Every issue on a shelf of your own

Besides a reading link for each issue, Zinewright gives you a shelf: a public page at zinewright.com/c/your-name that collects everything you publish. The newest issue comes first, earlier ones follow, with your name, a short description, logo and colour.

Updates by itself when you publish, withdraw or delete an issue
Pick its address; rename it later and old links keep working
Kept out of search engines until you choose to list it
Included on every plan, the free trial too

Want a site that is entirely yours?

For clubs and presses that want more than the standard shelf, we design and build custom sites: your own visual identity and domain, several languages and special sections, linked to the issues you publish with Zinewright. Quoted per project, separately from the plans.
