonfiction author? They suddenly became a source of low-key panic! There are so many books. How on earth does anyone stand out?

Hi, I’m Maria Saracen 👋 —copywriter, branding strategist, and now, thrillingly, a self-published author.

In 2024, I wrote a passion-project book (under my maiden name) with one unexpected advantage: a small but mighty email list of around 2,000 subscribers (from a completely unrelated niche!).

To my surprise, that modest list was enough to nudge my book into an Amazon Top New Release in its category.

But here’s what I learned: without that list, I would’ve been lost in the algorithm soup! And even with it, there’s so much more to reaching readers and selling books.

That’s why I created The No-Fuss Author Website — a simple, affordable way to:
• Launch a professional author site
• Grow an email list of ideal readers
• Position every new book for success

I’ve got the blueprint; you add the color, voice, and spark to make it yours.

Hit publish, and you’ll have an author site you’re incredibly proud of—AND a welcoming way to connect with readers who will love your work.

YOUR READERS ARE SEARCHING. MAKE IT EASY TO FIND YOU.

Every day without a professional author site is a missed opportunity. Readers can’t find you, podcasters can’t book you, publishers can’t see your platform.

For a single payment of $47, launch a one-page author website you’re proud of — without stress, high cost, or unpolished design.

What Happens Next:

Once you complete your payment, you’ll get instant access to everything:

✅ Step-by-step tutorials

✅ Website + Canva templates

✅ A no-fuss workflow from start to publish

The big idea? In mere minutes, you’ll have everything you need to build a scroll-stopping online home that showcases your work, connects with readers, and opens doors to new opportunities.

100% Risk-Free Guarantee

Not sure if it’s right for you? No worries.
If you’re not completely satisfied within 14 days, email me for:
✅ A full refund, or
✅ Credit toward the Website Launch Concierge.

This toolkit helps you:

✅ Look like a serious, polished author
✅ Connect with your ideal readers
✅ Open doors to opportunities you've been dreaming of

The journey begins the moment you purchase. I can’t wait to see your new online home!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What's included in the No-Fuss Author Website kit?

You'll receive instant access to the complete toolkit, which includes:

  • A One-Page Systeme.io Website Template

  • Step-by-step video tutorials to help you customize

  • Editable Canva template files

  • The Brand Map for Authors workbook

  • 10 Canva logo templates

  • 40 genre-specific color palettes

  • Bonus: Thank You page; Blog post page; and, 3 legal placeholder page templates

Do I need any technical skills to use the templates?

My honest answer:
If you're already using Canva and Systeme.io, you're good to go!

If you’ve never used Systeme.io before, or need to brush up, I’ll point you to their best resources and let you know exactly what to do first. Some initial setup (like connecting your domain) is covered in their official training, and I’ll link you right to it.

That said, if you can drag-and-drop and use a word processor (which, as an author, I'm guessing you've mastered), chances are that with The No-Fuss Author Website you will be able to create a website you're proud to share. Both Canva and Systeme.io are designed to be user-friendly for non-techy people.

Once you’re past the basics of both platforms, my step-by-step videos walk you through everything related to the templates.


Plus, I include a visual, step-by-step workflow with the toolkit, so you always know what’s coming next.

Will this work for my genre?

Yes! Whether you write romance, fantasy, memoir, or children’s books, simply swap the images, fonts, and colors to match your brand. This toolkit is built for quick, high-level customization.

Will this work with WordPress, Wix, or any other platform?

Short answer: the template is built for Systeme.io.

While the Brand Map for Authors workbook, Canva logo templates, genre-specific color palettes, and Canva designs can be used with any platform, the real power of this toolkit lies in the website template itself—built specifically for Systeme.io.

If you're wondering why I chose Systeme.io, please check out the SECOND video on this page and read the next FAQ. I hope you'll be pleasantly surprised by how affordable, flexible, and user-friendly this platform really is!

What is Systeme.io and why are we using it?

Systeme.io is an all-in-one platform that makes creating websites incredibly simple. I chose it because:

  • It's free to start with generous allowances (one free website, 3 free funnels, up to 2,000 subscribers)

  • There are no complicated coding requirements

  • It's specifically designed to be user-friendly

  • It grows with your author business (email marketing, sales pages, etc.)

  • It has thousands of 5-star reviews on Trustpilot

  • It's what I use for my own business and I LOVE it!

Will I need to pay for Systeme.io?

Systeme.io offers a completely free plan that includes everything you need to get started with your first website. You can upgrade later if you want additional websites and/or features and to grow your email list beyond 2,000 subscribers.

Will I need to buy anything else to make this work?

The only additional purchase I highly recommend you make is a domain name (approximately $15-20/year), and for email marketing, an email address to go with it.

As far as Canva goes, all my templates are designed to work beautifully with their free plan. If you want more fonts, graphics or other features, you are welcome to upgrade to Canva's pro plan - but that is totally optional.

How do I get help if I get stuck?

My step-by-step videos will show you how to customize your templates, but if you have any questions, you can leave a comment in The No-Fuss Author Website modules or email me directly (I typically reply within 24hrs M-F). That said, this is a DIY, self-paced course.

Will my website work on mobile phones and tablets?

Yes, yes, and yes!!! Your Systeme.io website will be fully responsive and look great on all devices - from smartphones to desktop computers. This is super important as more and more readers browse on mobile devices.

Can I use this template for multiple websites?

This purchase is for a single website license. If you'd like to create websites for multiple authors or projects, please reach out to me about a multi-site license.

How can I use The No-Fuss Author Website?

These templates are for your use, to help you brand your own author business ONLY.

Please don’t:

❌ Resell, share or redistribute the templates to anyone (even edited)

❌ Use them for anyone else's business (including your clients)

❌ Claim them as your original work

Any questions? Ask me first, I’m here to help! Email support@saracencreative.com

What's your refund policy?

While many digital products are final sale, I want you to feel completely confident in your purchase. That’s why you have 14 days from your date of purchase to request a hassle-free refund.

Here’s how it works:

Dive into the toolkit, follow the step-by-step instructions and videos, and start building your brand and website.

If this is not the easy, affordable website solution you hoped for, no worries. Within 14 days of your purchase, you can:

✅ Get a full refund — no hoops, just a quick email.
✅ Or, apply your $47 toward my Website Launch Concierge (where I’ll personally walk you through setup).

Either way, it’s no fuss — just clarity, support, and your money back if it’s not a fit.

What if my enquiring mind needs to know more?

I'm here to share all the details you need! Shoot me a message and I'll reply as soon as humanly possible: support @ saracencreative.com
